Thanks for the colours, Betty. It's really helpful to see them all alongside each other like that.

Thanks for posting these. One of my favorite things to see on FPN is ink examples and/or descriptions. Of course none of that does anything to help curb my ink addiction! :ph34r:

Well, I'd have to rate them:

 

1) Diamine royal blue (pretty, pretty, pretty)

2) Noodlers luxury blue (lubricating, saturated, and bulletproof; works great with italics)

3) Swishmix antigua blue (really nice color; feathers on all but the best paper)

4) Diamine tropical blue (pretty, bright, and pretty bright)

5) Diamine sapphire (if you like a little purple in your blue, this could be at the top of your list)

6) Noodlers Navajo turquoise (even brighter than tropical blue?)

7) Noodlers blue (nice if you're into it)

8) Noodlers Ottoman azure (see 7)

9) Lamy blue (well, you can always dump the ink and use the bottle ...)

ROFL on the Lamy blue. I hated that (Potty Mouth) so much when i was taking notes, i got up, went to the bathroom, yanked out the cartridge and threw in "blue-black"...which isnt much better....

 

So got a picutre of that diamine royal blue?

Yard-O-Led Blue is the same was Diamine Royal Blue.

 

Bleh, I hate the Lamy Blue cartridge that came with my Lamy Safari too.

Thank you FPN'ers for your help and opinions about blue ink for work. There are so many nice ones... gue$$ I will have to try them all over time. I am trying to curb my pen addition (or transfer it at least) for less costly ink addiction.

Thank you for posting these samples. I was looking for a comparison between a few of the ones that you posted. Now I know what I am going to order next time I call Sam up at Pendemonium.
