Solid everyday pen
Good weight and balance. It takes a moment to get used to the cartridge change mechanism, but once you know how, it's easy. Writes consistently right from the first stroke.

Great value, smooth writer
Very impressed with the build quality for the price. The direct liquid flow works well. I deducted one star only because the small cartridges run out a bit quickly for heavy users.

Perfect for my daughter's handwriting practice
I bought this for my 9-year-old who is learning cursive. The EF nib is smooth but controlled, preventing ink blobs. The retractable feature means she doesn't lose the cap anymore!

Love the free engraving!
Ordered this as a gift for a student teacher. The engraving was crisp and professional. The pen itself writes beautifully and feels comfortable in the hand during long grading sessions.

Teacher approved!
I recommended this to my entire class. It's durable enough for kids but elegant enough for adults. The fact that it retracts saves so much time in the classroom.

Excellent for fine detail work
As someone who does bullet journaling, the extra fine nib is exactly what I needed. It glides across the paper without feathering. The retractable design is very convenient for travel.
Q: What should I do if the pen stops writing after sitting unused?
A: If the pen hasn't been used for a while, try scribbling on scrap paper to restart the flow. If that fails, rinse the nib section with cool water and let it dry before inserting a new cartridge.
Q: Is the nib made of steel or gold?
A: The nib is made of high-quality stainless steel, which provides durability and consistent flow suitable for daily use by students and adults.
Q: Can I use standard international cartridges with this model?
A: No, the Dianshi 784 is specifically designed for small proprietary cartridges. Standard international cartridges will not fit.
Q: How long does the free engraving take to process?
A: Engraving typically adds 1-2 business days to the processing time before shipment. You will receive a proof via email if complex text is requested.
Q: Does this pen come with ink cartridges included?
A: Yes, the package includes two small blue ink cartridges to get you started immediately.
