Hello PFNers

Here's a quick handwritten review of R&K Solferino. I am currently having some computers problems (my 'normal' computer is out of service and I am now working on an old one until the other gets fixed) so forgive me for the scans. I tried to match the color the most accurately I could. Maybe I'll try to upload better ones once my computer will be back.

Hope you'll enjoy!

Wonderful handwriting! Thank you for a comprehensive and great review

Thanks for the review. I have received a bottle of think ink about a week or 2 ago. It indeed is a lovely color; A bright violett on the far reddish side. I have it in my Lamy Vista with a brand new converter and have not had any of the darkening effect that you mention if the ink stays in the pen. (You may have some old ink remainings in your MB 264)

I agree that it's a great color, and a nice flowing ink. I always have one or two pens filled with Solferino but it looks nothing like your sample. The ink is the same color, but that is where the similarity stops.
Best regards, Ken.

Wow! Thank you for a very nice review.

Superb writing!!!


P.S. The ink look nice too

I really like purple colors, and this is a wonderful looking one. The shading is nice. Can I ask if you tested any water resistance? Just curious.
Nice handwriting!. Thanks for the review.
