    Oh and Migo, besides a Sumi ink, I don't have any black inks as of now
    It looks like a black on my screen, but as we know digital colour representation is, more often than not, deceptive.
    May I ask whether it’s a grey? :-)

    Not not grey. It's one of those xxxxx-black colours.... Very popular with many

    If I have time, I'll try to do another copy with black/grey/brown contrast....

    I wasn't prepared to have to post another, so this might be a bit tougher...

    Not as saturated or as dark as SB (which is, seeing you mentioned it, just about as close to the perfect blue as one can find)...

    So it's not a Waterman (i.e inspired blue) but maybe Pelikan Royal blue?

    I looked over my inbox of 40+ bottles, and I do believe that every ink would be a re-run (except for blacks). It's to the point I've stop buying more ink.
