Just an extra Note: The Parker 88 writing looks too dark on my monitor compared to the real color. It is a nice rich brown on the darker side with the wet writing Parker 88. The same is true of the MB Toffee Brown. It is not this dark on the actual paper.

If anybody has this and Brown #41, I'd love to hear how they compare.

 

I have both inks, and I find Texas Pecan is slightly lighter and warmer -- and to me more attractive -- than 41 Brown. However. . . They're both brown, and they aren't that far apart. I'm not sure I'd really notice the difference if I wasn't comparing them side-by-side on the same page.

 

It's sort of like comparing Texas Blue Bonnet (another Dromgoole's exclusive) with Bad Blue Heron. Blue Bonnet is a little more "blue" and I think a little prettier, but it's a subtle distinction.

 

Both Texas Blue Bonnet and Texas Pecan produce some very nice shading for me, and are good about not bleeding through medium-grade paper. They're winners. :thumbup:

      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
