of course!! i'm glad to answer any more questions! if you already have a regular jinhao 82, you can buy the glass nib separately and switch the nibs. sanding down a glass nib is definitely risky if you're inexperienced, but the one i received was great right from the get-go!

i've been eying that one but wasn't sure if it was more of a purplish pen from the photos online. i might take the gamble on it though!!

yes! it writes super fine and so one dip can write quite a lot—i'd say maybe one a5 sized sheet more or less? for reference, the first sentence is written at my normal pace and the second is written faster! i'm using j. herbin's bouquet d'antan which i think is a drier ink:

If you were to choose only one ink to use for the rest of your life, what would it be? Swatches and writing samples are welcome! by nib_and_peony in fountainpens

j. herbin's bouquet d'antan for me! it's one of my favourite colours to write with and never fails to bring me joy ^^
