I have the Jinhao set recommended in this article. It writes nicely and feels great in my hand but it leaks if handled roughly and it dries out sitting on my desk. None of my TWISBI pens have those problems. They might leak into the cap a bit with rapid pressure changes like on a plane ride but otherwise they are much more solid.
Good to know! I just ordered a few Jinhao 82s to try out and give to my friends who don’t use fountain pens (yet), but if they are problematic with leakages in flight, two of them won’t be using them.
