On Robert Oster's shop website Lime Green is described as follows: "This unique shade is edgy and lush. Lime Green has never looked this much like its sumptuous, vibrant namesake. Flows on Green, dries on like a living Lime."



I enjoy the color - it's quite vibrant and fresh.

Thank you for another , as always excellent review. I like these colors; this one reminds me of Akkerman's Hofkwartier Groen. It seems to shade a bit better than the Akkerman #28. (I think one of these greens will suffice for my Springtime moods & I do like the Akkerman bottle better!)

This is one of the Oster inks I really like. I don't have a green quite like it, at least here in Aus. Here it is (#7) with a few of my other green inks.

 

This sheet is one of quite a few CRVs that will be on their way back to Amberlea soon.

I'm surprised by this! I expected it to be a simple, boring lime green colour, but this has turned out with excellent shading and lovely pop! Thanks for the great review as always.

Ohh! I love this! It gives me the same feeling that Caran d'Ache Delicate Green gives me - like I have just stepped into a meadow - fresh, clean and clear!

 

Great review! Thanks for your insights!

      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
