Kwzi Northern Twilight 2016 Scriptus Le

Recommended Posts

I must say I'm not certain if I should thank an FPN friend, or curse them for having sent me the KWZ Northern Twilight ink from the 2016 Scriptus pen show. Totally limited edition. All gone within the first 45 minutes they went on sale. If you are still looking for your grail ink, I'm so sorry, but it came and went and you didn't get any. Unless you have a bottle of this. And when it's gone, your grail will be gone too, and you really won't have an inky life worth living.

This is the best KWZ ink evah. EVAH I tell you! I'm trying not to exaggerate. Really I am.

 

This ink is a blue-black/blue-green that is all its own. So rich, So deep, So complex. So much sheen on the right papers. Shading too on the right papers.

 

Pen: Pelikan M400 (M-14kt)

Papers: Mohawk via Linen=MvL, Tomoe River=TR, Hammermill 28 lb inkjet=Hij.

 

I know on this image it looks just black but it's not. Deep blue-green. And normally that is not a color I gravitate towards.

You'll probably have difficulty recovering your writing due to the richness of the ink itself and the flow enhancers that cause the ink to migrate into wet areas and penetrate the back of the paper. But with this ink you won't care.

There are colors that don't show up in this image on my paper towel.

We are now condemned to searching for the eternal doppelganger... an impossible quest, but what can you do? Unless KWZI takes pity on us and does another production run... And this is with a bottle out of which I've so far only filled one pen. All of a sudden I can see why people hoard their special bottles...

Great review. I'm sure I'm going to be saying Evah.

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

Wow! I was lucky enough to be offered to fill a pen with this ink and I absolutely love it!! I will definitely be keeping an eye out for anyone willing to part with a bottle. The review above was excellent and seeing the ink in person really does make a difference...or at least it did to me and made me like the ink that much more. Congrats to everyone that was able to purchase a bottle or two.

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
