Ranga Pens

Very nice, large pen. I've tried a few pens from India in the past and they are all dust collectors- not good quality. The Samurai, however, has easily passed the grade. It's a very well constructed pen for under $100. Writing has been perfect and I've given it a lot of use the past few weeks. It is a large pen that some might not like, but it is very comfortable and dependable nonetheless.

This is a beautiful pen with a quality build. I had an issue with the Bock nib that came with it, and Pen Chalet was able to send a replacement Conklin Jowo nib that worked fine. Great customer service in addressing the issue quickly. Highly recommend these Ranga pens!

I was initially apprehensive about the word "giant" in the name of this product, as I am an average sized guy with average sized hands. But I went it with anyway, and the first thing I realized when I wrote with it for the first time was that is a supremely comfortable pen! The hourglass shape of the grip section is also very ergonomic, and I can write longer with this pen than any other in my collection (I have radial nerve compression in my hand because of which it gets fatigued with thinner pens very quickly).
The fit and finish of the pen is absolutely top notch, and you will be hard pressed to realize that this is a hand made pen! The Bock nib was great out of the box and the converter holds decent quantity of ink. Overall, I just love this pen, and the only gripe about it is that it doesn't have any kind of roll stop.

This is a gorgeous pen. It writes smoothly and consistently. I am really enjoying using it.

I am such a fan of the “small-market” custom-made appeal of Ranga fine writing instruments. My expectations are always exceeded with each unboxing. This delivery was no exception. My Model 3 is amazing. It is possessed of the attentiveness to detail I have come to expect from Ranga. And the pairing with a Bock no. 6 fine nib completes what is becoming a daily obsession. The warmth of the ebonite and the solid heft that only such natural material can confer is what sets it apart from the resin-bodied pens of my collection. Its size and large pen proportions (not oversized) is ideal for long writing sessions or just jotting a quick note or signature. And the capacity to eyedropper the Model 3 (a converter is included) just further puts it a class all by itself. The pleasant aroma enhances its overall allure towards not wanting to put it down. A great buy at an incredible value. I will buy another soon.

I am very pleased with the pen. Perhaps an incidental observation unrelated to performance, but I love the color. It cheers me each time I pick it up.

Beautiful pen. Substantial, high quality materials. The girth is comfortable and the pen writes perfectly.

From the first fill this pen just felt great in my hand. The style is beautiful. Almost seamless when closed.

Lovely pen, nib was a little scratchy but work well.

I am exceedingly enjoying this pen. Being real ebonite is has that smell of sulfur. Being hand made, one can feel the hidden irregularities that keep the perimeter of the barrel and cap from being purely cyllindrical. The material is nearly 100% pure, I have one black spec, about the size of a grain of sand that gives it character and lets me know its mine. The nib is perfectly buttery smooth. It is a joy to use and much like my other Ranga pens. It has no clip, like all my other ebonite pens, from other companies. I put J.Herbin Rouge d'Orient red ink and it nearly matches the barrel color when dry. I learned about Ranga here at Pen Chalet and am enjoying all of them. The grip section also allows my big hands to comfortably hold it further from the nib, as I need to do. Very happy. Highly Recommended.

This is one of the very best pens I have ever purchased. The nib is flawless and it writes beautifully. The whole fit and feel of this pen are exceptional. If you want big pen with a classic look, this is rather nice.

Love the feel and balance of this pen (unposted). I'm more of a F,EF or UEF nib user, but this Bock Medium is really nice. The cap comes off in 2 1/2 twists which is nice. I like the subdued Orange/Black combo design...not too flashy. This is my first all ebonite pen (even love the smell to it....heck, I like the Noodler's pen smell). This purchase was well worth the price. Hopefully Pen Chalet gets more in stock.

Thanks to Pen Chalet Customer Service with this purchase. My questions were answered and delivery is always as promised. Pen Chalet is a joy to deal with.

Great plastic barrel. Just be aware that this is a long pen. The Bock nib writes really smooth with a very small feedback and if you have Mylar paper & just write a few figure 8s/infinity signs it become glassy smooth.
Can be eyedropper and comes with a converter but no cartridges.

I’m very pleased with this pen. The ebonite has a great feel to it. I purchased the ochre colored pen with Broad Bock nib. The machining is so precise you cannot even see the line where the cap unscrews. I have other Ranga pens that are of good quality as well. This is the least expensive ebonite pen I’ve ever purchased. I have communicated with the company’s owner and have no doubt about the pride that is manufactured into Ranga pens. I hope to see some of the larger pens here in the future.
