This one makes me think of a pale Waterman Harmonious Green - but then, these emeraldy shades always do... :) Thanks for this one too!  Off to see #3.

Nope… not a goddess. At least not for me. Looks like a muted version of Pelikan Edelstein Jade to me… definitely not my type of colour. Thanks for showing us this ink. I must admit that Colorverse shows more diversity in their inks than I was aware of.

I was thinking more that it was a washed out version of vintage Quink Green.  So this is a definite pass for me.

Thanks for the review, Detman101 -- and my wallet also thanks you.

Hey everyone,

 

     I'm glad that you all liked the review. I purchased the little mini-bottles of these colorverse inks (finally...after months of saying I would) because I got a great deal on them at Berts Inkwell. Each of them are 15ml and cost $10, not too shabby and I'm not stuck with tons of ink that I don't like. I can send these off with fountain pen gifts for others and they're not too large of a package for the mail either. :)

I still think I'll stick with samples from Vanness from now on though.
$2.60 is still better than $10...hehe.
😄

      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
