Sailor Kujukuri Coast limited edition inks: Hamanasu, Katagaishikai, Hakkakuao and Hamachidori

Platinum Classic Ink Lavender Black

I endeavour to be frank and truthful in what I write, show or otherwise present, when I relate my first-hand experiences that are not independently verifiable; and link to third-party content where I can, when I make a claim or refute a statement of fact in a thread. If there is something you can verify for yourself, I entreat you to do so, and judge for yourself what is right, correct, and valid. I may be wrong, and my position or say-so is no more authoritative and carries no more weight than anyone else's here.

A big bottle of Monteverde Valentine Red, which was a bargain at £7.95 on UK Amazon.

 

Fingers crossed this is the pink leaning red I've been hunting for but if not, I love Monteverde inks enough to plough through that bottle anyway.

Still waiting for my large order from overseas, but now in addition to that also Kobe #57 Hime Ajisai and Stipula Verde Muschiatto.

A bottle of Aurora Borealis from Diamine. Never ordered from them directly, so I'm curious how it'll be. Haven't got an email telling me they shipped it out, but I bought it a week ago so I hope it's almost here. X;D

Parker Penman Ruby. It's a color I haven't tried, and I will now have all the Penman colors except for Ebony, and I'm not really a black ink user.

When I've ordered from them, they dispatch so lightning fast that (being in the UK) they usually land on my doorstop the next day. You shouldn't have long to wait :)

Looking back at ink samples I had used in June of last year in my ink journal... and remembered how much I loved the R&K Alt Goldgrun sample. I just ordered a bottle.

Waiting for Hero 232 iron gall blue-black ink from Aliexpress. One of the best IG inks in my opinion.

I just received a vintage liter bottle of Pelikan blue black (roughly a third left)

And two smaller 0.5 L bottles with green and red ink, although the latter has gone down the drain due to unwanted life..

(I knew the chance was 90%, I had a sliver of hope it would just be coagulated dye, but alas) The glass bottles are neat though 🙂💙

Hi,

 

I see, Your collection is growing. :-)

How does it write? I have some 4001 Blue-Black made in the 1990s - it looks like a cold gray now.

 

Best

Jens

I didn't, but the ink arrived so I don't mind. :)

I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but it is a lot more blue than my small recent 4001 blue-black 😊

And my collection has exceeded 11 Liters with my purchases of several bigger bottles 😂

Diamine Earl Grey and Green/Black. You just can´t order a new pen (especially demonstrator) without some ink, can you? :D

A little splurge at Cult Pens has the following on the way to me:

 

Cult Pens Deep Dark Orange

Cult Pens Deep Dark Green

Monteverde Olivine

Diamine Chocolate

Diamine Handel

Robert Oster Fire & Ice

 

One rather obvious, odd one out there but have been meaning to grab a bottle of Fire & Ice for months.
