The 'Hero' fountain pen was extremely popular in India during the 90's, it is a copy of Parker51 by Shanghai Hero Pen Company[1].
I was using those for few grades, I have some hand deformities so writing was hard & I didn't like the pen much.
Then by 10th grade my sister gifted me a Parker. It was a new experience, smooth & helped me write much better. 10th grade has board (public) exams in India, I spent a year before the exams in bed rest due to surgeries. So, writing the crucial board exams with the Parker pen was a remarkable experience; I scored good.
