What Indian Pens Are You Using Today - 2021 ?


RMN

Recommended Posts

I'm using my lacqurered Sreekumar pen for grading exams and papers, and my Ranga Zeal for everything else.

I may grab the Asa Rainbow and Ranga 8B temporarily, they're still on the desk and filled, hard to resist. I have Colorverse Quasar in the 8B.

Five minutes ago I bought a Ranga 4 in olive brown ebonite. That makes it three Ranga pens. I should stop looking at his ebay store, but it is like looking through the window of a sweet shop and drooling.

I do undertand you...the colour options are almost endless, and if you ask for modifications Mr. Kandan sets it up for you...

I am currently waiting for a 3C, in premium ebonite, with a modified section, and a Conklin/Bock nib on ebonite feed (ED)...

wow

Looks-wise, yes. Nib-wise, not so much. Its serviceable but Ill probably swap it with something a little nicer to write with at some point.

Kim pen with a comfortable section and a wet ambitious nib. Its greedy eyedropper belly is filled with pelikan edelstein green. A happy combination overall.post-80706-0-23999300-1526378445_thumb.jpg

The Pen looks awesome. Which blank it is?

Copper Mountain available at exoticblanks.com

 

Not one of Mr. Rao's standard blanks.

Haven't seen this bock nib design before, is it new? Looks great and the pen looks excellent as well.

I'm using my Fosfor Kwihi Islander with Monteverde blue black. I think I'm not putting anything else in this pen from now on... What took me so long? It's a perfect combination on a Classmate blank notebook that I'm using as my day-to-day book. Fantastic!

      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
