Verdict

Sometimes it’s green, sometimes it’s blue (it’s the magic of the shimmer, I think), but I like it. I had it in a Lamy Safari for a long while and it does gunk up the nib after a while, so that’s a downer, but what can you do? I sometimes think about buying a big bottle of this ink, so it’s almost got me hooked. I think the red sheen is what stops me.
