Sailor Red Brown. Thank goodness I have another bottle stashed away since this color isn't made any more.

Diamine Midnight Blue-Definitely will get another bottle, 80 ml this time. But may try Aurora Blue Black first. Waiting for a review on FPN first.

Finished a 30ml bottle of Platinum Blue-Black approximately two weeks ago.

 

Next on my list is my 90ml bottle of Noodler's Old Manhattan Blackest Black. But it'll be quite a while, given I have a third of the bottle left and use it rarely.

Either R&K Salix or Quink Black was last, next probably Sailor Jentle Black or Iro Tsuki-Yo.

Being only just over a year in on all this, I haven't yet gone through a whole bottle of an ink. I have, however, gone through many cartridges, Skrip Turquoise the most.

It's hard work to tell which is Old Harry when everybody's got boots on.

Bottles last really long. For me a Lamy cartridge lasts 2-3 weeks, hence a bottle really lasts more than a year, however I somehow managed to build a very large collection, while knowing that these bottles may last a lifetime.

The last bottle I finished was Noodler's Bad Blue Heron.

 

Although I "finished" it by throwing it in the trash...

The 4.5 ounce bottle of HoD is dry, almost out of BSB.

I haven't been at this long enough to have finished a whole bottle yet but Kana-cho will likely gain that honor. I've used it the most this past year.

Even though I've been in this for like 1,5 years and write 30-40 pages a week, I can't finish a bottle. I already have 35 of them but change colours constantly, so I might be halfway on my first MB Balzac bottle.

:blush:

My go to black, Noodlers Dark Matter. I always have at least one daily carry pen inked with it and keep a bottle in my desk at work as well as a bottle at home. Iroshizuku Yama-Guri will be next.

May we live, not by our fears but by our hopes; not by our words but by our deeds; not by our disappointments but by our dreams.

      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
