Hello,

 

Concerns have been voiced about bandwidth. In response, some images were deleted.

 

ByeBye

S1

 

I've a feeling that bandwidth is less of a problem than it used to be. Would it be possible (pretty please) to put the deleted images back?

Well, I'm going to go against the grain here (there's always one in the crowd) and say that I love this ink. In one pen.

 

My vintage Sheaffer Imperial loves this ink. I flex a lot with this pen and it saturates this green beautifully. Some other greens I've tried have become too dark when flexing (with this pen which has a slightly modified nib that is wetter than factory), but the Lamy Green shades and saturates perfectly.

 

Under normal (re. not flex) situations it comes out 'mint' green for me, but when used with a wet flexy nib it turns emerald...and beautiful.

 

Also, I'm a teacher and this ink seems to handle nasty/cheap paper (which is all you ever see in primary schools) very nicely indeed.

Interesting. I just bought this ink for precisely that purpose: correcting student papers! Usually I like to gleefully spill Sheaffer Skrip Red/blood across their tender little hearts, but I've been reconsidering my ways. Maybe this will come across as more gentle.

@LizEF I think this is why the links were broken.  11 years ago, bandwidth was more precious.

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

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

      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
