Namiki Kon-Peki - I've tried several Noodler's Blues including Liberty Elysium and Midway Blue but Kon-Peki is my new favorite!
Re: What Inks Have You Acquired Recently?
Recently, at the Raleigh, NC pen show, I picked up a bottle of Noodler''s Black Swan in Australian Roses
and an Organics Studio Masters ink whose name I can't recall - it's a nice black.

Re: What Inks Have You Acquired Recently?
Pilot and Namiki are one and the same, and many suppliers list it under the Namiki name e.g. https://www.iguanasell.com/products/...stal-ink-50-koIs that Pilot Iroshizuku Kon-peki?

Excuse me for trying to help.
Re: What Inks Have You Acquired Recently?
Diamine Kensington Blue (30mL). I'm almost out of my bottle of royal blue (Rohrer & Klingner's Konigsblau) and wanted something a little different but still in the vein of royal blue. I know the bottle is a bit small to use, especially for a piston-filler like my TWSBI Diamond 580, but I figure I'll just dump it out into the empty R&K bottle (which has less than 10mL anyway).

I've become a Kaweco ink addict. I think I have every color, at least every color online. They are really rich and wet-flowing.

Re: What Inks Have You Acquired Recently?
Um, I'd better not list all the inks that were waiting for me yesterday on my return to the UK. To do so would confirm to you all my complete inky madness. But here is just a selection......
- extra bottles of the discontinued Levenger Pomegranate
- bottles of Lamy Dark Violet
- GvFC Violet Blue - unloved by many but it's just so pretty
- Seitz Kreuznach Cinnamon Brown & Dark Lilac + a few others.....
- Mb Shakespeare Red
- more Edelstein Amethyst & some Aquamarine (matching M205 with gold nib on order)
- R & K Kaffee Kantate
plus a good few more. Ooops ;-)
One bottle that I really don't know the reason for buying. Lamy Coral. Maybe I bought it in my sleep! It's just not my colour. So I'll move that one on.

Tsk, tsk.
Re: What Inks Have You Acquired Recently?
New inks for the week are:
MB Leo Tolstoy (making a total of 3)
MB Toffee Brown
MB Corn Poppy Red
MB Burgundy Red
MB Irish Green (well in the post and coming).
And I found these two beauties in an antiques store on the weekend. Although not much chop for FP's I just couldn't resist the bottles!

Hanging my head in shame.... ;-)
Re: What Inks Have You Acquired Recently?
MB Shakespere from a boutique. Have to say I am not particularly fond of the colour so I am hoping that prices for this ink get as crazy as some of the other WE inks on eBay.

Re: What Inks Have You Acquired Recently?
From what I've read just recently I went with some Sailor inks which are supposed to be very FP friendly. Purple, dark green, and Copper Pheasant. All three are great. Highly recommended.

Re: What Inks Have You Acquired Recently?
I've been thinking of buying a bottle of MB Shakespeare. I prefer dark reds over the bright and orangey red inks. I imagine that the current MB LE inks would get more expensive over the years, but I don't think that their prices are going to spike as high as the old ones did. It seems that MB have been producing and marketing their latest LE ink bottles much longer than before. I might be wrong, though.

Re: What Inks Have You Acquired Recently?
I completely forgot I started this thread until I came back tonight looking for a "What are the new inks youve gotten lately" type thread
I have a bottle of Caran d'Ache Chromatics in Magnetic Blue and a set of three small bottles of Iroshizuku coming Wednesday.
Re: What Inks Have You Acquired Recently?
Got the entire alternate Sailor Jentle seasonal inks from Maruzen last month! Unfortunately was not able to snag any rare Athena inks.. =l
