I just bought a Parker Quink Blue, (there isn't permanent written anwhere, but its not washable). It RESISTS WATER, its completley leggible when soaked (neither I could believe it). It's made in france so I don't know if the difference is a change in formula or its origin that changes.

I have absolutely fallen in love with this ink. It came as a cartridge with my Parker IM pen, have bought a bottle afterwards and I am happily using it. Must say, the colour of the ink is totally different from the one in this review, mine is nothing like this (this one is more like my washable blue...). My perm-blue is dark, rich in colour between royal blue and blue-black. My IM with an "M" nib is nice, but a boldish Jinhao X750 "M" pours this ink in a fabulous way, giving a so blueish blue that it's nearly unbelievable. It's also relatively cheap and available nearly everywhere so this will be my blue. Period.

Well, mine says only Blue too: on the bottle and on the box. However, the barcode sticker on the box says "Blue permanent ink". So apparently until they say "washable" it's permanent. Funny logic but this is what Parker seems to act upon...

May I ask what vintage & country this water-resistant Quink is from?

 

On my current travels I'm coming across some Quink boxes which look new to me, they're all over a dark midnight blue across the Colour range but some have a red circled icon with stylised sea blue waves.

 

My Quink stock is still from the half gold half Colour boxes... wondering if there's been any change to ink inside :)

(Thought I had replied to this thread. Hmmm. Must have been to Corniche's review.)

 

My non-fading Quink [Permanent] Blue came from The Writing Desk, 4.99 GBP, about a year ago. The bottle says it was made in France.

 

Back about 2010, Art Brown's International Pen Shop tried to order Permament Blue. Parker Service (Janesville?) replied that Permanent Blue could only be ordered by individuals -- not in store-sized shipments. It was about $15 and Parker US would mail it to each customer. No idea why Parker wanted it that way.

I'm a student so i can't really use very expensive ink in school and blue quink has been my go-to ink for as long as I can remember. I also use it to try out new pens as well as using it when I converting pens to eyedroppers. I have actually not experience any fading in the colour and as kwinana said it really is very similar to the Waterman Florida Blue.

 

Edit: If you are wondering my bottle comes from China and it writes very very wet.

      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..

      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
