Review: Best ink good value for money - Since it is a fountain pen ink, it isn’t water resistant, colour is a beautiful cerulean blue, seller is amazing for providing it at a discounted price. Review: Iroshizuku Kon-Peki - This was the most beautiful ink that I have ever used (I have used diamine, private reserve, waterman, Lamy, pelikan, namiki blue, etc inks, this was the best blue/turquoise ink shade). A bit costly due to international shipping and import charge but worth the price.Also, seller unbox japan shipped the ink directly from japan which was nice. ## Features - Premium fountain pen ink - Not waterproof - Suitable for art and writing ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0018HJVS6 | | Brand | Pilot | | Brand Name | Pilot | | Container Type | Bottle | | Country of Origin | Japan | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 965 Reviews | | Display Volume | 50 Millilitres | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04902505367281 | | Ink Colour | Blue | | Item Volume | 50 Millilitres | | Item Weight | 250 Grams | | Manufacturer | Pilot | | Manufacturer Part Number | 暂无 | | Model number | INK-50-KO | | Number Of Items | 1 | | Package Information | Bottle | | Paint Type | Dye-based | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Pilot - **Package Information:** Bottle - **Paint Type:** Dye-based - **Item Volume:** 50 Millilitres - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 04902505367281 ## Images ![PILOT IROSHIZUKU KONPEKI JAPANESE INK - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61dMeV+z+yL.jpg) ![PILOT IROSHIZUKU KONPEKI JAPANESE INK - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81gVaf8cGmL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this a washable, non-staining blue?** A: I'm not sure what you mean by "washable" as I wouldn't consider any ink washable. If you're asking whether this ink will stain your demonstrator pens (like the infamous Noodler's Bay State Blue), it won't. I've used this ink (my favorite blue by the way) in my TWSBI ECO, TWSBI 580, and Pilot Custom Heritage 92 and have never had a problem with staining. It is not permanent on paper and will smear/run if exposed to water. Hope this helps. **Q: Is this a washable, non-staining blue?** A: I highly doubt that it is washable or nonstaining, although Ive never tested that. This brand of ink offers vibrant colors that are pretty intense. It's my favorite ink by far, but I'm guessing it's pretty permanent. **Q: How long does a bottle last?** A: That depends on how much you write. The bottle is 50ML and your average cartridge converter holds 0.8ML so figure 1ML per fill on by the time you wipe off your nib after filling I fill my pen on about 1 or two times a day. I tend to write a fair amount every day so a bottle of ink last me around a month and a half your mileage will vary depending on pen paper writing style etc. **Q: Is this blue close to Private Reserve American Blue? I hate dark blues, they look purple to me.** A: No ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best ink good value for money *by P***U on 27 November 2022* Since it is a fountain pen ink, it isn’t water resistant, colour is a beautiful cerulean blue, seller is amazing for providing it at a discounted price. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Iroshizuku Kon-Peki *by ?***? on 22 February 2017* This was the most beautiful ink that I have ever used (I have used diamine, private reserve, waterman, Lamy, pelikan, namiki blue, etc inks, this was the best blue/turquoise ink shade).
