I am giving away a bottle of sailor kobe emerald ink. There was a little spilled on the label and label print wiped off when ink was wiped off. Bottle is 99 percent full. Rules are post why you want to try this ink and I will pick the winner end of the month. Person has to write a thank you letter once ink arrives. I Will use a random selector to choose the winner but only open to lower 48 unless you want to pay for shipping. Will post a pic as soon as I can.

I'd like to try this ink so get a feel for the Sailor inks, as I have never used them before :) Thank you for doing this!

Hmmm... I could do with another green. And I think this ink would provide a nice foil to my other Kobe ink (shinkaichi gold).

I've never tried Sailor inks, but would like the chance to do so and since I'm new to this I've only tried one green ink. It would be interesting to see the color differences between the two. Thanks for offering this neat PIF opportunity. Someone will be real happy to receive this lovely Sailor ink. The thank you note is a given!!! :)

I have also never tried any of the Sailor inks. I will either use it or pay it forward. Most likely use some and spread the love.

Green is one of my favorite colors, and my eyes are green.

I would love to compare this to Iro Syo-Ro and have never had the opportunity to try a Sailor ink.

Thanks very much for the chance.

I just received my first Kobe ink and would love to try another. I've tried a poky green and loved it but it's stained anything i've put it in so would like a high quality green ink.

Edit: if I win I'll be paying postage but that doesn't bother me as where I live most things have to come via the mail.

I am in Canada and would be more than happy to pay the shipping and write a gorgeous thank you note if I were to win this ink. I love green - it is my favourite colour (see my glasses! They are bright green!), and Sailor is one of my favourite companies!

Good luck everyone and thank you for the PIF.

Do not include me in the contest. I just wanted to say this ink color is AMAZINGLY beautiful in the flesh. Everyone should enter this. Carry on. Awesome PIF.

Upon my great grandfathers death I inherited 3 pens, and came here to identify them after being directed at my local Pen Store. Now I need a bottle of ink to try out the Fountain Pen experience. Thanks for your time.

I have never bought any Kobe ink but I assume it's similar to Sailor Jentle ink, and I have just purchased my very first bottle of Sailor Jentle ink: Yama dori.

I love all green inks.

Although I live in the UK, if I can enter the draw and I was the very lucky winner I would be happy to wait until August for shipping as I could then have it sent to my FL address.

I would then be more than willing to write a letter with it while I was in FL.:)

I have never had the opportunity to try a Sailor ink. I have been looking for a special ink for the holidays for cards and notes. I do like to journal with various colors as this is my closet method of being creative.

I love to draw and doodle with with my fountain pens and share these with those that I send letters to. If I win I will guarantee that you will get one of my doodles as well.

I have only recently begun to enjoy green inks and have liked the looks of this Sailor ink in writing samples I have seen. This would make a great addition to my letter writing and FP drawing ink collection.

My package arrived today with the Sailor Kobe Emerald ink, also in the box was a fountain pen ready to be inked up and used!

I will post writing samples and photos this weekend, long day at work and need to get some rest but had to play with the new pen and ink first. Also wanted to make sure that I took a moment to thank Tarheel1 for his generosity, I am truly touched and appreciative.

It was my first fountain pen. Nothing special, but it works well.
