Wow, that's an exciting colour! Very bright and out there. Might have to get some. In fact, I will have to get some.

 

Thanks for the review,

Karin

Nice review, vibrant colour, thanks.

And how can this be, because he is the Kwisatz Haderach.

Does anyone know how Saguaro Wine compares to Noodler's Ottoman Rose? The colors look remarkably similar to me.

It's funny that it's called 'wine' - I think the Nightshade color looks much more like wine. Nice color.

I have both. Saguaro is definitely purpley, while Ottoman Rose is a darker red, with slight dusty rose highlights.

Thanks for the review, this is a cool colour. I've been looking for a red or purple so I might as well kill two birds with one stone wth Saguaro Wine!

 

I've seen the water test from the scans, and it looks pretty good. Just for clarification, how well does this ink hold up with water splashed on it? I'm not looking for waterproof qualities for a soak test, just for the ink to be legible should my paper get wet.

 

On a wider point, how well do Noodler's non-Eternal inks hold up with water? Specifically, I'm thinking of Noodler's Blue.

this isn't water resistant at all. I had it for awhie and traded it for semi=-bulletproof. Didn't even hold up to raindrops on an envelope. Still love the color, though

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
