Good ink, slow drying
The color is beautiful, but if you are a left-handed writer, be careful. It takes a bit longer to dry than some synthetic blacks, leading to occasional smudges.

Great value for money
For the price, you get a generous amount of ink. The color is a deep navy that shifts to black in certain lights. It took a few seconds to dry on cheaper paper, but works great on notebook paper.

Perfect for journaling
I love the subtle variation in shading this ink provides. It makes my handwriting look more dynamic. The bottle design is simple but functional and easy to fill.

Smooth and reliable
I have used Hero ink for years. This batch is consistent with previous ones. No clogging issues in my vintage pens, and the color is sophisticated for office use.

Classic color for daily writing
This blue-black ink is exactly what I was looking for. It has a professional look that isn't as harsh as pure black but is still very legible. The flow in my Hero pen is perfect.

Solid everyday ink
Nothing fancy, just a solid, dependable blue-black ink. It writes wet without being sloppy. I deducted one star only because the cap can be a bit tight to open sometimes.
Q: Is this ink waterproof?
A: This is a dye-based ink, so it has limited water resistance. If exposed to water, the writing will likely smear or fade. For archival purposes requiring high water resistance, a pigment-based ink would be more suitable.
Q: Does this ink contain carbon particles?
A: No, the product description specifies that this is a non-carbon ink. It is dye-based, which means it flows smoothly and is less likely to clog pens compared to carbon or pigment inks.
Q: Is this ink safe to use in a Lamy Safari fountain pen?
A: Yes, this is a standard dye-based fountain pen ink and is safe to use in any fountain pen that accepts bottled ink, including the Lamy Safari.
Q: How long does the 60ml bottle typically last?
A: Usage varies by writer, but for an average daily user filling a standard converter every few days, a 60ml bottle can last anywhere from 3 to 6 months.
Q: Can I mix this with other blue inks to create a custom shade?
A: While technically possible, we do not recommend mixing different brands or formulations of ink as it may cause chemical reactions, sedimentation, or clogging in your pen. It is best to use this ink on its own.
