Caran d'Ache Ecridor Retro filled with Moonlight of Higashiyama (not as dry as I expected from some reviews)

Your writing sample looks much more saturated than mine.

Hmmm - it's dry pen, really. It looks even more saturated in Kaweco. My initial impressions are positive although I can understand why some people won't like it. The only cryticism I have is the fact it's not the ink you can easily use if you have tendency to leave the pen uncapped on the desk. It'll dry out after 40 - 60 seconds. But tests are still being made, let's wait with the verdict.

Thank you for this post & previous one showing a nice sample of the ink in use. I just received notice my bottle is on the way & I am excited to see I like this ink "even better, the more I see of it!" It had been a bit more subtle in earlier reviews & I am grateful for this example. I was happy with the subtlety of the Stone Rd of Gion, enough to order it with this ink, but you have made me very anxious for THIS one's arrival.

 

Thank you for sharing so many inks in review that we would never know about, nor experience; I surely am grateful to see the efforts of your knowledge & hard works shared here.

Diamine Oxford Blue sample arrived, it's very nice, between MB Permanent Blue and Oxford I might have a new daily ink.

I am playing with two inks that I ordered from Tekker. One is what I had originally called "Tan Pink" but now think is a dead-ringer for the old "Silly Putty" we used to play with when I was a kid. The other, "Azul Celeste" is the official sky-blue color of the Argentine flag:

The pen in rotation is Waterman Kultur ( fine nib) and it is inked with Diamine Majestic Blue. The pen is absolute wet writer and the ink has a beautiful stunning golden sheen. I love this ink.

The ink is just plain gorgeous, love the flow, the lubrication, the colour and top of that all, the massive sheen.

Architekt - Herbes alla Roma. I've come to enjoy the flow of this ink--wet writer with a med/broad nib. Today using a Piper FP with a Jinhao Med. Nib. This nib writes more like a broad nib, really requiring a 24# weight paper. Experienced bleedthrough using the Rhodia Dot Pad. Did better with 24# weight copy paper. This color ink would really stand out using ivory, gold or copper colored paper. Will be using some Southworth Fine Parchment Paper to write a couple of letters later today. The green is not quite as dark as we see in the snap; it is somewhat lighter, yet nicely saturated. The last time I wrote a letter with this ink, the recipient loved it with the ivory colored parchment paper. This recipient is now a fountain pen user--has thrown away his ballpoints--and has been bitten by the 'bug'.

I am using the sheen and shade king Iroshizuku YamaBudo and it is filled in ASA TransNauka which is reviewed here : LINK
