I did mention that the Graphite was a different kind of black fountain pen ink – one I had never encountered before. Well here it is – bleeding out red and turquoise with a hard gold yellow when subjected to bleach. The black dries flat and even and it’s dark. like really dark! I had a feeling it was going to be a good one and I’m not disappointed. What’s not to like?
