I have a few pens, Parker Urban, Sheaffer and a Jinhao x450 that I tend to leave in my office. I've also got about 30 ink samples, but trials are taking for ever so I thought I'd ask for your help.
What inks work well for leaving over a weekend and still write when you come in Monday morning? I know it is very pen dependent so your experience and comparisons are appreciated.
My results so far:
Yes: Parker black quink, Noodler's 54th Mass.
Nope: Noodler's Polar Black(this surprised me), Diamine Ox Blood(worst so far), Noodler's Baystate Blue(bad), Noodler's Liberty's Elysium(least bad of the "no" batch)
I'd like to find go-to inks in blue, black, brown, green, and red
PS: as a side note I have a Jinhao 602 I got for $5 that nothing seems to ever dry out in, even ox blood which dries for hard starting in an hour in some of my other pens. Amazed.
