Perfect gift for writers
I ordered two with custom engraving for my colleagues. They arrived quickly and the engraving was precise. Both recipients love using them for signing documents and note-taking.

Smooth writer with great flow
I was skeptical about the price point, but this pen rivals some much more expensive brands. The ink flow is consistent, and there is no scratching on the paper. A fantastic purchase.

Solid pen, minor aesthetic quirks
The writing experience is top-notch. There are very slight molding lines on the barrel, which adds to the vintage charm but might bother perfectionists. Functionally, it is perfect.

A timeless classic for everyday writing
This pen writes incredibly smoothly right out of the box. The hooded nib prevents the ink from drying out even if I leave it uncapped for a few minutes. Perfect for my daily journaling.

Nostalgic and reliable
Reminds me of the pens used in school decades ago. The build quality is solid, and the iridium tip provides a consistent line width. Highly recommended for vintage enthusiasts.

Great value for students
Bought this for my daughter's calligraphy practice. It holds ink well and the grip is comfortable. The only reason for 4 stars is that the cap can be a bit tight initially, but it loosened up with use.
Q: Can I use standard international ink cartridges with this?
A: This model primarily uses a proprietary squeeze filler or converter. While some users adapt international cartridges, we recommend using the included converter for best performance.
Q: Is the body made of metal or plastic?
A: The body is made of high-quality durable resin, which makes it lightweight for extended writing sessions while maintaining a classic aesthetic.
Q: How long does the custom engraving take?
A: Custom engraving usually adds 2-3 business days to the processing time before shipment. You will receive a proof for approval before we proceed.
Q: Does this pen come with ink included?
A: The pen typically comes with a converter installed, but ink cartridges or bottled ink are sold separately depending on the specific package selection.
Q: Is the nib size adjustable or fixed?
A: The Hero 616 features a fixed fine-to-medium nib size, which is standard for this model and ideal for both English cursive and Chinese character practice.
