    Default KWZ Ink - Green Gold

    Hi,
    Not sure if this ink was reviewed in FPGeeks, but because I am reviewing recently on my blog number of KWZ inks, I thought that it my be nice to share some here too. So here it is - the KWZ Green Gold.

    KWZ green gold is actually more yellowish-olive green than gold. The earthy color which I absolutely love reminds me color of the brown sea weed. It has also a 'military'-like feel. The colour is not that far from Diamine 150 Anniversary - Safari but significantly brighter than Sailor Jentle - Tokiwa Matsu. It does not sheen. KWZ Green Gold is fairly wet and well saturated ink. The colour of the text varies from dark rotten green to light sandy brown, depending on pen and nib. It shows nice degree of shading. It ink itself is very pleasant to use. Ink flows well and writing experience is smooth and very pleasant. I really like it.

    Below are some random pictures of KWZ green gold wet and when it dries as well as some writing samples. Enjoy !

    Great review, thanks. How does this compare to one of my all time favourites R&K Alt-goldgruen do you think?

    Thanks. To be honest, I never tried R&K Alt-goldgruen, but just by looking at someones tests it does look fairly similar to KWZ. However to me KWZ seems to be more yellowish or light brown compared to R&K (I may be wrong). Again, It will be cool to compare these two side by side.

    I have both. The R & K is lighter & more green. They aren't really close at all.
