[Anirban4u]

Just a tip:

 

Anyone in India looking for Schneider Base can go to flipkart and have this gem of a pen.

After using ebonites, you won't find it interesting !

 

Better to get a Hawk or Forever depending on your design preferences + spare jinhao nib

I do agree that by itself its a good pen & definitely an ooh aah FP.

 

However having used so many FPs now - my only observation regarding the base & safari is that they have very good nibs. However the manufacturers have factored in certain peculiarities that makes the pen fade away rather quickly if one gets exposed to "well behaved" more "traditional" FPs.
