INK SWAB: 135/365 – De Atramentis PI Tchaikovsky
I’m guessing that ole Tchaikovsky here is a twin for another De Atramentis gray ink, but I don’t know which one.
I have a fantasy that one day I will sit down and figure all of them out – in my copious amounts of (nonexistent) spare time.
INK SWAB: 134/365 – Sailor Jentle Grenade
Sailor Jentle Grenade is one of the discontinued inks from Sailor.
INK SWAB: 133/365 – Pelikan Brilliant Green
Pelikan Brilliant Green is a really nice looking bright green. I’ve not written with it yet, have you?
INK SWAB: 132/365 – Rohrer & Klingner Scabiosa
Scabiosa from Rohrer & Klingner is such a popular ink. I’ve never written with it, but should change that soon.
If we’re being totally honest here, the name is a bit of a turn-off. Right?
INK SWAB: 131/365 – Akkerman Oranje Boven #16
It’s been awhile, but I’ve written with this ink quite a bit and love it. In fact, I featured it in a This or That last year.

INK SWAB: 129/365 – Pelikan Edelstein Onyx
Another black ink. Did you ever tell me how many black inks you have? Full bottles, I think I have, maybe, three.
INK SWAB: 128/365 – Diamine Bilberry
Lots of people talk about Diamine Bilberry. I don’t know why I’ve not had it in a pen yet (so many inks, so little time!). I plan to rectify that situation as soon as possible. Stay tuned!
Is this purple? Is it blue? Does it matter? Here’s a link in case you’re curious about what a bilberry is. Have you ever tasted one?
INK SWAB: 127/365 – Sheaffer Green
Sheaffer Green looks like more of a teal in this swab. I’m not loving it.
Here’s a link to the sample over on Goulet Pens so you can see what others have to say.
