If you find other grey inks to lack strength and character, consider placing an order to France. The funky bottles are attractive, too.

I bought all 34 colours in tetra paks and am slowly working my way through trying all of them. When I have my top 8 favourite ones, I'll those in glass bottles. :D

 

Thanks for this review! I'm picky about gray inks, but this one looks great. I'm looking forward to trying it out.

That is a beautiful gray that has a distinctive character. Thanks for showing it so well in your review!

With the new FPN rules, now I REALLY don't know what to put in my signature.

Thanks!

thanks for showing this nice grey :thumbup: mb oyster grey can be a nice alternative to it

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

I'm not a big fan of this grey, on moleskine paper looks nice, you can appreciate the color, however for example on rhodia paper, it's too weak, IMO

Don't buy Pelikans ... Life is too short for a non-perfect Fountain Pen - Pelikan M600 Ruby Red - M1005 Demonstrator - M205 Demonstrator (Blue + Highlighter) - M 200 Demonstrator - Lamy CP1,Al Star's

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @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

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
