As the titler says - what is your favorite ink, and why? Does it change with the seasons or the use case?

I can start out. My current favorite is Diamine Oxblood. I’m not really sure why this is, but I like the color and it behaves nicely in my Safari. I also enjoy my Iroshizuko Tsuki-Yo, and I really like this color, but I have not tested this much. But I think it will be good in my AL-Star 2023LE Petrol! 😎

    My all time favourite is Sailor Jentle Sky High. I find it to be the perfect shade of blue. Kon-Peki and the ever controversial Baystate Blue are tied for second.

      Looks real good. Never tried Sailor ink - but it’s on my list 🤩

        You might like Sailor Souten then as it is either the exact same formulation or very close to it. It’s not discontinued like Sailor Jentle Sky High, but it’s just a lot more expensive than the old Jentle bottles. Souten now comes in 20ml bottles. Seems like the larger bottles are discontinued. Good riddance. They are a pain to fill from if you have a larger nib
