    Default Jinhao 159 with size 5 nib

    Does anyone want a Jinhao 159 in Yellow with a size 5 nib? I got it in Goulet's BOGO sale and find this pen to be just too big for me.

    I'll give it a good home.
    I don't have a single JinHao.

    And they take Jowo #6 nibs.

    From Goulet's Specs http://www.gouletpens.com/jinhao-159.../JIN-159-Black

    Diameter - Body 16mm
    Diameter - Cap (without clip) 18mm
    Diameter - Cap (with clip) 20mm
    Diameter - Grip 12mm
    Length - Body 126mm
    Length - Cap 72mm
    Length - Nib 22mm
    Length - Overall (Closed) 149mm
    Length - Overall (Posted) 163mm
    Weight - Body 31g
    Weight - Cap 19g

    (By comparison a Pelikan M800 is about 30g, and the M1000 is 35g, a Montblanc 149 around 38g)

    If still available, I would be interested. I've looked at those pens a lot, but ended up with a metropolitan.

    Want to give a "Thank You!" shout out to Pickwick.
    Got the 159 yesterday, and it's my first JinHao pen ever.
    It's... BIG.
