The Iroshizuku inks are really fantastic inks. I only have two, and have tried a couple more, but I can see another bottle or two in my future.

If J Herbin keeps making the 1670 ink but...

Bassguy...the ink just arrived this evening. I already loaded up a pen with the Black Swan, thanks.

I got some sample vials from Goulet, so I'll load up a few and send them back. I'm thinking Kon...

IsaacRN, jleeg, Dwarvenchef are regulars on FPN. I have lurked for a couple of years and finally registered this year. There are a few FPN members that are into wetshaving, but I don't think they...

You're doing something right when an Edson doesn't even make it into the tray. Very nice. How about a left to right rundown of the line up?

p.s. I don't even want to know what you're doing with...

I just ordered some sample vials, so if anyone else wants to get an ink exchange going let's talk about it. We need to get Dwarvenchef involved, he's got ink AD (IAD?) pretty bad. He hates blue, but...

IssacRN,

Very nice collection! How do you like the Edison? They're made about an hour from where I live. I've been tempted to contact Brian and see about a visit.

Bass guy,
I would do a mini ink swap with you. Maybe you would like to try some Iroshizuku? I have Yama Budo (Wild Grapes Burgundy) and KonPeki (deep ocean blue). I also have some Noodlers,...

BTW, Mitch Levy (Howard's son?) is an SRP member. He came to the Ohio get together a couple of years ago with a whole case full of Bexleys.

Did you get the one that was listed with the Pelikano 600? Is so, that's a great looking pen. The nib is a fine, isn't it? Should be perfect for those cookbook notations.

Hey! Save some $$ for razors, strops, creams and soaps!:)

I've been using Iroshizuku Yama Budo. It's a beautiful burgundy color, flows and shades beautifully and comes in a great bottle. The bad news is that it is the Castle Forbes of ink, in terms of...

Hey DwarvenChef...
Check out the Friday entry on Ink Nouveau, which is Goulet Pens blog. Link

Buy a large bottle of Noodlers and get a free pen. Pretty good deal, if you ask me.

For a very inexpensive, but very usable pen something from Noodlers would be a good suggestion. Their pens start at $14 and work very well. Goulet Pens carries them. TWSBI pens are highly...

Quite right, although inks vary in their viscosity and drying time which can make one ink write "dryer" or "wetter" than another when used in the same pen.

Check out some of the ink reviews on Fountain Pen Network. Discussing flow and bleed through of each ink is sort of SOP under their format and frequently there is a comparison using various types of...
