I posted this review over on FPN, but forgot to do so here, so let me remedy that right now.

My first Kobe ink. I was hoping for a nice blue-black, and this is a little darker than I'd hoped, at least coming out of my Sailor's M nib. I ended up selling it.

I should point out that the scan makes the ink look bluer than it is on paper. I'll try to take pics of the writing sample this afternoon!

To my eye this is a very good looking ink.

Thanks for the review.

I am not keen on blue blacks except Waterman's. That only because it changes to a teal shade. I have been curious about the Sailor inks and may try a sample at the very least.

The performance of each has been great; I just wish the colors had been a bit more to my taste.

This one is fantastic. Wish it was sold to me! ;)
