Day 8 of #Inktober
Iroshizuku shin-ryoku
It's a gentle green, with just a hint of teal in it. It's new to me, but it seems as well behaved as all the rest of the Iroshizuku inks I've tried.

Pen of choice today - red Lamy Safari, with fine size nib, inked with Pelikan Dark Green. #FountainPens #Lamy
@BennysLittleThings I feel like that could be a fun hashtag: #OnMyDesk
I'm on the road for work, and my hotel room (bizarrely) has no desk or table. But I can kind of use my nightstand.
I usually travel with a few pens. This time it's a Taccia Spotlight, a TWSBI Vac-700R, a Retro51 Tornado, a Jinhao X750, and an Esterbrook Estie.

Whoever just robbed the last sample of KWZ's Honey from my Vanness shopping cart, I hope it leaks on your fingers!!!!!!!! (And then you have a good time with it, and it works for you and your needs!) I'd been looking at that for weeks 😭
Day 7 of #Inktober
Birmingham Pen Company Blue Ribbon
A very pleasant dark blue with just a hint of gray in it and a bit of shading. A very well behaved, if slightly wet, ink.

Me: The Kaweco Piston Sport #FountainPens really haven't appealed to me, which is good because they're super expensive.
Kaweco: *releases the burgundy colorway*
Me:
On the Desk. Oct 7th. Still reaching for the Uniball One P. Ink is smooth even in .038. And today's FP is TWSBI Vac 700 R inked with Iroshizuku Take-Sumi.
What's on your desk?

Kaweco have announced the last 2 colours in the Lunar Sport series—Shadow Purple & Light Purple—along with the latest colour in the AL Piston Sport range with a rather lovely Bordeaux colourway. Similar to the previous Navy version, it can look subdued in some lighting, but quite vibrant in others.
All 3 are set for release on Wednesday next week. I'm hoping we might get to see them at the #LPS this weekend.

Day 6 of #Inktober
Noodler's North African Violet
It's a pleasant, if generic, purple. It's supposed to be water resistant, but I haven't tested that yet.

When the Tariff Hurts More Than the Nib Delivers
Hit with a surprise 35% tariff ($24.30 on $70) for a Kanwrite titanium "flex" nib, only to find it too stiff to yield practical flex. I quickly swapped back to my reliable JoWo #6 Smooth Cursive Italic, expertly tuned by Damien at All In The Nib. Lesson learned.https://inkwell.social/stoicalgeezer/when-the-tariff-hurts-more-than-the-nib-delivers
On the desk today. F-C model 03 and Uniball One P.
