You can find the full review on my blog, here is a direct link to the full review: Waterman Black Ink Review

 

This is a great solid true black ink, its wet but behaves well, no bleed through or feathering. If you are looking for a nice solid black ink this might just be what you are looking for. I like this much better than the Diamine Onyx Black that I also have (review coming soon).

Nice review. A good black ink, a little faint compare to lamy Black, very light in comparison to Aurora Black. Good flow, but could be more black.

This is my regular black, mostly because it is easily available in local shops here and I use a lot of black for my daily/work writing. However, this black is not as dark as I would like it to be. In medium/broad nibs it is ok, but in fine nibs is a bit on the light side, as the previous poster commented. The best thing perhaps about the Waterman inks is the absolute absence of flow problems. If it does not write well with Waterman it won't write at all.
