I really like this ink.

I bought this in and the Forest Black in the Platinum Classic series. I really like they way they behave and the color. I'm just using both of them in cheap Chinese pens (Hong Dian M2-F, and Jinhao X159-M). I tried to tune both nibs to write a little wetter than normal. This ink has some nice shading and dries fast. I don't know if I can see it turning darker yet but both the Sepia and the Forest have really nice colors.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I fill my fountain pen from an ink sample vial? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

The technique depends on the fountain pen's filling mechanism.

How much writing can I really do with 2ml? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

We find that usually you can get 2 good fills for a typical converter with our ink samples, or one good fill with a large capacity piston-filling pen.

How much writing you can do depends on you more than anything else. It mostly depends on how big or small you write, and the nib size you’re using. We recommend experimenting with different nib sizes to find what works best for you.
