By now, you know me, the old Sailor bespoke ink pusher, I mean, enabler, with yet another exotic ink from Japan. I must say that I am certainly lucky to have this ink, as this particular shop ceased internet sales when the "craze" hit. I can understand the shop owners not wanting to deal with such a situation. So now you must purchase these inks at their shop in person. Last year someone on the forum was reducing the size of their Sailor collection and I was able to obtain two inks from the Sankodo shop. This one and another to be reviewed shortly. Thankfully this ink is similar to KWZ Rotten Green, F-C Loden, and the like. Not murky per se but greyed. This is a good deal darker than the Sailor Kingdom Note Stropharia aeruginosa. Quite shady, quite fast drying. It is also very water resistant; not quite waterproof but very close. So don't give this one much thought other than to admire it from afar and know there are easily available inks similar in hue with good handling qualities as well.
