I posted this on FPN as well.
I don't consider myself a newbie, but this one has me stumped. I received a new Edison pen last week (SS nib, fine). Out of the box, filled it with Waterman Blue-Black. It wrote with a wonderfully wet line, a little broader than normal fine, but well to my liking and minimal feedback. Last night I refilled with the same ink, same bottle and it is noticeably drier with a much thinner line than before and scratchy, on same paper. I thought maybe something was clogging the feed channel. I removed the filler and flushed the nib with a bulb cleaner thoroughly and dried it, replaced the filler and it is still writing the thinner line with noticeable more feedback than originally. I'm at a loss. Any suggestions? I have never had a pen exhibit such a change after a simple refill. And no, I did not do anything to the nib between refills.
