Akkerman Ink Group Buy - Delivered At Dc Pen Supershow


Recommended Posts

 

I'm very glad I grabbed my bottle of #26 early on during the day yesterday. It pairs wonderfully with my emerald green Vacumatic.

Yeah, I can see where it might. I didn't sample all the Akkerman inks at the table, but that was one of the ones I did try. Ironically, I still haven't opened any of the three I bought (#s 9, 10 and 19) because of trying to catch up with FPN and also try to finish up more of the laundry that didn't get done on Friday afternoon and evening before driving down to the show).

ETA: Also, trying to decide which ink to try first, and which pen(s) to use.

Voted for Akkerman! I don't know what people suggesting Noodler's inks for a Massdrop were thinking... there's no way Nathan could actually make that huge batch of ink quickly enough, plus he has very very narrow profit margins so the Massdrop price wouldn't be far off from the actual retail price.

      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
