Cyber6 Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 (edited) So, our friends from SEITZ-KREUZNACH have release a few new colors: Lime GreenIndian SummerCognacCinnamon Brown Actually, there is a fluorescent yellow, but since I am not interested in highlighter inks, I didn't bother with that. They have also release a new bottle size the extremely cute 30ml ... similar to the Kaweco bottles Lets start with some pics... On Red n'Black Paper on Rhodia on Tomoe River My thoughts: I like them all. Lime Green: Very similar to Caran D'Ache Delicate Green. Les saturated than Robert Oster Lime Green. Wet flow, no show through or bleed through.Indian Summer: Goes down very bright, dries with a reddish tone... Kind of Terracota. Wet flow, no show through or bleed through.Cognac: This is my color. I do like these kind of hues. This one is very direct, no green undertones or gold... just a nice light brown. Wet flow, no show through or bleed through.Cinnamon Brown: Another favorite one, I do like my browns. No red undertones, it looks richer than Cognac. Wet flow, no show through or bleed through.I did not see much shading, but in honestly my pen is a wet flex nib. Maybe in a drier nib. (Correction: I was expecting much more shading.. Cognac and Cinnamon are my favorite. I did not see sheen, not even on Tomoe) Hope you enjoy the pics.. C. Edited June 13, 2016 by Cyber6 **** BauerInks.ca ******** MORE....

visvamitra Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Cool review C - I believe only Lime Green is interesting for me. How about lubrication, do they glide on paper? https://wondernaut.wordpress.com/ Link to post Share on other sites
AD64 Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Thank you for the ink review. It's lovely to see the writing samples; luscious colors! Link to post Share on other sites
lgsoltek Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I ordered these four a few days ago But they haven't been shipped out yet. All my inks, with ink splash and links to my reviews Link to post Share on other sites

Old_Inkyhand Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I love the Cognac, I like the Cinnamon... The other two are not bad, of course, but I couldn't really justify buying a bottle. They wouldn't get much use. Weird, as I don't agree with Visvamitra this time. Link to post Share on other sites
Fabienne Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Love the pics! Indian Summer looks like the darker cousin to Rouille d'Ancre (sp? too lazy to look up, it's Sunday morning), and more readable but it doesn't look like there is a lot of shading there, but it does look like there is good shading with Cognac. It's for Yew! Link to post Share on other sites
lapis Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Nice introduction/presentation of yours! Thanks!! Good ol' 4001 bottles. Whether they (the bottles) are all that liked here or not, I'm all for them (30 ml for 4.99 Euros) and all against the 100-ml schnapps bottles (for 9.99).

Cyber6 Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 Cool review C - I believe only Lime Green is interesting for me. How about lubrication, do they glide on paper? Not sure about that one. I have it in a very wet pen, and the inks are quite wet. Flow is good, but I can tell lubrication when in drier pens. I find Lime Green too similar to Everglades Snake Ink, Caran D'Ache Delicate Green and Robert Oster Lime Green, and ... I am sure there are more. Is a must have if you live in Europe ... no need to order from Australia or pay 5 times the price. C. **** BauerInks.ca ******** MORE....

Barkingpig Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I ordered these last week, except for Lime Green, which I have covered with Akkerman #28 & Bung Box HAPPINESS, for my "Spring Start" after a dreary winter slush. But ordering inks without even a sample is always a gamble & this time it seems I will be very happy with my forthcoming inks. You are always "in the know" for inks I like.

fountainpagan Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Thank you, Claudia for this review. I have Cognac and Cinnamon, and knew in advance they were to my liking: they are. I hesitated, and decided not to order Indian Summer, feering it would be too orange for my liking. Seeing your ink swabs, and writting with it, I will.

cleosmama Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Thank you, Claudia. These are very nice reviews. I am interested in the Cognac, though it looks a bit like KWZ Honey, which I have. Link to post Share on other sites
Cyber6 Posted June 13, 2016 Author Share Posted June 13, 2016 Thank you, Claudia. These are very nice reviews. I am interested in the Cognac, though it looks a bit like KWZ Honey, which I have. KWZI Honey has a more dramatic shading.. (from gold to caramel to light brown).. but I know what you mean. C. **** BauerInks.ca ******** MORE....

DrDebG Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Great review! I really like the Lime Green and the Indian Summer. Of course the Cognac is nice as well.
