| I have it both in a bottle (for home) and small cartridges (for travel).
It's awesome. Looks cool with a nice sooty black, like Edelstein Onyx or nearly any teal ink. _________________ Council Member, Trading Post & General Site Moderator.

| Heh, heh. This has turned out to be a project pen. It writes well...for about a half page, then slows down and eventually stops. Ink flow. I cleaned it well prior to its first fill. So given the behavior I'm thinking it's the feed...something between the ink reservoir and the nib. I'll use my baby blue rubber aspirator thing and give it a good blast or three of warm water, maybe some "flush" solution (commercial recipe of water, soap and ammonia - but there are a number of online recipes out there). If that doesn't work I'll do the adjusting the nib for more flow thing. The baby blue bulb blaster... https://www.gouletpens.com/goulet-bulb-syringe/p/GP-10001  _________________ Council Member, Trading Post & General Site Moderator.
