JEBs Mana Fountain Pen
About the Mana:
The Mana midi fountain pen touches the ceiling of the midi pen length at 5 1/2″ capped, but then makes up for the midi size with its thin diameter. The pen has a unique pinched shape that’s featured on both the cap and barrel, as well as on the clip. The clip also features a working roller wheel at the base.
The most prominent feature of the Mana is the pinched or concave shape on both the cap and the barrel that mimics the concave shape of the clip. The Mana is fitted with the smaller #5 nib.
About the Name:
This pen got it’s name from the Mana peak, number 92 on the list of the 100 tallest mountains in the world. It’s one of three neighboring or subsidiary peaks of the Kamet range and is located south-southeast of Kamet. The first ascent to Mana was made in 1937.

The Mana has a length of about 5 1/2″ capped and 4 5/8″ uncapped. The maximum diameter of the cap is .55″ (14 mm) at the base with a .47″ (12 mm) pinch. The maximum diameter of the barrel is .51″ (13 mm) with a .40″ (10.5 mm) pinch in the center.
Options and upgrades:
No additional options or upgrades are available for the Mana due to its thin diameter.
Inking system: The standard system is C/C (cartridge/converter) and is the only system available for the Mana.
Nib: The Mana uses the small #5 Jowo nib. Due to the thin diameter, the pen can’t be fitted with a #6 nib.
