There's also a Jinhao A10 that just came out that's another take on Pilot VP. I wonder how the two knock-offs compare.

I'm sure others have reviews too, but "Doodlebud" (YouTube) does a good job with these. His videos dig deep into the product design and engineering, and I like that he can zoom in (literally and figuritively) into where cost saving measures affect the final product. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZe8...
