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.

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.

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).

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
