If you are happy; WE are happy!

 

There is nothing nicer than changing your mind about an ink you already own & deciding it is pleasing after repeated use. I don't give many of mine the second, or in your case the third chance.

Second that! I have a few cases of inks that I have gone back and wondered , why was it that i didn't like it in the first place?

Well, I would say they got the color right. However, with the finer point pens, it is hard to tell that it's green, at least in the scans. It looks way more of that grayish color.

I now, have come to like Streetcar Green ink. Took a long time and using it in different pens, but now I am a "lover" of the ink. C. S.

This is a gem of a store in the French Quarter

Great inks, pens (I bought a glass pen which I love) and great personnel. Helpful beyond reproach. They wrapped up my pen and inks so there would be no problem in carrying them home. Everything arrived safe and sound. If I ever get back there aside from everything else in the French Quarter Papier Plume is a must visit store.

​I recently purchased a couple of bottles of Street Car Green. Very evocative of my NOLA French Quarter experience

Ah! Thanks for your review! This brings me nearer to a substitute of Montblanc's Palm Green/Daniel Defoe!

I need to look this further I seem to remember DD having a little more yellow on it, but I'll check!

Me too! one of my top grey inks, and has a slight slight hint of blue

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
