Hmm... nice review but a disappointing ink (IMO). Their Horizon Blue was/is -- as re a blue -- fantastic.

I find it very odd when a label so blatantly contradicts the content... But thank you for the review, I always appreciate learning something I didn't know.

I think the ink performs very well and is very wet even in very dry pens. Just the color is ho hum.

thanks for the review

mhm... if I got a bottle of this I would immediately start some mixing tests with gradually growing amounts of Horizon blue...
