I'll follow with a pen I made back when I was still doing custom pen and followed by some other HRs in my collection...

Custom Made Cumberland Rod, which is the hard rubber material used to make pipe stems..

 

 

Bexley, Custom made for me out of the last of the Cumberland Rod I had left... as stunning pen and amazing writer...

 

 

Groco Saftey Pen... early German HR Safety pen that was restored by Richard Binder...

 

 

Waterman 12S Safety Pen that was restored by Richard Binder..

 

 

Conklin 4NL.... I really don't know much about this pen other than it is one of the larger size Conklins and uncommon and writes nice with a semi-flex nib..

I have only 2: an Edison Herald and 2009 Owners Club Bexley. Both top looking with reliable nibs that have character to them when you write. I prefer the character of these to my Montegrappas which tend to be so smooth it's like skating on ice.

Thanks

Beautiful pen. I have never seen that brand before.

Thank you Tony. Deccan is a small chain of three pen stores in the Indian city of Hyderabad who make Ebonite fountain pens in very limited numbers.

Hello Hari.

 

Did you notice my small collection is still missing a certain GT MP?

 

Forgot to say: most of the pens are coming either from Hari or from Steve (usual disclaimer).

Nice photos of our humble Indian pens. Deccan's production is extremely limited with runs of often less than 10pens, alas the GT MP still remains only a distant possibility.

 

Best,

Hari

Ain't she a beaut?

 

Or maybe he's a he. I haven't decided yet.

 

 

If I'm not mistaken that's an Edison bulb filler, one of my wish list pens. Most definitely a beaut!

You're not mistaken, that's exactly what it is, and I highly recommend moving it to the top of your list. :thumbup:

What a lot of lovely pens so far! Here are a few of mine.........the RRHR Waterman 56 pic is not mine - in fact I don't think I took any of these - but I keep all pics when I buy a pen! Enjoy!

Thanks Dennis for your usual photos - excellent pics of amazing pens!

First the Waterman.............next the Hamilton Broadwell and to finish a Paul Rossi remake of a vintage Waterman 24 made from vintage hard rubber, feed and nib.
