Ok.. I just received some birthday presents from Japan.. Thanks to my lovely Nin(k)ja Traffiker.. :lol:

 

 

This is Sailor Maruzen JADE!!!! :wub: :wub:

It has a more gentle sheen (tone down) reddish-copper all over... You can't see it in the scanner.. Easy to see in person. Is not like some other inks that hits you over the head with it... example below... This is done with a scanner on Canson Tracing Paper (kind of like vellum)..

Like Maruzen Akane, this ink NEEDS to be appreciated in person... pictures/scans.. will never do it justice.

WOW! This is nice. I love understated colors like this. And I love people asking things like: what color is this? Thanks for sharing!

I expected a "greener" color based on the name, but I have seen Jade which is this shade of green.

Is this in the normal Sailor line of ink or is it a special edition that can only be bought in Japan? A green shade that I like AND sheen. I might have gone to heaven.

haha I like the Goldilock's principle! It sounds like I need to add one of those to the wishlist then :P

 

PS I'm a definitely the greedy Goldilock's when it comes to smoothness and flow -- the smoother and more free flowing the better :bunny01:

Thanks. Great colour. I take it it's a LE, not a Jentle Sailor.

I would be very cautious attempting to abscond with any of Cyber6's ink. Her secret ink vault, whereabouts unknown, is rumored to be protected by both the highest security the digital age can provide AND old school anti theft measures. Imagine Indiana Jones meets the Borg mixed with 007.

 

But if you wish to make an attempt, I will gladly hold your ink in safe keeping until your ultimate demise, er ..uh... return.

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      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
