A package with the insides wrapped in a new blue "eco" bubble wrap was waiting in my mail box yesterday afternoon. :clap2:
I am a blue-black as well as a R & K fan so the price of the Rohrer & Klingner - *Limited Edition* Blau Schwarz didn't bother me too much. If you think about the price of a bottle of Pilot Iro, it's a bargain. If you are thinking about buying it just because of the box, well - let's just say it's much to do about nothing (special). Nothing near as nice as the Visconti ink boxes. I guess I wasn't too worried about the LE part because this morning I can't remember if mine is #29 or #129. I immediatly put some in a Lamy AlStar with a 1.1 and my black Studio with a Pendemonium customized .8ci. It writes like a dream - so far - remember, I just put it in last night, so I don't know how it will act after sitting up for a few days. IMO, if you are looking for a true blue/black, this is it. It ain't pretty, and it don't smell good (or bad), it's just a blue ink that is almost black. I have more than a dozen blue/blacks and this one fits my description better than any of the others.
