I ordered one since I was curious about the Sailor Pro Gear Slim when it was a lot cheaper. I’ll see how it feels in the hand since so many pens are uncomfortably heavy (Pilot Metropolitan) or wide (TWSBI Eco).
They’re pretty smooth writers out of the box. I used to hate Jinhao because all the pens I got had dud nibs, but they’ve improved vastly in QC. The five Jinhao 82s I got all wrote nicely when I inked them.
Jinhao 82. Cheap-ass Sailor Pro Gear clones.

How smoothly do they write? Love my Jinhao 51A pens.

To be fair, I have only inked half of them and I use them as guinea pigs for nib swaps. So I don’t really know :D
