This one is stunning with your penmanship. Though, you make every ink look pretty.

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

Normally this is not a color I like. But this one looks pretty. Thanks for the review. And not....

Thanks for the great review, and nice penmanship!

 

 

I wonder how it compares to Diamine Oxblood or Red Dragon...

I was looking for a comparison with KWZ Maroon #1. It looks darker than Maroon #2 on the colour chart. Has anyone compared both side by side please?

 

I'm sorry that I don't have either, or I would have been able to compare them next to Mb Shakespeare.

That is a gorgeous red. Reminds me of... what is that Diamine red...? Monarch something.... Once up on a time, I very much enjoyed using that ink. And Maroon #2 reminds me of it. Very nice.

Monaco Red? If my memory serves me correctly that one looks more "brick".

I really enjoy this very dark red. I like KWZI Maroon (#1?) also-both are rich, saturated dark reds that seem well behaved-almost a toss-up for me to choose between them. For me, Maroon 2 has the slightest edge on lubrication, and Maroon (#1) seems a hair darker to me. Both are lovely and I’m glad to have samples of both.

This is quite a blast from the past. I bought this ink after reading this review back when it was written.

      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
