  1. I was inspired by raving reviews of this ink. Maybe because it’s too much like Royal Blue, or maybe it’s the Sharpie scent, I didn't feel the quickening of the heart. Nevertheless, it's a rich blue for blue lovers. It has a faint sheen and very well behaved in general, on the downside, it's not for lefty over-writers nor for those who use cheep papers with gusher pens Let's start with the chroma, am I blue or what? Writing Samples: This is a difficult colour to scan. The beauty emerges truly with M/B/Flex nibs. It mostly ghosts on Hammermill and if you use a gusher like the Waterman, you'll be in trouble Here you can see the richness of the colour, the sheen and shading, thanks to a vintage Waterman W2 flex nib Comparison: As usual the excess inks washes off, held 10 seconds under running water after 24 hours on Mnemosyne notepad. And finally an art work, homage to the magnificent blue whale, with our intrepid team of explorers I only used a Pentel brush nib for the contours. The rest is done slowly with the ink. Note the richness of the blue... · Pens used: Pilot Kakuna Ef, Lamy Safari (EF/F/M/B/Stub), Waterman W2 flex · What I liked: It really wrote well out of the Kakuna. I also enjoyed it with the medium nib and flex. Cleaning was easy. · What I did not like: Smell. I love the colours for washes it's that type of blue... · What some might not like: Long dry times, Doesn't like thin copy paper. · Shading: Yes. · Ghosting: Faint on copy paper. · Bleed through: If I press hard on copy paper. · Flow Rate: Wet · Lubrication: Ok · Nib Dry-out: No. · Start-up: No. · Saturation: Rich blue · Shading Potential: Yes depending on nibs. · Sheen: Hint · Spread / Feathering / Woolly Line: No. · Nib Creep / “Crud”: Yes on the vintage Waterman · Staining (pen): No · Clogging: No · Cleaning: Quite easy for a bulletproof ink. · Water resistance: Excellant · Availability: 90 ml bottles. Please don't hesitate to share your experience, writing samples or any other comments. The more the merrier
  2. I wonder if anybody could share a writing sample of Noodler's Baltimore Canyon Blue Ink and some experience (such as behaviour, cleaning etc.), comparisons, whatever actually? It is relatively new and there is only a couple of samples online (and they differ quite a lot). However the ink looks really nice from what I have seen. Also what is a bit weird... while most retailers accent there might be some sheen, almost every retailer also states it is not meant to be water-proof at all (but may have some water resistance eventually)... while Noodler's website says "water proof, archival, permanent". Thank you all!
