Which Inks Are You Using Today?

I did get to use the Diamine Carnival this evening. A nice enough red, on the deep side like I like them, reminds me of KWZ Red.

Oster’s Purple Rock. The perfect dry ink to use in a super-wet Flexiblenib feed. Happy dance!

Today, so far, it's been KWZI Walks Over Vistula, in the Lamy LX. But I have some other pens which I need to either refill or flush, and refilling is less effort....

Hello everyone,

 

Still using vintage Sheaffer Skrip Black loaded in a Waterman 52 1/2:

Tonight I'm trying out the 1864 Blue-black but it's obviously in the wrong (too dry) pen because it's barely darker than the Diamine Registrar's in silverlifter's photo above. Judging from the reviews (and many people's complaints), it should be way darker, almost black. Will have to try a different pen tomorrow.

Worth noting that the photo was taken yesterday, perhaps 10 minutes after I wrote it. By today, the Registrars looks almost black.

(Stain on cap is from Swisher's Noodler's Naval Orange Waterproof Ink, not this Diamine.)

I'm trying to rotate thru my 62 strong fountain pen collection. I was thinking about down sizing, but it turns out that I really like my pens.

R&K Alt Goldgrun and Monteverde Olivine. Amazing shading from the R&K ink.

Interesting. Looks a lot like a Waterman bottle....

Hello everyone,

 

Vintage Sheaffer Skrip Black ink loaded in a Sheaffer Snorkel Periwinkle:

 

[sombrueil]

Birmingham Pens Southside Park Fern Moss in my wet noodle Waterman 52 -- just trying it out. It is too wet for Leuchtturm paper with this lovely nib but wonderful on Rhodia. An interesting dark gray with a green undertone.

In my Newton custom hard rubber with the vintage Waterman nib, a mix of Diamine Autumn Oak and Diamine Golden Honey. A bit too dry.

 

My Eversharp Skyline has Diamine Twilight in it.

 

Vintage Pelikan NN Tortoise is almost always filled with R&K Alt-Goldgrun, I never seem to get tired of that ink.

 

And then my carry pen, a new Pelikan M120, has DeAtramentis Document Black.

Before I buy some samples I'm still using the GvFC Grey cartridge that I was gifted by a pen friend. Thank you so much dear friend

Your recent spate of photos is making me seriously consider buying a broad/wide italic nib... and this from a person who only uses EFs (and the occasional F). Wonderful photos...
