Both pen and paper have quite big impact.

Thank you. It looks good.

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

When I ordered this ink, I thought it might be more brown than red, but to my (pleasant) surprise, it is a deep, dark red-brown that looks so delicious, I want to get a straw and drink. Ok, well maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration, but I just might have to get divorced so that I can marry this ink. *YUMMMM*.

I haven't seen anything on FPN about TEKKER INK, but I happened to see something about it on Facebook. So I went to the website, and since the prices were reasonable, I ordered three bottles.

 

The great idea, is that you can custom order the ink you want by hex color number! I decided on one of the colors: a fun shade of orange-brown that I can't seem to get enough of. It's a variation on the brown of the pottery of ancient Andean civilizations (including Incan). I call it "Chasqui" which is a word in the quechua language for the messengers who ran along Incan roads to deliver information (in the form of quipus). At any rate, here it is:

What is the Hex Code?

 

I got three of the inks still waiting on the rest. But I am so knee-deep in orange I haven't even opened the Valentine Bung Box or the Athena.

Hex code is the RGB code (in contrast to decimal code) that identifies a color. For example:

The Tekker Ink guys have come up with a way to make ink to match the 6-digit RGB code you send them. That's the idea, anyway...

      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
