Yes. In fact the B is for Baby. 

 

This model's name should have been 70CB for 'cute baby'. :)

 

I have two other pens, V-Sign 'Cute' and Pierre cardin 'micra' which are of similar sizes..

 

Are there any other Indian pens which are small and look elegant ?

Beautiful penmanship, and beautiful pen.

Did you grind the nib yourself?

I think most pen manufacturers offered these small pens. I have several handmade ones. Look up the Deccan datoon. Hema pens. Some Jk Pen store versions. The Deccan Bullet. Lilliput etc. then guider and Ratnamson have record book entry small pens. So yes ultra small pens are very much there along with the monstrously large pens.

The barrel material is acrylic if I'm right, while the cap, section is black ebonite. It has the stock Gama nib 35mm

( mind the pic quality)

Thank you sir! I'm really not sure... My father picked this up in Chennai about 3 years ago. Must've been between 900-1200 then. I'm not sure

Inspired by @Yohaanrods I successfully placed a KW #35 medium flex nib on a new Wality 71JT.

This configuration is aesthetically looking better than the stock #8 nib because #35 nib is well-proportioned with the rest of the big pen, and the chrome of the nib matches the rest of the trim and clip. This pen is a nice, wet writer now.

 

Again, inspired by @Yohaanrods and @hari317's posts, I tried inserting a #35 to a 69TL, but failed miserably; my fingers with peeled-off skin and abrasions attest to that.... Maybe another time....

Great. You are a lucky guy. So was I guess. My dad gave me some good pens back in the day that started me on this.

I'm still using my broad-nibbed Ranga 9B Giant on a regular basis (alongside my Kilk Epigram).  I love that (those) pen(s)!   :)

      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

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
