Pen: Kuretake Fountain Brush Pen, Model No. 50
Paper: Hobonichi Original TR
Ink: Pigment ink cartridge that came with the pen, Kuretake-branded
A first test. The ink began almost immediately (there's no feed like in fountain pens to go through, I suppose). Initially, the ink appeared brown due to residual oil, but gradually turned into a true black.
Initial impressions: love the pen, and the ink that came with it. It feels like this ink will be friendly on all papers as it is fairly dry (but still writes smoothly/wetly, an insane combo). I mean the ink probably still has a lot of residual factory oil in it, and still no feathering/showthrough/bleeding? Come on.
I swear I don't work for Kuretake (I wish), but starting to become one of my fav stationery brands!
