Love Pilot Iroshizuku inks — great colors, saturation, and wetness. I experience no feathering at all.

The standard Namiki inks arrive in easy-to-fill-from bottles, reasonably priced, well behaved, and possessing some water resistance (at least the black and blue). For more colors, try the more expensive Iroshizuku offerings made also by Pilot.

This ink never disappoints. Azalea is a wonderful color for my Singularity of the same name. Excellent quality even though a bit expensive. Try a smaller bottle if you are unsure of the color. Highly recommend.

I received my Namiki/pilotNippon Art Golden Pheasants Fountain Pen from PenChalet last week. A GRAIL pen! 5.5" of lacquered brass,2 flying pheasants & a bunch of bugs for pheasant food. Perfect art work. Beautiful #10 M nib,broad shouldered,some flex,nice wet line. Con 70 converter easily loaded Pilot Tsukushi ink & then writing bliss. I admit I like Namiki/Pilot high end pens, consistently great build, nibs & they write every time! Pen Chalet offered a great price, quick delivery & the best service in the internet business. I've been a customer for 7 years & I highly recommend Ron & the rest of the fine folks at Pen Chalet. I hope the pheasants don't eat the bugs & fly off hunting another meal! Wichita Lawyer

What can be said about this pen. It is beautiful. The silver is bright. The pen has some heft but feels good in the hand. I have yet to write with it, but I have confidence in the brand. Thank you Pen Chalet for making this pen available at a great price.

I can't say enough great things about Pilot Iroshizuku bottled inks. They all have a unique character: they waiver back and forth from dark tones to soft hues depending on how one writes. I have 12 bottles of this ink and love them all. I bought Chiku Rin or bamboo forest from Pen Chalet. I'd say it's my second favorite, Ina Ho being my first. You can't go wrong with this ink. It flows well in all my pens without clogging and no hard starts. Buy a bottle: you won't be disappointed!

I enjoy using Iroshizuku inks. I've eyed these sets of three small bottles for quite some time, and recently purchased a set for a gift. These are lovely little bottles of beautiful inks. The purple and dark blue are both beautiful deep colors. The green is pretty, too, but is much lighter in color. I've since ordered a single small bottle of the Asa-gao (blue) for myself. In my experience, Iroshizuku inks perform extremely well and the bottles are a delight to behold. They are relatively expensive inks, but worth it in my opinion. (A bottle of ink lasts a long time!) I have a large full-size bottle of Kon-peki, which is probably my favorite ink.

The blue is a modest blue - not sensational. It is somewhat water resistant but not for water colorists, I think. I have a couple pens that need the flow characteristics.

I didn't know these 3 inks come with such a Nordic / Japanese packaging - How elegant and delightful! And ofcoz the Iroshizuku inks are up to their reputation: beautiful colours and well lubricated. I wasn't tempted by the famous Kon Peki before, but after trying it via this package I can't wait to get a full bottle! I hope there are more combination of 3 packs coming!

Wow! This blue is amazing! Absolutely love the color...
Packaging is definitely premium as well. I am very impressed with the packaging and the bottle look. Everything seems to be premium.
It flows fairly wet, and has a longer-than-I'm-used-to drying time.
The negatives - not waterproof at all. Smears easy. I'd wonder about its use in high-humidity. And I wonder how I'm going to fill the converter when the ink bottle is low.
For amazing color, without the need for waterproofing, I highly recommend this ink. I will purchase again.

Bought to add to my growing ink collection whilst buying my Pilot 912FA. The price was £10 UK pounds sterling less from PenChalet than I could get it in the UK, so it was no contest to buy this from PenChalet. The bottle is a beautiful functional piece, quite heavy with a thick bottom and a 'V' in the centre so you can get at all the ink. I've watched several reviews about Iroshizuku ink on The Pen Habit, FP Geeks and SBRE Brown you tube channels and Yama Budo is very attractive to myself. I intend to use it in my Pilot 912 for personal journal entries and to write to friends confidant that it will cause comments when viewed.
In future purchases from PenChalet I will request other colours as this ink is quite expensive in the UK in my opinion.
Dealing with PenChalet was pleasant, personal and impressive.
