Inks Where You Must Have Had A Bad Bottle.

It's always possible, in my experience it's always been the pen, which usually just needed a god cleaning; except for rouge hematite, which is a known offender. Even that other known bandit, ancient copper, is behaving.

My sample of Noodler's El Lawrence was not the same thing the bottles I eventually purchased. To be fair, the sample sat for a good couple of months before I opened it. And the bottles I bought were purchased a good year later, after El Lawrence went through a period of being totally unavailable. Who knows if the difference was due to a slight re-formulation/difference in batches or if the sample had gone 'off' somehow. Works out though - I like the color in the bottles I have.

 

I second that on the El Lawrence. Love it really, but it precipitates like mad so I'm too scared to use it in most pens.

Noodler's prime of the commons: it should be blue black, but mine is blue Grey.

Mine is teal....

I got a sample of PR blue suede and really liked it - it had nice blue hue.

However, when I got a bottle of it - there's now absolutely no blue. It's just plain green...
