Product Name This is the 4cs model by Ranga. We have configured it as a blow filler and outfitted it with a modern Sheaffer 18k nib.
Manufacturer and Year Ranga Pen Company, India - 2014
Length Just over 5-5/8"
Filling System We have configured this pen as a blow-filler. It's a simple filling process: put the nib in ink, and blow in the hole in the end of the barrel. (Surprsing little pressure is actually required.) Leave the nib in the ink for a few seconds, pull it out and wipe off any excess ink on the section. The pen is ready to write. You don't need to unscrew the barrel, but if you did you'd see a simple rubber sac which will be easy to maintain and replace if it ever wears out.
Color This pen has the a blue and yellow swirl in smooth ebonite material. The clip is gold colored, and can be removed for a sleeker look. (Or we can replace it with a silver colored clip.)
Nib FINE. The nib is an excellent Sheaffer Connaisseur 18k nib with great tipping. It's very smooth with just a little flex to it.
Condition Brand new, never used except during the process of building and testing. We fitted a new sac. The pen has been tested thoroughly for ink flow and smoothness.
