  1. J Herbin Bleu Myosotis (Cartridge) Thanks for @Lithium466 for the sample. After reviewing the complex Kobe #56 ink, it was difficult to warm up to this ink. There’s nothing inherently wrong about it, but the name! It doesn’t correspond to the sky-blue colour of forget-me-nots, unless in France the flowers are blurple or blue-black I think Herbin would have been better off exchanging this one with Bleu Pervenche. 😛 I had some problem with the cartridge and the flow. I pressed the cartridge, several times to prime the feed and finally, I realized I had managed to puncture ever so slightly the cartridge, a first. However, afterwards the pen wrote perfectly fine. The ink writes purple and dries to a muted blue-black. I didn’t bother to ink up a flex nib for this one. Also, the Japanese Ef line was created through reverse writing. In retrospect the colour looks like a nice blue-black on white Tomoe River paper, but I still can't warm to it. Let's start with the chroma: Writing Samples: Photo: Comparison: The R&K is Königsblau Water test: Ink is more water resistant than Éclat de Saphir and finally an artwork, Forget me Not on Fabriano Watercolour paper Other inks used are: J Herbin Bouton d'or De Atramentis Document Red SketchInk Klara + Marlene Noodler's Pasternak · Pens used: Kaweco (EF/F/M/B, BB) · What I liked: Putting my water brush in the cartridge and drawing with it · What I did not like: The name not corresponding to the colour 😛 · What some might not like: My review · Shading: It shades · Ghosting: Yes, on cheap paper. · Bleed through: Yes, on cheap paper. · Flow Rate: It didn’t gorge the feed like some inks do. · Lubrication: A bit on the dry side · Nib Dry-out: Did not notice. · Start-up: Ok · Saturation: Pastel · Shading Potential: Nice. · Sheen: No. · Spread / Feathering / Woolly Line: Did not notice. · Nib Creep / “Crud”: Did not notice. · Staining (pen): No. · Clogging: Did not notice. · Cleaning: Easy · Water resistance: Ok, better than Éclat de Saphir. · Availability: cartridges, 10 ml, 30 ml bottles. Please don't hesitate to share your experience, writing samples or any other comments. The more the merrier
