Waterman Nostalgia Fountain Pen Ink - 50 ml Bottle - Intense Black

Excellent ink for fountain pens, ok for calligraphy pens. A bit too thin for my 1.9mm nib lamy calligraphy pen, it feathers out noticeably on complex letters that require dark, broad strokes. But, it isn't advertised as a calligraphy ink, so I can't ding it for that! Would be great for day to day use in the office or journal.

An extremely well-behaved, low-priced ink. I use this in my Lamy Safari F, and it writes well on many types of paper with fairly little feathering or bleedthrough. However, if you are looking for a DARK, black ink, this may not be the choice for you; from my experience, Waterman black seems to be more of a nice dark grey tone. I also don't think it's waterproof. But it does produce some very pretty shading and is a pleasure to write with!
