You're welcome KCat... :)

Having suffered through just 2-pens in the last 2-weeks with just 3-ink colors, I loaded pens last weekend for a new rotation. I do the reviews for my own personal reference -- so that I remember each ink/pen combination's particular characteristics. I only post the ones that I don't think anyone's reviewed before. If there are repeats, mods please feel free to delete them as you see fit. Thanks!

Ever use this one in a Safari? Me likes the generous flow. Nice colour too. :thumbup:

What pens and colours did you use on your trip?

An excellent review of one of my favorite darker blues. As to having multiple reviews on the same ink, the more the better! A review is, after all, one person's experience and opinion, so the more reviews we have, the more information we get on an ink. (This doesn't mean I disagree with anything in this review -- I don't. In fact, I would just say "ditto" imho to all girlieg33k said.)

Thanks for the review! Although I love all Diamine blues, the Prussian Blue is somehow not to my liking. Too washed out and boring for me. Blue Black is much nicer than this one in my view.

Thanks for the review. It's one of the inks that I'm considering buying, but not actually doing so in the end. This tilts the balance in favour of buying. Am I correct in assuming that this the exclusive Noodler's for Rolf of missing-pen.de?

Very nice review. This is my favorite ink, and your review looks pretty accurate in terms of color by my eyes/monitor.

I just got a bottle of this today and loaded a Pelikano Jr. with it, which is a fairly wet "wide" medium. The ink looks great, like a classic blue black should. I like this one better than Indigo, which looks a bit washed out to me. Thanks as always for a good review. You are a resource!

This is the Only Diamine I have, which I bought based on some scans and/or comments by KCat ages ago. It is a very nice mellow semi-dark blue with hints of grey and slight green. As with almost any ink, it will look a little different depending on the pen used.
