Nice review! Also one of my own favourites. Somewhere (colour-wise) in-between their Ambre de Birmanie, D's Pumpkin and CdA's Saffron.

This the orange ink I use for my fall and Halloween orange ink.Tried Sheaffer orange but it is too washed out for my taste.

If I didn't already have several orange inks, I would be very tempted to buy this.

I've been on a quest to see if I could commit all Seven Deadly Sins in a single day. Finally, it dawned on me I shouldn't try for the One Day Wonder Prize for all seven in one day. It's simply out of any question as you can't commit decent sloth while busily ticking the other six off your crowded "to do" list. -- ViolinWriter

This is a beautiful ink! I have Caran d'Ache Saffron but unfortunately

I found it a tad bit washed out. This seems brighter and maybe might

suit my writing more. I really liked Jentle Kin-Mokusei by Sailor too!

I'm very fond of this perfectly-behaved and super-shading ink. It is just lovely in a medium width flexible nib. I haven't tried any other oranges and not sure I need to, since this one is great. I wouldn't use it with a fine nib though, I think it would be too hard to read. One of my go-to journaling inks (cream Rhodia paper).

I think that orange writing is so cheery & pleasant- as such this and J.Herbin Rouge Hematite are tied for #1 in my book. Both well behaved and both have admirable shading and color qualities.

      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
