This is pretty accurate for this ink. It isn't your average color but I think this shows its character about as well as can be done with my equipment.

Thanks for the review.

Think I'll pass on this one. Even when in the OB nib it seems really hard to read.

I wanted to love this ink because it reminds me of ballet shoes, but it's super dry and unreadable.

I can't stop buying pens and it scares me.

Yeah. I have a kind of fascination thing going with this ink. But it really needs a fat, wet nib.

My latest ebook.   And not just for Halloween!
 

My other pen is a Montblanc.

I'm getting a slightly grimy Band-aid vibe which is, oddly enough, not grabbing me. Sorry, Fabienne, more for you, but thank you for the review.

Ahhh.... it's okay. Can't love or hate it. I've tried it out for years and never seen enough rust in it. I do love rusty anchors (being an old scuba diver fetishist). This ink is however all that's left over.

Thank you for that wonderful review Fabienne!

 

I really like the dusty rose shade but not the brown, it is fascinating that an ink can do that!

My little secret: Eventually this turns out to be the only ink I have 2 bottles of on standby

^ Good for you, tovarich! Good taste is always in fashion, so is hoarding.

      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
