This is pretty accurate for this ink. It isn't your average color but I think this shows its character about as well as can be done with my equipment.

Thanks for the review.

Think I'll pass on this one. Even when in the OB nib it seems really hard to read.

I wanted to love this ink because it reminds me of ballet shoes, but it's super dry and unreadable.

I can't stop buying pens and it scares me.

Yeah. I have a kind of fascination thing going with this ink. But it really needs a fat, wet nib.

My latest ebook.   And not just for Halloween!
 

My other pen is a Montblanc.

I'm getting a slightly grimy Band-aid vibe which is, oddly enough, not grabbing me. Sorry, Fabienne, more for you, but thank you for the review.

Ahhh.... it's okay. Can't love or hate it. I've tried it out for years and never seen enough rust in it. I do love rusty anchors (being an old scuba diver fetishist). This ink is however all that's left over.

Thank you for that wonderful review Fabienne!

 

I really like the dusty rose shade but not the brown, it is fascinating that an ink can do that!

Is it fair for an intelligent and family oriented mammal to be separated from his/her family and spend his/her life starved in a concrete jail?

My little secret: Eventually this turns out to be the only ink I have 2 bottles of on standby

^ Good for you, tovarich! Good taste is always in fashion, so is hoarding.

      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

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @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
