Like I mentioned right at the very end of my ramblings, I wouldn't have bought this colour from online photos but having it in a pen and using it has been a real pleasure.

I think it's charm is it's behaviour, the lovely crisp line it produces and the de-saturated "aged" look to the words written with it.

 

Thanks again for the opportunity to play.

Awesome review!!! I am currently in possession of a loaner TWSBI that has KWZI #15 ink in it and its another goody! I may have to invest in some of their ink!! This helps push me over the edge, lol. (Love the drawings!! Very creative!!)

So, what's your point?

Thank you.

Now get some of that #15 on paper and show us :) .

 

From what I can gather the #15 has that chalky faded aged look that #53 has.
Does it go all pink when washed?
Is it the same colour on different papers?

I didn't do an in depth review for ALD, but will try to do a fancy one like you all do. Better do this before the pen runs, dry, lol!!! No guarantees on little pictures. ;)

So, what's your point?

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

Hmm... #51 does look a lot like #15.

Yep...but you should have had the reformulated ink.

Oh...wait, #15 left a pink stain on the converter. The reformulations should have addressed the staining.

The small sample of "51" in Cyber6's long list of reviews at the top of the page shows 51 to be a green color. Might one or the other need to be re-labeled or or has there been a shift in the color chart/naming scheme of the inks.

I am blown away and so thankful for the gajillions of hours of ink reviews shared!

Lovely review but I must be doing something wrong when I become absorbed in the drawings instead of paying attention to the ink ;-)

That's very kind of you. I'm not what you'd call an "official" reviewer. I just kind of play and then show the results. I'm glad you like it.

 

(The ink was lovely though :) )

Don't get me started on those labels. Many a migraine were brought on by those labels. What's a couple of transposed digits between friends . . .?

LOL!!! Gotcha! Lovely, lovely drawings with lovely, lovely inks!

I read through the thread, but apparently without MY glasses or during a migraine - I missed the earlier resolution.

My question was because I LOVE these inks.... And Tas' drawings surely make them look fun!

 

THANKS Y'ALL!!!

Very nice review! Love the illustrations. Not my color, though.

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
