After a quick flush to the nib and feed, it writes beautifully. I was expecting a dry writer, and I was ready to nib swap, but it's quite wet and smooth.

I filled it with Rohrer & Klingner Verdigris, it's a beautiful tealish-blue black ink.

My writing still sucks though.

My current #fountainpen collection, here are the good ones:

Majohn T5
Pelikan m600
Pelikan m205
Parket Sonnet
Penbbs 494

There's Pilot, Lamy and some Jinhao pens also not in this case.

The #notebook is #Meteksan Colors. It's a fountain pen compliant notebook for the price, it's a local Turkish company. It was like $0.4 / 60 sheet A5 size. Now it's like $1.3 / piece. It's my everyday crapbook.

The fun nuance is that Majohn / Moonman directly ripped off the Lamy's slogan, only changed the country name from Germany 🇩🇪 to China 🇨🇳 😂😄

(The second photo is the box I received Majohn T5 with today)

After a while, I believe the nib felt dry, so I decided to first make the tines wider to wetten, but it didn't work out. Then I swapped the nib with a Jinhao one.

One would consider Jinhao as a cheap pen brand, but by my chance this #6 nib is one of the best nibs I've ever used!
