The Ranga Model 8, a black hard rubber (ebonite) eyedropper filler. I believe this is the smallest pen from Ranga that's a standard model. It's light and the perfect size for my hands. I like the section particularly, with its slightly tapered, hourglass profile. It came with a Kanwrite no. 35mm M nib and I modified the original configuration by replacing the standard feed with a Kanwrite #8* ebonite feed. Handmade by Ranga Pens, Tamil Nadu, India.

A note on the Kanwrite ebonite feeders: I sourced this directly from KW and I think will serve better than the standard #8 indian ebonite feeds which for me, dry out very easily if not fitted properly or even if carried in one's shirt pocket for too long. As of now, this is not an issue with these KW feeds. I plan to gradually replace all the indian #8 feeds with these from KW.

Paired with an HMT Janata, with Arabic numeral dial.

* The #8 sizing may be proprietary to Kanwrite.
