Sailor Kobe Nagasawa, Cascade Green ink

 

Here is a picture of my Sailor Kobe Nagasawa Cascade Green Ink. I went on a buying spree of Nagasawa inks and Kingdom Note inks a while ago on eBay, including the Mushroom series and Insect series inks.

 

Although the bottles and quirkiness of the Kingdom Note inks are great, I think I actually prefer the serenness of the Sailor Kobe inks. I also find some of the KN Mushroom series to be a bit dry, whereas these Kobe Nagasawa inks are much wetter. I'm tempted to buy all of them... if only storage and funds permitted!

Above is a writing sample with the Omas Ogiva Extra fine, Extra Flessibile nib. Cascade Green is actually quite similar to the Kobe Nagasawa Marchais Blue, but Cascade Green has more shading, in my opinion.

 

Sorakuen Green Tea is another favourite- very soothing.

I just got Emerald of Chivor and think it actually beats Cascade Green in terms of shading and saturation...also has a nice red sheen.

Works great on Rhoda, but even better (nice and smooth) on Tomoe River paper...

Unfortunately the gold only makes an appearance in accidental spillages...

      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
