Similar to a TWSBI piston filler. Not quite so well made but perfectly acceptable, and a steal at the price. I wish there was a medium or broad nib option, although these fine nibs are not super-fine, and at the low price it's worth risking tuning the nibs to make them a bit wetter. They are not scratchy and I've had no problems with skipping or dry starts. They hold a load of ink and I think they look pretty smart. Well worth a buy.

La transparence du corps est un véritable plus pour reconnaître ses tonalités dans les brushsEn sumi-e par exemple avec des dilutions différentes.Il faut penser à agiter quand on ne s'en ai pas servi quelques jours sinon c'est un trait très sec.Pas de fuites au bouchon dévissable, si stockage vertical l'encre descend par gravité dans le bouchon donc bien penser à stocker à l'horizontale.Avec des encres indélébile : acrylique/ chineil faut penser a nettoyer si inutilisé pendant plusieurs jours afin de ne pas endommager la pointe en fibres synthétiques.Ces brosses sont précises et en même temps relativement souples permettant en croquis des traits rapides et expressifs ou à contrario avec de la lenteur et du contrôle des pressions continues donnant plus de stabilité.j'estime le trait le plus fin à 0,4 mm et le plus large en pleine pression à 0,5 cm voir presque1 cm de manière irrégulieres avec le la brosse peu inclinée par rapport au papier.Ces stylos me permettent de travailler en continue, le débit est bon et si j'ai besoin d'un peu plus d'humidité je peux tourner le piston et faire descendre plus d'encre dans la mine ou aller jusqu'à faire descendre une goutte sur le papier et alors la manier comme en aquarelle.Je ne peux pas les comparer à des pinceaux à eaux à corps souples, c'est un peu différent.Le débit est plus dense/régulier, la prise en main agréable car pas trop gros en main est plus classique on ne risque pas de dilution par excès de pression ou d'auréoles sauf si vraiment recherchées, c'est un outil à part, plus proche d'un pocket brush pentel à cartouche interchangeable mais avec l'avantage d'être moins cher et surtout personnalisable.Avant pour la même chose je devais utiliser plusieurs pinceaux, nettoyage entre prise d'encre ,et les coupelles avec les différentes dilutions, la on reste dans la spontanéité une fois préparer, et c'est super, on peut préparer des gammes ou des palettes restreintes en ayant plusieurs set.Le nettoyage est relativement aisé tout une partie du corps est démontable.Je peux mettre de l'eau tiède légèrement savonneuse (sans détergent) dedans et après quelques instants et après l'avoir agité j'exerçe des tours sur le piston pour nettoyer le réservoir et la brush jusqu'à disparition des pigments ou colorants, des traces résiduelles peuvent rester surtout avec certains phtalo mais ils ne gêneront pas lors du prochain remplissage je m'en assure en pompant avec le piston dans de l'eau claire.Dommage qu'il ne vendent pas d'autres tailles ou d'autres dureté de mines c'est le seul point négatif.

At just over $3 a pen, these are functional pens that handily exceeded my expectations at this price point. Looks like some folks got lemons or older (or just different) versions.Fit and finish was better than I expected for three bucks. They are obviously rough TWSBI eco knockoffs. The plastic body and internals definitely feel less substantial and in build and material choice compared to the name brand, and the overall qc is not on the same level as the TWSBI... but they're also roughly ten times cheaper and you get what you pay for.I cleaned these before I used them (ran water through them, nothing more) and added some silicone grease to the piston to minimize the chances of piston leaks. Others have mentioned these cannot be disassembled for cleaning. The set I received can be, the top silver ring unscrews--see pics.The nib and feed look very similar to Pilot's Metropolitan setup, and I must admit I adore the clear feed material choice. Makes inks really pop. Seem to be somewhat wet writers, though I had to make a couple minor nib adjustments (if the two halves of the tip are not aligned, its pretty simple to lightly flex the lower one up--gently, of course--until they match).Writing pics: the one with three reddish sentences are, top to bottom, Metropolitan fine tip, these pens, and a pilot medium.The four multicolored sentences are the four pens I recieved in this order. Not a super fair comparison as the inks were different, but it should give a pretty good idea or consistency.Pic with two pens (pink end and other with red cap end) is one of these pens next to a TWSBI Eco.I didn't find it terribly easy to post the cap (place on and off the rear of the pen), and it seemed a bit unstable, but whatever. I actually prefer using them without for balance.I have no idea how long they'll last, but at this price point it hardly matters.So far they're consistent writers, and no leaks. I don't know if I'm going to trust them yet in the pocket of a good piece of clothing, but they're nice beaters for around the house, and so far an excellent value for the spend.

I just needed some cheap pens I could loose without crying. I picked up these fountain pens and I am surprised by how much I like them. Inked up all four with different colour inks - love how easy it is to colour match the ink to the pen. Simple to use. Writes smoothly for an extra fine nib, but a nice, crisp line even on cheap paper. Hold quite a bit of ink too, compared to a regular converter or cartridge.The only thing they could do better is the instructions. You have to snap the twist thingy into the pen or it risks leaking. Then snap it out to fill the pen. Like how the rose on an analogue watch needs to snap in and out to adjust the time.Once you figure that out, these are very low fuss fountain pens. Perfect for those who are new to fountain pens or someone like me that just needs a pen that works well but wouldn't break the bank to lose.

I have used fountain pens my whole life, for both writing and drawing. The slight drag created by the friction of the pen nib on the paper gives me the control I want. Ballpoint pens are slippery by comparison.The Wing Sung 3008 Piston is a great pen, But it needs to be said, this is a fountain pen, not a ballpoint pen. You must never pull off the cover. That creates a vacuum that will suck the ink out and give the impression the pen leaks. Always unscrew the cover.The price is a true bargain for this quality fountain pen. I have paid many times more for less. The filling mechanism works easily, and eliminates pesky cartridges. My Win Sung 3008 can cover a whole page with a continuous line without skipping or blotting. It has a good feel, and is balanced well.For anyone not used to a fountain pen you need to know that a certain amount of care and maintenance is needed that is unnecessary with a ballpoint pen. First, you are dealing with liquid ink, so caution is required. Never fill your pen over a surface you haven't covered. Better still, a sink is a good place, then you can easily wipe up any drops or spillage. Secondly, you need to wipe the pen tip carefully after filling.And flush out the cartridge between fillings. Fill it up several time with water until the chamber is clear, then fill it with ink. It is natural for ink to dry on the pen tip slightly. Flushing it between fillings clears that up. If you do not use your pen for some time, it may dry out enough to cause it to skip or even clog. Flush out the old ink and refill it. It is also a good idea to flush a new pen before filling it. Flushing keeps a pen working smoothly.Every pen will leave tiny drops in the cover. Most pens do not have a transparent cover, so you cannot see them. They may leave a residue on the pen that stains your fingers. The cover is easily cleaned with a a twisted tissue.Once you start using your pen in public, it is surprising how many people comment about it. Having a good fountain pen is a joy. The sheer weight of it inspires confidence. The nib will slowly wear into he perfect angle for your writing style. It's like a violin, it gets better the more you use it.I have tried many brands of fountain pens. The Wing Sung 3008 is a true gem.
