What kind of feeling can a good pen give us when practicing calligraphy? You can imagine "The most wonderful thing in the world is to be in front of the desk on a quiet afternoon, with the pen tip rubbing against the paper, and the ink marks quietly recording My thoughts." He can write about your life and record your views on the world. He can spit out ink, piece together words, and tell everything. But it’s quite difficult to choose a pen that you like.
1. Hero 100 Golden Tips
Domestic products, heirlooms
Price: 150 (plus or minus 50 yuan), the lowest price on JD.com is 99.
Hero pen, these three words can be said to be the memory of the older generation.
To this day, if we talk about the classics of hero pens, apart from the hero 616, which "buys one at a time, and buys one magic pen every ten times on average", the most classic pen is the hero 100.
Tracing back to its origins, the Hero 100 was a product of the redesign of the popular "100 Hero" by the "Hero Gold Pen Factory" in 1962, and the "100 Hero" imitated the industrial shape of the "Parker 51".
There is also an interesting episode: after the Hero 100 was put into production, all qualities were excellent, and Parker was superior in metal polishing technology. To this end, Parker sent people to China to study.
In the pen circle, they jokingly call it the "heirloom pen".
Tudou once had one on his hand, which was handed down from his father after spending nearly 20 years with it. The writing experience of 20 years of running-in was really unforgettable. Later, he was afraid of damaging it, so he decisively collected it.
Regardless of the sentiments of the times, it is a masterpiece of a heroic pen.
We can say that even in today's fountain pen market, Hero 100 still has good writing quality and competitiveness.
And if you have never used a fountain pen before, or have lost confidence in the national pen, then this one must be the best choice for sentiment and practicality.
Of course, in addition to the above factors, supporting domestic products is not a reason, at least it can be passed down to the family!
2. Baile 78g/88g
Chinese writing is as smooth as silk
Price: When it first entered China, it only cost 50 yuan. Later, the price increased because it became so easy to use, and now it is basically stable at around 60-80 yuan. The lowest price for 88g is 100, and the normal price is 110-130.
Baile 78g = a must-have for beginners. If you are even remotely interested in fountain pens, you will definitely know about this product. Baile is a well-known stationery manufacturer in Japan, so Baile 78g is a Japanese pen.
3. Schneider k402
Affordable and smooth, a conscientious work of European pens
Price: 19 yuan! At 19 yuan, you can’t suffer a loss or be cheated! It's pretty cheap anyway. K406 is more expensive, around 30-40 yuan.
If you have never used a fountain pen and don’t pay much attention to stationery, and want to spend more than 20-30 yuan to buy a good pen, then Schneider k402 and 406 are definitely your best choice. Except it’s ugly!
K402 and K406 are both low-end brands in the Schneider pen series. The design and material of the pen body have been criticized in major reviews. However, the most important part of the pen tip adheres to the consistent German precision and has extraordinary smoothness. It is slippery, coupled with the inherent advantage of European-style pens with a large water discharge, which fully satisfies your desire to write with just one stroke.
Everyone is impetuous when practicing calligraphy. At this time, you hold a favorite pen and a stack of white paper, feel the strokes of the pen and the different feedback of each pen, and enjoy the "heavy" and "light" of the words. ”, admiring the beauty of the pen, slowly, my heart calmed down. There are a lot of pen pits. I hope you can choose a pen that suits you and go further and further in practicing calligraphy.
