I've corrected the scans, because the white balance was off! I think it is more accurate like this!
SORRY :blush:
The older scan: here

Thanks for the review!

That settles it. I am ordering some tomorrow. I have been contemplating it for some time now. I think my Swan will love it.

Oh wow - thanks for this review!

 

Today I bought a 1.1mm nib for my Safari, and I'm expecting some Scabiosa in the mail, so this is very timely.

I'm glad it helped you to decide! It is really a very nice ink!

Haha! Great! :thumbup:

My Safari's nib is 'grinded' by me, because it's nib was damaged. I wanted to buy a 1.1 or 1.5 for it, but I took a try...

 

 

Great review Attika. I'm glad you like the ink. Cellopen, you're going to love it in the Swan.

 

Thank you Uncle Red!

It really lived up to my expectations :bunny01:

I use this ink everyday. One great thing about it is its look improves with age.

Seek that which is true, beautiful, and good.

Yes, that is true. I love these kind of inks!

The Diamine China Blue has a sort of same behavior, but it actually goes lighter while drying.

Love these two inks!

Looks like a nice charcoal color :thumbup: thanks for sharing

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 had been avoiding this because I didn't really like dark purples (Noodler's North African Violet is more my line). But this review is making me rethink (and I do like Salix quite a bit).

Great, swell. Yet *another* ink I want to try -- and when I have precisely zero dollars in discretionary budget at the moment....

Sigh. This website is just entirely too dangerous.

"It's very nice, but frankly, when I signed that list for a P-51, what I had in mind was a fountain pen."

Totally, with you! I told myself, I would not buy another ink until I tried and reviewed some of the inks already in my collection. Hence, I spent hours today playing with inks and tomorrow my clients will think I have some sort of inky leprosy.

 

 

Attika - thank you for the wonderful review!

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

      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.
