  • @murdelabop
    @murdelabop 4 года назад +2

    My favorite black ink for use on ordinary paper is carbon black inkjet printer ink. At about $15/500ml it has the added advantage that it's super cheap. I'd bet money that's what Platinum Carbon Black actually is, but I have not yet had a chance to do a side by side comparison. I figured that if it wouldn't clog print nozzles designed to apply ink in picoliter droplets then it won't clog up a fountain pen, and for the past month, writing almost exclusively with it in three guineapens, I have had zero problems with it. As always, your mileage may vary.

      @murdelabop 3 года назад +1

      @TRS800 : The thing is that inkjet printers expect some feathering. That's how they mix colors in addition to the pointilist effect. I've used dye based inkjet inks in fountain pens and they feather and bleed EVERYWHERE. I might try again sometime with diluting them to see if that tames the bleeding, when I'm in the mood for another inksperiment.

    I especially like Noodler’s X-feather BLUE. It’s a beautiful deep true blue, smooth and well-behaved, and I haven’t had issues with slow drying even on good paper. It’s bulletproof, too.
    I agree about Waterman’s Audacious Red as an intense warm true red. I use it along with Diamine Meadow (a bright yellow-leaning green dark enough for legibility) and Noodler’s Southwest (formerly Apache) Sunset for annotation. I also like the gorgeous darker red, Diamine Red Dragon.
    I use Platinum Carbon Black all the time in a range of nibs and so far it has behaved well over months even in EF nibs. A great ink for writing and drawing.

  • @sluggger
    @sluggger 2 года назад +3

    For all the years I avoided using fountain pens it was always because I thought there was some specialty to them that would make them less compatible with my every day tasks of writing. Nothing could be further from the truth. I have yet to find a pen and ink combination that is so bad on even the cheapest paper that I have that it is unusable. I have never found a combination that is worse than the cheapest rollerball pens I have. (The only time I've found a combination that is unusable, it is because I'm not writing on paper at all, which is solved by ballpoint or marker.) The worst thing that will happen is some nice property of the ink will be lost/wasted on cheaper paper, and for that I reason I would say the best ink for cheap paper is whatever is cheapest. And indeed some of the cheaper brands like plain Parker, Pilot or Pelikan entry lines, all perform well on cheap paper. And one final note is that I write on a lot of cheap paper, and I've found some of the notebooks I've bought even from the dollar store work well enough that my nicer shading or sheening inks work on them and show the full effect.

    That's a really helpful video but my concern with regular paper and fountain pen writing is not an ink that doesn't feather or bleed through (that's important too, no doubt!), it is mostly the damaging of the nib because of the abrasive nature and level of absorbency of such papers. It happened to one of my M nib pen, the slit of the nib was picking the fibres of the copy paper causing all sorts of problems.

    • @JetPens
      @JetPens  5 лет назад +2

      Hi Soultana! That's a great point. Luckily, paper fibers in the nib slit won't cause any long term issues as long as you clean the the slit regularly. You can use a slim piece of brass or other material in order to "floss" between the tines.

      @TheTanusaki 5 лет назад +1

      @@JetPens Hey! Thank you for your reply! That's true, however in my case I had severe railroading issues even after pen cleaning and maintenance and I believe it was because I was fiddling quite frequently with the tines in my effort to remove the paper fibres. I ultimately had to remove and fine tune my nib. Anyway, my point is that of course you can use low quality paper, the inks that you recommend are great for that purpose but I would highly recommend to use less expensive pens when writing on cheap paper. :-)

      Hi there! In general, mixing inks from the same brand is safe. However, we still recommend a bit of caution: test out your mixture by adding drops of ink to a separate container (like a sample vial) and checking to make sure no precipitate forms. If your test ink looks okay, you can fill a pen with it!

    Noodlers Black Moccasin wardens is the best black ink I have ever used. It is tamper proof, permanent, does not feather and is serial numbered. Every bottle is sightly different in that it can be traced chemically to prove a signature was tampered with. It is also water washable even if dried in the pen. Cellulose in paper is what gives it's permanent binding properties. It even flows on a fine point nib.
    I was not impressed with Waterman's or Mont Blanc's ink at all.

    Carbon is a very heavy ink, practically ТУШЬ (russian lang.). They need to be constantly written and they will not cooperate with every feeder. In general, there are black/water resistant ones that are less demanding and more predictable.

  • @stevehuffman7453

    QUESTION N°1: How is the Rohrer & Klingner Salix a "blue-black"? It MIGHT be a LITTLE darker than Parker's "blue black", but both are mighty similar to Jinhao's "deep blue". None of those are "blue-black" to my eyes; they are merely a moderately darker blue than what you get from a ballpoint. A "blue-black" should look black at first glance. (any "___-black" ink should look black at first glance, otherwise why bother?) The "best" blue-black I've found (so far) is Diamine Twilight, from a wet/wettish nib. Very little if any feathering on cheap copy paper and colored/"construction" paper using wet Jinhao steel Extra Fine, Fine, and medium number 5 and 6 nibs. No bleed through, either.
    QUESTION N°2:
    What Sepia, Red-Black, and Green-Black inks do you recommend? Is there a better Green-Black than Monteverde Jade Noir from a wet nib?

    PSA: This list is pretty bad for anyone looking in 2022. Platinum carbon bleeds through most papers without feathering. Use Noodler's black or heart of darkness or if you don't like Noodler's Sailor Kiwaguro. For blue nothing is better than Noodler's X-feather Blue but again if you don't like it then Lamy Blue is pretty well behaved. Blue-BLack use pilot Blue-Black. Red Use Sheaffer Skrip Red . The pelikan they suggested is fine but it turns orange.
    Also any parker Quinks will do great on cheap paper you just won't have any special properties like water resistance or anything
