[mehandiratta]

I request all fellow users to show off the Ebonite only pens here....

 

Show us your ebonite beauties here .... Would really love to know what all we have....

Today I am using the Made in India ebonite beauty.... DAILY which is an inexpensive eyedropper pen from ASA pens.

This one comes with Fine Nib made by Ambitious in India.

The other iteration is one which comes with 3 in 1 mechanism as in can be used with converter, cartridge and as an eyedropper.... though by slightly paying more

This one is my favorite pen....

 

For serious work I find myself using the Athlete most often. It is very reliable and inspiring. The stock nib is surprisingly good! Most probably due to Mr. Subramaniam tuning. I prefer to fill it with Iroshizuku Asa Gao.

So we saw three daily today...

Very beautiful photos, all of you.

Humm, that ASA daily in yellow is very tempting

A beautiful pen, a great work of art... except for the original nib. Love it with the Goulet 1.1 stub, though!
