I have two pens bought from 'Camera Nation' (FPN member & E-Bay seller), one a DUX 612 and the other a Bahadur 612. Both are hooded nibbed pens, the Dux similar to a slender Hero 100, and the Bahadur is very similar to a Hero 330, though with the barrel end cap of a Hero 331. Neither pan is identical to any Hero pen I've seen (section lengths different, higher quality sac guard etc).

Does anyone know anything of these brands?

Regards

Richard.

Dux is from Pakistan. I bought one from Ray a couple of years ago although I can't remember the model name. I'm not familiar with the other brand.

HTH,

I'd guess that the Bahadur comes from India or Pakistan - I had a professor by that name. He said it means "champion" or something similar.

Bahadur means brave in Hindi/Urdu.
