Gutenberg Urkundentinte G10 schwarz (iron gall) This ink is made by Gutenberg GmbH (Läufer & Gutenberg). They make four other aniline inks. According to google translate, Urkunden means certificate, and tinte, ink, so Gutenberg is a certificate ink. It is waterproof. It reminds me of home-made iron gall inks. It is watery, lacks lubrication and will not work in all pens. My EF experience was unreadable. However, I can always blame it on the pen. It’s a brown black. It’s not an easy ink to buy for people outside Europe. But not impossible. I recommend it only to iron gall aficionados, dry ink lovers, or those who like inks that reminds them of leathers, cigar and might as a well a drop of whisky (whiskey or bourbon) · Pens used: Unic wet Noodle vintage flex, Conway Stewart 330, Oblique, Pilot Metro Fine, Sheaffer Calligraphy medium wide, Generic Chinese EF and stub. · Shading: Yes · Ghosting: None · Bleed through: None. · Flow Rate: alright · Lubrication: Absent · Nib Dry-out: Nope. · Start-up: No problem. · Saturation: Unsaturated · Shading Potential: Yes. · Sheen: Unless you poor a drop. · Spread / Feathering / Woolly Line: None. · Nib Creep / “Crud”: None · Staining (pen): Nope. Easy to clean… · Clogging: Nope · Water resistance: Waterproof · Availability: Only in bottle 30 ml and I believe 1100 ml. Only place worldwide soldan.de. However, buying is not straight forward. You buy one. They send you an invoice for bank transfer. You tell them it costs a lot. They send you to a different department. They give you a PayPal address. You send them money. And then they send. And you need a German translator. For Europeans it’s easiest. The US also have more options. However, their service is topnotch. My first bottle was corrupted. They replaced it immediately. Bottle: Written sample on TR 68 gr This is an earlier writing sample: Note EF is not legible. The stub, might been affected by salix. While I rinsed and clean the pen the trace inks seem to have affected the ink. Written samples on cheap Hilroy notebook Back: no ghosting on this paper Chroma (disclaimer) my first bottle had gone slightly off. This is the chroma of the first bottle... I didn't bother with the new bottle. High resolution scan of a drop on Hammermill paper I don't have anything in that range: Sketch done with a fine pilot metro: And a whimsical one...

Hero's Iron Gall ink has quite a reputation here so I thought I would give it a shot. It turns out that it is no longer on Amazon or ebay, but I did manage to find it on a site called ebuy7. I was a little reluctant to place an order, but the checkout was (seemingly) legitimately handed off to Paypal so I didn't have to risk my credit card details and if the ink never arrives I am confident I will be able to claw back the miniscule investment it cost for two bottles. I'll update the thread if and when the bottles arrive. If anyone has a more reliable, potentially reputable, source, please do share... # edit. I found them on aliexpress eventually, but they are a lot more expensive, don't deliver to my part of the world, and that website is such a royal pain in the asset, I refuse to patronise it.

So I went through some old boxes on the weekend and discovered a bottle of Montblanc ink in with papers. No box, just the bottle marked with the little blue dot. I know it was purchased in the early-mid 1990s as the papers it was stored with date it to that period. Expecting it to be royal blue, I inked it up. Goes down blue black. Odd, I thought. Perhaps it is just the effect of the passing years. I certainly don't remember buying a blue black, but perhaps that is why I put it away and forgot about it. Intrigued, I dropped some water on it. Nothing! Rubbing the page dry after 3 minutes and there was some barely perceptible shift around the 'k' in Miwok, otherwise completely colour fast. So this means I have a 3/4 full bottle of the original MB Iron Gall ink?

First of all, let me thank you to Cyber6 for some KWZI samples!!! I saw a few threads about these ink before, but never had the chance to try them until now. I was struggling which one should I try first, so I closed my eyes and picked one. The only other IG ink I've used is the R&K Scabiosa. That ink is pretty dry, but I love it overall. Being dry is not at all true to this #25 Iron Gall Green! http://kepfeltoltes.hu/141119/P1230462_www.kepfeltoltes.hu_.jpg http://kepfeltoltes.hu/141119/IMG_0002_hjhg_www.kepfeltoltes.hu_.jpg http://kepfeltoltes.hu/141119/IMG_0001___8211__helyre_ll_tva_www.kepfeltoltes.hu_.jpg http://kepfeltoltes.hu/141119/626026324IMG_001_www.kepfeltoltes.hu_.jpg http://kepfeltoltes.hu/141119/P1230458_www.kepfeltoltes.hu_.jpg This is on Canson satin tracing paper. I hope you find this quick informal review useful. Keep an eye on these inks!
