4001 Historical Bottled Ink for Fountain Pens, Royal Blue, 62.5ml, 1 Each (340299)

Excellent ink. Colour true, smooth flow from pens. Good quality. Dries quickly. Can use it in a variety of pens.

Just got back into fountain Ink pens and wanted a good ink. It's been close to 30 years, since I've used a fountain pen. Gave this Ink a whirl and it was worth it. First, the bottle is super kool looking. Second, the Royal Blue is really nice color and the ink flows really well. I've tried the ink on a copy of different paper types and no bleeding with a medium Nib. So far, I'm happy with this ink and will be trying the black next. Very happy with this Ink and think it's a good purchase and will buy more. Thanks

Quality ink.

Eraser, search for "Ink Eradicator" Washable, add some Oxi-Clean. Great shade of blue, easy to read, and being a "dry" ink, it's friendly to cheap paper since bleeding is minimal. As far as performance, this ink writes well, dries fast, and strongly resists bleeding. It is not waterproof and is definitely not considered a permanent ink (don't write out your checks with this). Within two weeks of getting this ink, I thought I destroyed a shirt when a poorly capped pen stained my shirt very blue. First time out of the wash the blue was mostly gone; I tossed it back in and added some Oxy-Clean. Second time out of the wash and the blue was completely gone. Even from the seams, the blue ink was gone. Yes, this ink is washable. Super Pirat Ink Eradicator sold by Pelikan will "erase" this ink on paper. In facet most blue inks are designed to be washable which implies they're also erasable. Blue ink, specifically Royal Blue for Pelikan, was the color ink used in schools to teach kids how to write with a fountain pen. Can't have kids with permanent ink on their clothes, rugs, desks, etc, so that's why we have washable blue fountain pen inks for over a century. Blue ink cartridges are also erasable, as are straight "blue" inks from other vendors. Variation on blue, such as blue-black, or dark blue, need not be washable. But if the ink is described as "royal blue" or "blue," it is most likely washable/erasable. I've been collecting FPs for about a year, and this was news to me. For the same ink performance, but without the washability, any other color of the 4001 ink line will work.

I really like this ink. It flows exceptionally well and doesn't have issues with drying. It does tend to bleed a little, but that might be attributable to the low quality papers I'm encountering lately. But even when bleeding is an issue, I haven't noticed a lot of feathering. I've used this ink in several different pens so far and I've noticed that it seems to be very well suited for fine and extra fine nibs. I haven't had any problems with clogging to date. I left off the 5th star because I'm not as happy with the color as I am with the functionality and quality of the ink; I'm in search of the perfect shade of blue and this isn't quite it. However, this ink is really a pleasure to write with, even in inexpensive pens. I've noticed that even the pens with scratchy nibs write more smoothly with this ink.

This ink is great. The bottle has a nice shape, easy to fill from and the textured lid makes for easy opening and closing. It is very blue, the kind of blue I imagine a blue pen would dispense. It does write different than the standard ink some pens come with, cartridge ink for example. In the Pilot MR Animal, the pen wrote better than it had. I fell back in love with the pen after souring on it. In my moleskine there was significant bleed through and some feathering but in my Paperquest notebook there was none. This ink won’t break the bank and it’ll leave great vivid blue color on your pages. Terrific.

Love the color, nice and smooth,

Pelikan ink is everything I expected it would be. High quality ink that works in any of my fountain pens....I have many different kinds from inexpensive to fairy expensive. I can rely on Pelikan ink to pass my smudge test, dry and wet. It dries extremely fast...meaning if I try to smear it 3 seconds after laying the ink down on paper it is dry!! It passed my water repellent test as well. a few seconds after applying the ink to paper I use water and try to smear it and it barely smeared at all!! The words remained intact and you couldn't even tell it had been hit with water. Excellent fountain pen ink. It 100% passed the "LilyMar" testing. Thanks, I hope this helps anyone.

Inchiostro stupendo, colore vivo e brillante, scorre che è un amore e si lava via in poco tempo. Ottimo

Fluida, suave y segura con un todo azul muy bonito, no se degrada la intensidad del color al secar, la recomiendo perfectamente para TODAS las plumas ya que además es fácil de lavar:)

Toll dieses schöne Tintenglas zu haben! Mir gefällt es gut. Ich kaufte es nur wegen der Aufmachung. Ich schreibe mit Kolben- wie mit Konverter-Füllfederhalter und auch mit Tauch- und Glasfedern und habe diverse Tinten zuhause, eine davon, eine Eisengallustinte sogar selbstgemacht. Auch die Pelikan 4001 Königsblau hatte ich schon, aber ich konnte dem historischen Gläschen nicht widerstehen. Die Tinte ist gut, die Farbe schön, sie ist löschbar und nicht gut lichtbeständig, sie schadet einem guten Füllfederhalter auch beim Eintrocknen nicht. Wer was beständiges möchte muss weitersuchen wer damit leben kann kauft ein schönes Tintenglas mit schönem Etikett.
