Callifolio Inti

When I first tried this ink, I was not a fan of it. But I've used it a few times now and it has really grown on me.

I'm a hard sell in this arena because I don't typically like brown inks. But this ink looks really good on a Rhodia dotPad ...

Dear Saskia,

I always enjoy your reviews. I don't have a need for this colour, but it does seem attractive for honey-lovers.

 

I'm sure hundreds of FPNers make better purchases thanks to you.

 

You're an inkmeister.

Thank you hovea for your kind words. That is my aim, to help people have a better idea of what inks they'll fall in love with *before* purchasng them. :)

 

swanjun - I'm always of two minds about that. Sometimes I buy something outside my comfort zone and I love it. Sometimes I stretch the limits and it ends up languishing in my closet or on the shelf. It's always tough for me to discern which will be which.

Great review, I like this color... Seems just right between Edelstein Mandarin and Orange Indien...

      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

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @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
