Ink Review- Krishna Writer's Night

[Arijit]

Writer's Night is an ink I have been using since the second half of 2017. As an every day use ink, I recently got two bottles from Dr. Sreekumar, the proprietor of Krishna Inks, and so am writing a review of this excellent ink.

Just like all standard Krishna inks, this ink comes in 20 and 30 ml bottles.

Having used this ink for almost a year, I found it remarkably well-behaved. No staining of acrylic, no blocked feeds and very easy to wash. No shimmer, no sheen, little shading and little feathering and bleedthrough if your paper is over 80 GSM.

It is a formal purple, but the colour is not too subdued. You can read pages of this ink without it being an eyesore too.

Recommended for people who want a nice purple ink for everyday use, and are bored with pages after dreary pages of royal blue.

Thanks for the review. I picked up a sample of this at the Baltimore-Washington Pen Show in March, but haven't had a chance to try it yet. Suspect that when I do I will really like the color....
