    Default Lunchtime ink review: Pelikan 4001 Violet

    Lunchtime ink reviews! I'm taking one ink to work each day and doing one of these during my lunch.

    Pelikan 4001 Violet, dip test with TWSBI Eco 1.1mm stub, on Rhodia dotpad.

    Not ultra-saturated. Still very violet. I found it a pleasant ink to use.

    (I was busy this week so I'm running a bit behind).

    Another nice review of a very presentable ink.

    I’ve been thinking about getting a Pelikan ink that isn’t from the Edelstein line. This one looks very nice. Thank you for your lunchtime reviews.

    It is a worthwhile shading ink........unfortunately....I drifted into greenish inks, and stopped my purple and violet hunt.

    I've got to remind my self to use this ink.
    It's a problem when one has a lot of inks...the good but common inks get pushed in the corner.
