    @skip. There's no way any review can tell someone what colour to chose, or all the nuances of a colour: Lighting, pens, papers, and most importantly the person, their tastes, mood and their visual sensitivity to colour. Many people see different colours, when seeing blues for ex.

    These reviews are to give a feel of the inks behaviour, sensations on different papers. Afterwards it's up to you to see if the colour is for you or not.

    I think the reviews do help choices tho, especially if one were looking for a particular class of color. For instance out of those 5 'browns' in your review there's no way I would choose any for my use other than the Antique Copper! But I certainly understand others could feel very differently about this...

    After a many years, I decided to load a pen with Herbin Lie de Thé. It's a really great ink with very good water resistance.... something Ancient Copper lacks.

    M: I came here for a good argument.
    A: No you didn't; no, you came here for an argument.
    M: An argument isn't just contradiction.
    A: It can be.
    M: No it can't. An argument is a connected series of statements intended to establish a proposition.
    A: No it isn't.
    M: Yes it is! It's not just contradiction.
    A: Look, if I argue with you, I must take up a contrary position.
    M: Yes, but that's not just saying 'No it isn't.'
    A: Yes it is!
    M: No it isn't!
