I'm awaiting bottles of Noodler's Hunter Green and Lexington Grey. I purchased these inks as samples and used them up because I adored both! I'm starting a new nursing job, so I might as well have some new ink!

My first Robert Oster ink...Summer Storm. :thumbup:

 

Me too (as in ordered, although it's not my first Robert Oster ink that I've bought -- I got Purple Rock in August, but haven't had a chance to try it yet). Just hit the "buy" button for a sample (along with samples of Australian Sky, Blue Night and Moss). Also samples of De Atramentis Aubergine, Califolio Bonne Esperance, some Papier Plume samples (Forget-me-Not Blue, Caramel, Burgundy and Peacock Blue).

And a bottle of KWZI Grey Plum :wub:.

R&K Scabiosa and Salix. Only tried some Noodler's 'bulletproof' inks and MB permanent blue in the past. I want to increase my collection of permanent inks.

Great selection!

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Iroshizuku Kiri-same, a departure for me from my usual blue-blacks without going overboard.

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
