  1. From the album: ~Nothing to see here, move along

    This pen was given away to a friend, as an introduction to capless fountain pens. As she professes to write small, and had been frustrated by some Fine nibs (and was unimpressed by a Pelikan M205 EF nib), I wanted to confirm for myself as well as demonstrate that, after I worked on its nib, it is able to put down fine enough and crisp enough lines to support small handwriting. The selection of two inks known to be dry was thus intentional; and I also had spare bottles to give her along with the pen.

  2. From the album: Ink performance testing

    Lamy Benitoite was also included at the end, because there seems to be some uncertainty and conjecture online as to whether it has any iron-gall content.

    Best Dry Inks?

    I'm a fan of 'dry' (less lubricated) inks and over the last two years used exclusively the Diamine Registrar's/ESSRI, Salix and Pelikan 4001 blue black. Are there other similarly dry inks available? I would like to try something new, new colours and I'm not particularly concerned about permanency or its lack anymore.
  4. From the album: Ink performance testing

    I couldn't stand how woolly and blobby some of the lines written with the tester pens look, especially in the actual testing pad and notebook (not Rhodia Dotpad) I'm using for the year-long experiment, and so I reground the nibs on all of the pens. Note: Colour correction — which usually makes the image darker overall — in GIMP was not applied after the scan, but I have included the reference colour patches from the same scan. I wanted to show you how dark Diamine Registrar's Ink looks to the scanner, without any doubt as to whether I artificially darkened it or increased the contrast.
