Asvine V200 Fountain Pen Review - Pen Wars

My review and thoughts of the Asvine V200 Fountain Pen.
Thanks for watching!

Your view on these cheaper “copycats” is very interesting especially considering somehow these pens get you to buy the legit version more than being simply a replacement. I too myself like cheaper pens since imo they are GREAT introductions for people to try and get into the hobby. I honestly like gifting Asvin more than safari as someone’s first pen just because how reliable and juicy these pens are. (Safari is juicy too but they are also kinda ugly lmao😅) I’m also obsessed with buying cheaper pens and find it extremely satisfying when I get a cheap a** pen that happens to be a banger writer aka pilot 78g. I do also own a few more expensive ones but the feeling you get when a cheap pen writes well is just not the same when an expensive pen writes well 😂

Feeling I get with my Jinhao x159 and 82. I mean… bloody cheap and both medium nibs on those sing in Claire fountain paper. I love them. Use them more than my MBs.

[@Oyst8Y6h]

@@nccastro653 lmao I hate to admit but i definitely use my jinhao more than my MB too🤣 so totally with you on that one haha

I really appreciate your channel and your videos… you take a lot of time and care in your reviews and it kind of cracks me up how you agonize over points and whether you are being fair… it’s very sweet. Nice work.

Yeah the points are mostly my subjective opinions but I still care about them a lot. Thanks for the comment and watching! I appreciate it!

Weird thought! What if those 2 black O rings are spare O rings for pen.? 😮 Because O rings tend to damage after some time. So you have 2 spare O rings comes with your pen?

[@alexedward1400]

the sale representative from Asvine said that the rubber rings on tail was to better hold the cap when you put it on

[@CollinsWonder]

Thanks for sharing!

[@santauxia]

At $45 I don't consider it a cheap pen. The O rings falling off all the time its a no no. What ink do you have in that Twsbi mini?

[@millomancho]

Hi man...if i want to buy it, i should choose better the Asvine nib than the bock one? I've watched several Reviews about the v200 which seems to go in rhat way

[@CollinsWonder]

I am going to make a future video about this, I personally prefer the Asvine nibs. They seem to just work better for me and can handle more inks.

[@DKW-f7z]

I have had no issues with the Bock fine nib. Writes great! It’s smooth and plenty wet. Love it!

[@magnoliamike]

What size nib fine extra fine?

[@CollinsWonder]

It’s a fine nib!

[@michaelmaccalla6701]

It is not a copy of the configuration, it shares some design elements appearance wise is all. The configuration is a bulk filler, this one is a vac filler

[@MR_THINQ]

The term is ‘post’ and not ‘cap’.

[@CollinsWonder]

Yeah I used the wrong word at the start of the video, I use the correct word “post” at 11 mins. Sometimes I think one thing and say another, this is one of those times. Thanks for keeping me honest :)

[@wizard7314]

There's no "correct" term for it... yeesh.
