Interesting.. No pictures for now, but my inks, as far as I can recall are:
- Noodler's Bulletproof Black
- Noodler's X-Feather
- Noodler's Navajo Turquoise
- Pilot Iroshizuku Kon-Peki
- Private Reserve Naples Blue
- Private Reserve Sherwood Green
Exams are forthcoming, so I've filled all my pens with X-Feather for now.
On my want to buy list:
- Noodler's Bad Blue Heron
Have tried the Pelikan and Parker Quink inks, don't really like them.

any differences you can tell between the bulletproof black and x-feather? i'll love to try other Noodler's blacks like the dark matter, but i already have 2 black ink bottles, so no point buying more.
What pens are you using them with?

I like the BulletProof Black a bit more than the X-Feather - feels a little bit better on paper somehow. I'm using them with Lamy Safari/Vista in EF nibs. And yes, if you already have black ink, don't bother. |

These are all I have ... Mainly black, blue, blue-black, some green, brown, and purple.  Also have MontBlanc blue-black (iron gall) that was not shown in the picture above. My current favorite is Sailor 1911 Realo Naginata Togi MF nib with Aurora Black, it's so smooth that it gives me the sensation as writing with a brush pen. |

Try: 2) Lin Kong Watch & Pen Pte Ltd (aka Seoww pen?.. or maybe previously was a branch) Peninsula Plaza 111 North Bridge Road #03-53 Its a small quiet shop.. don't get intimidated by the shop.. its quiet but they can really give good discount.. I got my Lamy there.. |

a lamy safari, a converter and a bottle of ink or 2 ( depending on the colors you need) and you're set for a pretty long time!

What the .. I would love to but I couldn't see myself having/using the other fancy coloured ones.. LOL... sometime the combination of pen(s), ink(s) and paper are like the way we tweak in headfi, fun and not that expensive. anyone can recommend me a good fountain pen to start with? lets set a budget of around $100... inclusive of all the inks needed and stuff Lamy is a good choice, but boring... I would suggest Pilot Prera and you could order it from JetPens (not affiliation etc). |
