I am not so sure which model this is. I found it without any box or packaging at local pen store in Pune.

 

The pen costs around $13post-80966-0-66922600-1346741341.jpg

This is called the Pilot "Superior" IIRC. BTW which shop did you buy this from in Pune? It used to cost 230/-Rs once upon a time, I have several.

Darn!! I paid 13$ for a 4$ pen!!

I bought it from Shweta enterprises at ABChowk. Near Venus Traders.

When I had reached Venus traders they didnt have much of a fountain pen collection. Not even simple Airmail pens.

 

Long ago I had seen this post https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php?/topic/59429-pilot-ultra-super-500/

 

I thought may be these pens are so valuable.

 

:P LOL

Thanks, I know that shop. Sorry to hear about Venus. During my time, they were the best stocked shop in terms of inks and fountain pens. Also check out President Stationers at Raviwar peth. It has been a long time since I have moved out of Pune.

 

BTW the supers had gold nibs, this one is a steel nib.

 

Best

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
