Just right!
I used to travel to China a lot, and I liked to pick up fountain pens while I was there, because they were inexpensive and good for writing Chinese characters. I ended up with a good number of them, and at one point, I picked out my favorite- a Hero 616. I used it off and on for ten years. At some point, I picked up a TWSBI fountain pen, as well, but I kept gravitating back to the Hero. I guess I just like the feel of it- kudos to the original Parker design, I suppose- haven't used the pen this one is copied from.I lost my old Hero a couple of weeks ago, so I thought I'd see if this was the same pen. Sure enough! It seems to start readily, has a fine but not too fine line, and decently smooth. I'm glad to be able to buy one of these and have it shipped to me from across the world for under $7.

Looks Cool, Very hit or miss quality, crappy ink converter, but it it's ridiculously cheap,
bought a green one and a maroon one. The green one writes fine, but the maroon one was a bit leaky. The pens look cool and expensive, but feel a bit light and cheap when you pick them up. I got fine point. Its about the same as a Japanese (pilot) medium. I also bought the "Dr" version of this pen. It seems like it might be a slightly bit better in quality. It had a thinner barrel, so parts are probably not interchangeable. All of them had one major problem, The convertor. It is a convertor only pen, and the convertors are terrible. They have very little capacity, and don't want to fill much past half full if that. I suppose it could be converted to an eyedropper pen, but there is a small vent hole on the ens of the barrel that would have to be filled in, and I was getting some leakage from one around the nib, so I don't know if I would trust it as an eyedropper. QC is very variable from pen to pen, but There not really any hooded nib pens in this price range to compare to, so I would buy 2-3 and one of them at least should be serviceable. I really like the way they look, and for the price I wasn't expecting Japanese quality, so I feel they are a reasonable value and am fairly satisfied with them.If you aren't set on a Parker style hooded nib, and are just looking for a cool and cheap (under $20) FP, this is probably not what you are looking for.2 good alternatives are...The Jinhao x750 or it's clone the Bulow X750 are nice heavy Brass filled all metal Executive-CEO type pens. They are of much better quality. You can get them individually for about 7, or in a 5 pack of different colour finishes for 38. they also can take nemosine, knox or goulet pens #6 nibs in different widths and tip styles. I bought the Bulow 5 pack and I love them.For about 15-18 you can get a Japanese made Pilot Metropolitan. It has a metal case, but it is aluminum, so not as heavy as the bulow/jinhao. They are available in several different finishes and colours. I cannot say enough good things about them.

Excellent pen
This pen looks nice and writes very nicely - smooth and easy. Filling is easy, too. Great price and I am quite impressed.

Terrible Pen
The pen does not accept cartridges, for those who were wondering. The pen is extremely light which makes it uncomfortable to write with. The pen is made of cheap plastic which comes with scratches on it. I personally threw the pen away 20 minutes after i received it because once i inked it up with the cheap converter, the nib began leaking ink in drops which got on my clothes and desk. I strongly suggest you do not buy this pen, even though it is cheap it is still a waste of money.

Not quite a Parker, but far from an insult to the Icon
I love my 51, but after I put a scratch in the barrel, I decided to consign it to mostly home/special occasion use, and set off in search of a daily writer in the same style. I know the market for Parker knock-offs is extensive, and I have only tried this one, but I must say, I am impressed. The nib lays a Western fine line, and, in keeping with the tradition of its inspiration, is stiff as a nail; don't expect any swooping calligraphy here. That said, it is an almost tediously reliable starter, and pleasant enough writer, if a bit on the scratchy side (this is mostly a matter of aesthetics; it has little impact on the writing itself). For this reason, I am skeptical about the description's claim of a gold-plated nib. The small portion that protrudes from the hood does not look particularly gold-like to me, but I have not disassembled then pen to make sure. If I ever do, I shall update the review, but it writes well enough that I am not overly concerned.All in all, a solid, solid pen. The wine red barrel is gorgeous, though a bit thin in places (for example, the feed is a visible discoloration through the hood. From a distance, it could easily be mistaken for a genuine Parker, even bearing a no doubt copyright-infringing Parker Arrow clip. In hand, it is lighter, but still feels good between the fingers.As a final note, I will say that after I first inked the pen, I did notice a few drops of ink on the hood, perhaps spatter from the nib, perhaps a leak in the sac. After the first few days of use, the problem went away, but I shall update the review if I see anything further.

Get It!
I love this Parker 51 like fountain pen! Feels great in the hand and draws a clean thin line. Took a while to get here but worth the wait.

A best thing money can buy.
This pen is a best thing money can buy, which is reminiscent of the days when I was a young student.

Smooth Writing but leaks
I have been using Lamy Safari for some time. Don't like the grip, so decided to try something else. Vanishing nib struck my fancy and upon a friend's recommendation decided to give it a try. 7$ shouldn't hurt much if I don't like it. Received it today and it become my instant favorite. Ink filling is easy and no use-n-throw refills = less plastic waste. The writing is ultra smooth! I wanted to like it very much but it leaks a lot. Sadly this is sitting in my desk and not traveling with me.

Ottima
Penna economica di ottima fattura. Tenete presente che funziona solo con la propria vescichetta interna , non e' possibile usarla con le cartucce d'inchiostro e ci vuole un po' di manualita' per riempirla all'80%. Vi consiglio di togliere la protezione in alluminio e premere la vescichetta partendo dalla punta verso la coda della stessa. Una ricarica dura comodamente una settimana, percio' vale la pena.4 stelle perche' non era indicata la misura del pennino, in questo caso extrafine.

Great Value for money
Be it a knock off of Parker 51. But when i came across these “Hero” pens when at school in 1980s back in India. These were the best and among the most expensive pens school kids could own. I remember their build quality and performance was the best. One of my favourites.Fast forward to 2016 in UK.. thought i should get back into fountain pens, was spoiled with choice.. Checked out for “Hero” fountain pens… discovered that these are among the cheapest pens you could buy.. ordered a couple.. but they were really cheap and don’t remember where they ended up. Both were scratchy. Surly there are multiple manufacturers of these…Fast forward 2023…Thought i should give these another try… This time i got lucky.. just like the old days.. its a fine but a wet writer.. a bit feedbacky.. but still pleasant.. it has lost much of its roughness because of constant use.I love it and go back to it,, and every time i like it more.

Good pen, good seller.
This is the genuine product (beware of fakes on the market). This one has no leaks, the cap sits firm, and it writes smoothly. The line is close to a western fine. Because it's a dry writer, use a lubricated ink or something well-behaved like Pilot Blue Black or Monteverde Horizon Blue.Ordered in March, arrived in July. The seller was communicative in the meantime.
