Please do not forget about Liberty's Elysium. It is my absolute favorite and the ink I use by far the most. Plus it is a gorgeous blue (the best one I have ever used) and it is water resistant! It is the perfect ink and I love it. Also the patriotic motif is really enjoyable as well. I will continue to by it and use it everyday and I hope to never see it go away!
I have the Sailor Dipton one. So, I wouldn't recommend it for fine/extra fine nibs, the shimmer won't appear and it miiiiiiight get stuck on the tip (like it happened to my jinhao 9019 extra fine). However, however, however! It worked super dupper well with all my medium and up nibs, specially the stub ones! It's sort of an acquired taste, but it's BEAUTIFUL. I suggest it to all my friends who like shimmer and shade.
Have you not seen Colorverse Blue Dragon? It makes Organics Studio Nitrogen look like an amateur in the sheen department. I bought three bottles of it after I saw how much the color changes with the light. Simply beautiful red sheen unlike anything I've seen before.
Baystate Blue is my go to blue ink. It has some issues with bleeding but for my signing legal documents that is handy to mark legal documents via bleeding.
I’ve got an ebonite pen that still shows sheen from when I used Organic Studios Nitrogen one time only. I’ve scrubbed the pen and never got rid of it. If you get Bay state blue, buy the big bottle and only use the free Charlie pen with it. Mine is so stained you can’t see through the clear body anymore. It’s a permanent sapphire blue.
My favorite blue inks are Diamine Regency Blue and Visconti Blue. The Visconti is water resistant so like Baystate blue you need bleach to clean it out of the pen or off the floor like I had to do...
Tried two batches of Haha (one bottle and one sample) and both of them aint that impressive as anticipated (intend to match with kaweco iridescent pearl), but I am in love with Kikyou from the same series.
It isn't as scary as people make it seem. It does stain rather permanently though with accidents if not cleaned immediately. Although on fabrics it's pretty much permanent as soon as it touches.
would love to see a video like this about the best purple inks!
Yes!!!! I was just about to comment this too!
For green and red as well
Sailor Ink with the Fude dip pen and reservoir is just perfect... Cool blue inks selection in this video
I love Jack Frost it the only blue I write with in the month of December

Organic Studios all the way.
You must've been reading my mind. I was just browsing the website for a blue ink to put in my Pilot Explorer when it arrives.

Why doesn't Sailor put more of their inks in cartilages?

Interesting
Noodler's is my first choice for any color, but Diamine is a very close second.
I wouldn‘t touch Bay State Blue with a ten foot pole but the rest looks nice

Why do all the intense blues take forever to dry.... 😊?
Says the guy who's still holding on to a bottle of penman sapphire he bought in 2002.
I won't call some colors in this list as blue..
