  • Опубликовано: 6 авг 2024
  • My Channel has reached TWO MILLION VIEWS! So I'm giving away this new Asvine V126 Vac-filler. I do a shoot-out with other vac-fillers. I talk about the parts and features of the pen, provide some size comparisons and measurements, and then do a writing sample. After the writing sample, I talk about what I like and what I don't like about the pen. Please feel free to use the chapters provided below to skip to various parts of the review.

    wow. I gotta get one of these. This was just the type of review I was looking for, and most importantly, it wasn't sponsored by Asvine showing this is an honest review.

    With all the grandeur of an elephant.
    And while I hope to win the prize,
    I am not just a sycophant.
    This is the bright spot of my Saturday:
    Good pens and cheerful lingo.
    Though I may buy it anyway,
    That Asvine's cool, so - Bingo!

  • @jaywoodmann2042
    @jaywoodmann2042 Год назад +1

    I just got this pen today, it comes pretty close to a custom 823 except for the nib. I still like the fit & finnish of the 823 better but for a tenth of the price, this pen is an absolute winner.

  • @DigitalMoonlight
    @DigitalMoonlight Год назад +1

    Great review as always. I'm pleased that these are all using the same mechanism, should be easy and cheap to get a hold of parts if there's ever a failure. If I win, I promise to say BINGO on every fill.

    I will simply say that because of you, I went from 0 fountain pens to 40 (shared with girlfriend). I'm still a student without a lot of money to burn, but you made me realize that I could still collect extraordinary pens without costing a fortune. I started with Chinese pens and am now restoring old vintage pens because of you. Oh, and Bingo.

    In truth, I really enjoy these videos Doug and in large part that's due to your personality. But the videos are also full of useful and practical information that has inspired me to purchase four pens that I would not otherwise own, each one of which cost me less than ten bucks (US) including shipping. So thanks so much and BINGO.

    @paulmchugh1430 Год назад +2

    Marvelous presentation. Nicely detailed review. Great comparison. Wonderful presenter. Did I do well?
    It is certainly a pen I would consider. As I have the Nahvalur Original Plus, it is great I see this pen will post, not that I will but it is a nice option that others do not do.
    I do not have a Medium nib, so I would love to use it.
    I have asa-gao ink, with is pen will match with the ink quite well.
    Thank you again for a wonderful video, Doug.
    BINGO!

    I've been really impressed with the quality of Chinese pens over the past couple years Asvine (Hongdian) and Mahjon (Moonman) have been putting out excellent pens at their price point. Add the ability to nib swap some of them to something of a higher quality, and you've got a great pen with the same writing experience as a pen worth much more.

    • @larsgottlieb
      @larsgottlieb Год назад +2

      Agreed! I've bought five new Chinese pens this winter, and all of them are really nice writers, and punch way above their cost

    I like the depth of your reviews, certainly I learn a lot of the fountain pens you are reviewed and help me tremendously in my new purchases. I'm not new to fountain pens but I used them a lot of in my elementary and middle school then came the switch to roller pens and my cursive went to hell👺.
    Now I'm coming back to them with that nostalgic sentiment of a time when good and smooth writing was important. It is relaxing and all the time I gravitate to the container were I keep my pens, inks and good paper.
    Thank you for your time is appreciated.

Thankyou for all the brilliant videos, bingo!

    Another great review, Doug. Total plus that all of these vac fillers have interchangeable parts. I have a Narwhal Original + and totally agree with you about the posting issue of its cap. Fortunately, it's large enough that unposted it writes very comfortably. Good luck to all. Bingo!
