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!

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
