EXPERIENCE, SUM OF ALL ERRORS MADE
SO MUCH INK, SO MUCH FOUNTAIN PENS, SO MUCH JOURNALS, SO MUCH NOTEBOOKS, MY NAME IS WOODWORKER I'M FROM THE NETHERLANDS. I HOPE YOU ENJOY READING THIS BLOG. MY NUMBER ONE NOTEBOOK IS THE MOLESKINE. I ALWAY TEST MY INK AND FOUNTAIN-PEN ON THIS PAPER.
Sailor Kiwagura Nano Carbon Super BlackFRIDAY, MARCH 26, 2010
Is it for everyone the same? I have a passion for fountain pens and have way to much ink. I have some great black inks in my stock: Noodler's Black, Visconti Black, Montblanc Black. How can it be that I always have to try an ink that I don't have...... I bought this Sailor Kiwagura Nano Super Black ink atJetpens in the USA. The have a lot of Japanese stationery and deliver quickly.
Color
OK, the color is black. What more can I say. In my opinion Noodler's Black is blacker. I think Noodler's is a little bit more shinier and Sailor is more mat.
Writing
A big advantage over Noodler's Black is the dryingtime of this Sailor Kiwagura Nano Carbon Black ink. In a Moleskine the ink dries in about 7 seconds. On Rhodia paper it takes about 15 seconds. The flow of the ink is normal just good enough, not dry or to wet. I saw this text on eBay: "Let me tell you about this Nano technology. A normal ink is water like fluid which easily flows through the pens nib. But the normal ink can get erased if water is spilled over it or due to time and temperature, the ink starts fading. The latest Nano technology which sailor has adopted in its ink is that it never gets erased irrespective of temperature, time or water. It is a complete waterproof ink. The flow of this ink is very smooth and in a pyramidal way."
Written review
Can't read it? Here's the translation:
"Sailor Kiwagura Nano Carbon Super Black
What a longe name for a fountain pen ink. I filled my Lamy Al-star (medium) with Sailor Kiwagura.
I must say I am just as suprised as I was trying Noodler's Black. This ink behaves very very well in this Moleskine. No bleed through or feathering in any of my Moleskines. The lines are very sharp and crisp.
I don't know if it is blacker then Noodler's black. But it sure behaves just as good. With a q-tip it sure is black.
$ 0,45/ml is not cheap, but it is black!
This line written with a Lamy nib 1.1, no bleed through either.

The Bottle
The bottle contains 50ml of great ink. It is nicely shaped. But it is not very deep. It is hard for a Pelikan M1000 to suck up enough in.
Desktopimage
Here's a desktop you may use freely. It is at 1920 x 1200. Click on this link.
100% Moleskine proof
This ink is 100% Moleskine proof. I could not find a Moleskine where the ink showed any bleed through. Another great ink you can 100% trust in every Moleskine without bothering about bleed through.
So again a great ink to write with in any Moleskine.
Sailor fountain pen ink is made in Japan from their exclusive formulas. Both bottled and cartridge inks are an alkaline base. Any of the sailor inks can be mixed with one another to create your *perfect* color. Sailor ink should not be mixed with other brands of ink. Sailor's inks are smooth-flowing for use in all your treasured fountain pens. The beautifully designed bottle contains 50ml of ink. Nine rich colors to choose from.
