Sailor's Nano inks are carbon particle inks, designed especially for FPs. Like graphite or soot but extremely fine. Hence the name nano whivh means 10^-9. Very smooth, also very permanent. Dries quickly too.

Their Jentle inks correspond to their "regular" inks and are dye-based. no particles. These are just as smooth but less permanent.

As to costs, here in Krautland, the Jentles come in at 9.90 Euros for the 50-ml bottles, wherease the Nanos (also in 50-ml bottles) amount to 24.90.

Both behave very well in fountain pens; Nano is a pigment particle ink that does not have any shading and it's suitable for everyday stuff. It's a PERMANENT ink so it's great on the legal documents; it's wash-proof, sun-proof, and [proof-proof] . Jentle is Sailor's regular line of inks, I never had any problems with them. They flow very well and joyous to write with.

Two things which they both do share are the bottles and the smell. Not sure that everbody working with a FP can fall in love with the creosote odour of a freshly paved road.

Nano Blue (Sei Boku) does have a considerable level of shading, if you look at the review index here...
