Wow another Diamine 150th anniversary ink review! This is a very nice blue! Now you've done it, akszugor! You've made me want to go and buy another bottle of ink... As if I really need another reason to get one.

Great review, thanks! Pretty nice handwriting too.

Thank you for the kind words. Soon another test inks.

I just wrote with this ink today. I have been following the Parker Penman Sapphire replacement thread carefully and at the moment Blue Velvet and Private Reserve American Blue are two candidates. I have both and they are VERY close in color. i think? that the Blue Velvet may have more shading. A very nice ink!

BTW, in my brief search tonight it seems like some stores no longer have this color. Does that suggest it's going away? I don't know but it's a possibility.

I just used this ink for the first time the other day and I really like it! It's quite a nice shade of blue.

OCArt, I hope not! I haven't heard anything about the 150 inks being limited productions, and all the places I looked (Goulets, jet pens, and Anderson pens) still had them in stock, so I'm remaining hopeful!
