The ebonite feeds don't freak me out as much to heat set but I have been worried when working with plastic feeds. I've never messed up a plastic feed but they do worry me. I have noticed Omas ebonite feeds do have some flashing on the fins but these are on later pens 2004+ or so. I don't see any performance issues though. I only have one Montegrappa ebonite feed and it has been nice. No flashing on the fins.
