I received sixteen samples (marked in cursive) from well known ink enabler - Cyber6. Thank you Claudia You rock!

On Robert Oster's shop website Blue Night is described as follows: "Flows on like a 1940s deep dark blue motor car duco, dries on Blue at Night with great day/night like shading". The color is great, shading decent, and the ink behaves very well. I'll consider getting a bottle.
