Thanks for the great review. I recently bought a bottle of Lex Grey as I love the colour and was looking for something with a little more flow than my Manjiro Nakahama. The fact that it is waterproof is a big plus.

This is my favorite color of ink. Sadly, I almost never use it since it exhibits bleedthrough on all the paper I use. It's not the worst bleedthrough of all time, but it's bothersome if you use both sides of the paper.

English is not my first language, so please correct my mistakes, if you wish.

I understand. So, I use it to address envelopes. It also works very well with Staples Eco-Friendly (bagasse, sugar cane) composition notebooks which I use for one of my journals. The Made in Brazil Norcom composition notebooks handles the ink well also. Last night I also tried it on Hammermill Ultra Premium Laser 24 lb. paper and experienced no bleed-through. I plan to use this paper with a line template for letters.

Nice writing Signum :) Italic hands are hot lol

 

I like the color, whether one considers it a "grey" or a "shading black"...

 

I haven't tried a grey in my pens as yet . . . maybe I'll have to give it a whirl soon.

 

Thanks for the review!

 

Pictrix,

 

Did you state that Italian lovers are hot? Sorry my imagination got the best of me here. lol.

 

 

 

LOL, I do not know, but it might be fun to find out!

 

Handwriting styles, like fonts, can be... evocative :D

This is an everyday ink for me and I keep a Pilot Knight filled with it. I love the flow, appearance and look of this ink!

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
