5.0 out of 5 stars Great Brand, Great Ink
A beautiful brilliant blueish color. A bit dark when the pen comes to a stop, e.g. at the end of a letter, but I believe that has more to do with the pen and its ink flow. Not very waterproof at all, if you get some water on it it will easily blur out and become completely illegible (but if you get it on your skin you will need to do a bit of scrubbing to remove it); so if you need something for official documents that absolutely cannot be washed out, you may want to consider another type of ink. However, it works just fine for letters, checks, etc., and looks even better if used with a medium/calligraphy nib.
5.0 out of 5 stars The best ink for vintage pens. (sorry Quink)
The decision of Sheaffer to discontinue the Skrip line left me scrambling to find replacements. I use all kinds of black inks in my pens, from Kaweco, Pilot, Sailor (I quite love Gentle Black), Platinum (carbon black is another favorite), Monteverde . et al.. But Sheaffer had a very special place on my shelf. It was THE black ink that i used in any pen, regardless of vintage or how long i was planning on leaving it in there. I knew it would flow easily, wash out easily and give me a dark black line. I've used it since i was a boy in old Sheaffer pens, from the mid90s flat top range (which were the first such pens i used), to Parkers, Vintage pens of all kinds. I've just never had trouble with this ink. I never was easily able to find a replacement. Parker Quink Black is a very easy ink to clean but is not terribly dark, even as it is very wet. Herbin Perle is gorgeous but i find it tends to dry out very quickly and it is so saturated, i try to use it very quickly in vintage pens. Pelikan, i initially bought to use in pens that have noticeable nib creep, but it is such a phenomenal ink, I've just switched bit by bit, to using it in everything. It isn't as dry an ink as i assumed it would be; nevertheless, in pens with very light flow, i find this ink actually shades up a bit. It's super dark, matte-black normally. It writes smoothly in every pen i've tried. Funnily, Pelikan Blue-Black has taken Skrip Blue-Black's place on my shelf as well. It's every bit as good (if not better). I should mention waterfastness, or "bulletproofness" is not something i typically look for in an ink. I don't care in the slightest for such properties - I actively seek inks that don't have these properties - i just use these inks as daily writers, and so weigh my opinions accordingly. For anyone with a vintage pen collection trying to avoid more alkaline Japanese inks and looking for a nice dark black which won't dry out in a sac or aerometric convertor, this is really the first (and maybe only) ink you should need.
5.0 out of 5 stars Product does what it says it will do.
This 30 ml bottle of Royal Blue ink is the exact color I was hoping for. It comes in a handsome, convenient bottle for refilling my pens. The ink flows perfectly from my pen and the ink is permanent. While a bit pricy, it does the job with my writing instruments.
4.0 out of 5 stars Easy Flow & Low Bleed
The Pelican 4001 Fountain Pen Ink is a significant improvement over the Cross cartridge ink that I was using so far. The points to note are:- The colours are rich.- The viscosity of the ink is not high and the ink flows well.- The ink does not bleed.- The ink is not water resistant and will smudge upon contact with water.See enclosed images, including the one of the spiral bound notebook where the paper is of low quality, and where Cross ink used to bleed, but Pelican ink does much less. The other image is of writing on cotton paper. Recommended.
5.0 out of 5 stars Writes Well
It’s a rich black in that writes well. The bottle is a bit hard to use a fountain pen converter with, but it just takes some finagling. I haven’t seen any runs or leaks, and the ink is smooth and quick to dry once on paper.
5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty color
This is a nice ink for fountain pens. Not waterproof, but a pretty antique color.
