Hey, i was wondering what everybody else uses for their fountain pens? i like waterman black ink, the only drawback's the fact that it it actually a dark blue. i'm thinking of trying out a different ink.

Didn't realise that people put ink into fountain pens. Thought they were just a fashion accessory, just another 'show' piece.

Parker Royal Blue.
Definitely Royal Blue.

Shaunak.

Parker, yes, but it's the Blue-Black for me
But definitely Parker!

Blue is a spiritual colour to write with, and black suggests precision, a lack of ambiguity. A deep navy, like Parker Blue-Black, or the Watermans mentioned above, is just right(They could have called it Black Saphire). Why Parker? I love the texture of the Parker ink. And it never clogs in the pen
Blue for a poet, black for my banker, and a deep navy for me.

I always use turquoise ink....i don't actually know why. it's nice and bright, and it cheers me up. Plus it's different. navy blue is a close second. in my opinion it sugests depth.

I usually use Sheaffer Jet Black in my Rotring Fountain pen.
Sometimes I use Parker Black
