Liberty's Elysium, A Freedom Ink

[PowerWriter]

I just wrote a blog post about my purchase of Liberty's Elysium. I don't want to push politics on this site but merely mention that inks tug at our emotions and empathies. I bought a bottle of this ink as much for patriotism as for the color/colour.

My favorite blue ink at the moment. It is currently inked up in my blue Karas Customs INK in medium. Lovely combination.

My P45 is a bit wet for this ink, it comes out a darker blue, not a 'bright' blue

Until I find a pen that will not clog with this ink, and will write dryer (and brighter) than my P45, it comes in second to PR DCSS blue as my favorite blue.

It's one of my favourite inks, although it's supposedly not "permanent" by Noodler's standards, my water test had the paper (if memory serves, a 24 lb writing paper*) being erased through before the ink was gone. Good enough for me, as my cheques are on tamper-sensitive stock anyhow.

 

My regular-carry pens for it are a Pelikan M200 with a GPS fine nib, and a 1946 (restored) Parker 51 with a 14k fine-ish nib.

 

*I do most of my writing, and all of my testing, on common stock. I'm not going to be making notes, and every-day use, on fancy (and expensive) stock. That might be plebian, but it's practical. My letterhead is 28# Hammermill bond, one of these days I'll get around to changing it to Crane's Crest or Currency bond. (Which, frankly, is a lovely paper, but a PITA to buy around here.) -- lwj

My daily ink also - I rock it for notes and paperwork.

 

Lovely blue, and the partially bulletproof part is a big plus, given how I've had spills over my stuff.
