mhguda Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 (edited) It does look so much richer in your test page. I'm adding it to the To consider list... which is getting much longer now that you're doing these pages. ETA I will probably have to limit myself to samples. Otherwise I will have ink for centuries.

amberleadavis Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 For many reasons, I don't think Konrad is going to offer samples.

mhguda Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I was afraid of that. Well, depending on the cost of it all, I will make my decision when we reach that moment. No point in speculating now. a fountain pen is physics in action... Proud member of the SuperPinks Link to post Share on other sites

napalm Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 (edited) By the time sheet 1098 got here, KWZI #22 lost most of its blue component and is now pretty much a gray. A slightly bluish one (when compared to Fuyu Syogun) but it's a gray nevertheless. Since I have nothing at hand to match it, I just scanned three sheets in the same pass so one could not only notice the difference from Amber's scan (paper freshly inked) and after 12 days (my scan), but also have some color anchors. Obviously some Iron Gall magic going on there... Edited August 23, 2014 by napalm Link to post Share on other sites
inkstainedruth Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 #22 is not bad. But some of the other IG colors are causing serious mouth watering! Sigh. As if I don't already have enough ink....

kwzi Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 There is a story behind every ink This ink is based on ink formula from c.a. 1920 which was then widely used as popular school/clerk ink. The ink formula was improved to be less corrosive and have better flow in fountain pens, because the original was intended to be used with dip pens. When used with dip pen this ink really changes color from nice deep blue to almost pure black, so this is classic Blue/Black I have a lot of tape - and I won't hesitate to use it!

amberleadavis Posted August 23, 2014 Author Share Posted August 23, 2014 Like Napalm, I found it changed to gray not black. See the images above.

Tas Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 3 out of 3 tested are keepers. KWZI, I'm impressed ! http://www.taskyprianou.com/fpn_kwzi_22_rhodia.jpghttp://www.taskyprianou.com/fpn_kwzi_22_swatch.jpghttp://www.taskyprianou.com/fpn_essri_swatch.jpghttp://www.taskyprianou.com/fpn_akkerman_10_swatch.jpghttp://www.taskyprianou.com/fpn_salix_swatch.jpg (Apologies for not showing Akkerman's No 10 on the sheet. Despite it being my favourite ink I don't seem to have it loaded in a pen. It usually lives in my bulletproof Sheaffer Intrigue but ESSRI has been squatting that recently . . .)
