Oh nice inks! Ostrich is a really nice Chinese Ink manufacturer with a long history, they were founded in 1935 and make really nice inks, including iron gall and pigment inks as well. Great reputation in China, not so well known outside.
That "Jinghao" is just jinhao ink. Pretty nice ink!
Ahh thanks, I figured it was the same
Usually I see people putting iroshizuku and J Herbin inks in Jinhaos. What a fun twist to see dollar ink bottles in pens I'll never afford 😅
Nice to see some ink from off the beaten path. I don't think I have ever seen much on the Chinese inks. I picked up the entire Karkos line a few months ago for $0.53 USD/each and like $9 in total shipping. So, it came to like $13.50 USD for 10 bottles of ink. Couldn't pass it up. I also liked the Violet but the true gem of the bunch was the Brown.
Good stuff. I've been looking for a good blue so I know of what you speak.😁
As far as paper, I found "Paperage" on Amazon. 100gsm and even with a quetip swab, no bleedthrough and very little shadowing. Price is spot on for pages per journal. I was impressed enough to buy 3 more of them. ----just an 'add it to the list' comment. 😄
I'm really enjoying the channel, especially with your approach AND your delivery which isn't boring. Keep em' coming!
I dont know what you are talking about but your handwriting is beautiful.
LOL thanks
for those diamine ink bottles with the opening being too small to get into... I got for little money on ebay the "Fountain Pen Spring Ink Auxiliary Absorber Syringe For Converter" Now I can get all the ink out no problems !!
Yeah I have a springy plunger syringe type thing and also an adapter that goes onto the end of a converter. But if its a vac or piston pen, no way to get it down into the bottle
It's really amazing to find some good inks that cost less, some just click and work great. Great video again.
The blue ink is not coming from jinhao, indeed from Yuyi (memory fish). There is a logo (in chineses character) on the top of the bottle.
I buy and use inks for 1-2$ per 70 ml bottle, price depends on seller. Russian "Raduga-2" by Gamma ("Rainbow-2" by Gamma). Use mostly "Bright Blue" and sometimes "Black". They've got a bit more colors (violet, red, green) but haven't used them yet because I returned to fountain pens just a month ago (haven't been using for kinda 20-30 years after some time in school which was not much).
I might have to go shopping on Aliexpress, those are good finds. And I love Cosmo Air Light paper, I’m currently using a book of it from Odyssey Notebooks. It’s such a bummer that it’s being discontinued.
Oh I didn't know its being discontinued! :(
@@Doodlebud yes! Very sad. But Odyssey Notebooks are still selling 300 page notebooks of it. I'm gonna stock up.
JingHao could be translated as Good Book - Jing being book and Hao being good. Bu Hao is bad/good - meaning not good. Hao hao being real good. Hard stuff to crack. Sadly it is the simplified radical lán - for blue. 藍 (Traditional form of 蓝)
Very nice that amethyst purple was a really nice plum color...I love that...wish the bottle was bigger. But yeah its fun to try new papers and inks. Im excited for 2023
Always fun to have a new find
I like the way the inks come across on Cosmo Air Light but it's so sensitive to hand oils! Everytime I touch it, I get those spots just as you did too. Otherwise, the Regalia paper was my favorite for the new inks. Happy New Year!
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing your findings with us!
My pleasure
Haha! The beginning " jiggle " must be your trademark DB!
It jiggles just like my belly!
Your writing is really good!
Thanks 😅
Really great video. Thank you. RS. Canada
Happy New Year! I hope that you and your family have a great one.
Thank you for the video footage of that pen shop. It must be a great place to visit to purchase materials or just be able to speak with other fountain pen enthusiasts. Were those new inks easy to flush out of your fountain pens? Take care, and I hope that the new year is treating you well.
Yup so issues as of yet when it comes to cleaning out a pen
You should review majohn inks they are really so nice
Didn't know they made any. I had this package arrive of some random inks I ordered on Aliexpress and have to try those out soon
Very fun video. Regalia paper is wonderful. Wish they offered in an A4 notebook . Tomoe River, I was very late to try. It is wonderful too. Rhodia seems light years away from Clairefontaine
I thought that Jinghao blue looked pretty similar to Horizon blue. I got a bottle in a pen boutique mystery box for Christmas and it's quickly become my favourite ink. I'm starting to find the many royal blue inks to be a bit bland, and it has just the right amount of pop to the colour without being too bright.
How fun!
Yeah, blame it on the kids 🤺, but I really like the color of the blue ink. Thanks a lot!
Try Noodler's Blue (just blue) - Very close to Horizon blue. (or Diamine Blue Velvet). Loved Horizon blue, but I am 2 for 2 on Monteverde inks molding.
Yeah I've had the odd mold incident with their inks as well
Nice inks 😍
It'd be interesting to see what the PH is on these. I've never tried these before in case they damaged my pens.
pH is only one parameter to think of when it comes to ink. I chatted about it briefly in this video but I have a whole bunch of testing I do want to run at some point.

@@Doodlebud Thanks. Great info as usual.
Where do you get the Muji paper that is your favourite? I’d love to try it as I tend to agree with all your picks and I’m not sure where to find the right paper to try your Muji pick. (I’m in Ontario)
I just got to the Muji store. I'm lucky to have two of them very close by. If you don't have one nearby, you can order online as well.
Great fun video. Was there any bleed through on the Regalia paper?? Please let me know. There used to be a Muji shop in London’s Oxford Street. I’ll check it out if I head up West. Fingers crossed it’s still there. Thanks again for a great video. Happy New Year. Catch ya next time. D
Here's a bunch of testing I did with the regalia paper when I first got it:

Fun? Fun? FUNNN?!?!!? 😱 Fountain pens are not supposed to be fun! This is serious. I will apply to the Grand Master of the Great Lodge of Fountaineers to have your membership revoked.
Tell the Grand Poobah to pay me a visit. I'll have my Sheaffer PFM loaded with Baystate Blue and will "accidently" unload the snorkel on his shirt 😁
🤡
"Ah-mee-thist" - is this a joke i'm too new to the channel to understand? i've always pronounced amethyst "am-a-thist" and everyone i know does too. Could it be a regional thing?
That glass bottle the blue ink, seems like a Tramol ink bottle to me.
where did you buy your regalia?
I have a terrible experience with endless (35$ wasted :|) but I'm curious to try that paper! is it white or cream?
also if you like blues, have you tried belu ocean from j herbin? so expensive but I want a bottle so bad... it's so gorgeous.... specially in a broad nib, something so unique about that blue
and also the VPS night was soooo amazing I absolutely loved it :)
I was sent the regalia directly by endless. What went wrong with your experience with them? I know the Canadian retailer Blesket (use DOODLEBUD22 for 10%) carries their product line as well.
@@Doodlebud
I got their tomoe river notebooks. The grid dots were weird and not aligned on some pages and there was black dots all over the page. It had a very rough texture and didn't like some inks, basically nothing like actual tomoe river. I contacted them and they said that they accidentally sent me a prototype and asked for my mailing address to send a replacement 2-3 months ago then proceeded to ghost me! I've followed up twice but I guess it isn't worth the 30$~ I spent on the notebook at this point
And oooh thanks for the code! I'm on pen probation as I blew a bit of my savings on 3 expensive pens on sale... But I can afford one next month and I'll probably do a 100$ order for the free shipping with this ^~^
A-me-this??? Really?? Come on DB, It’s am-A-This-t like the stone!!!
I couldn't tell if that was a Canadian thing or if it was April 1st already... lol
Came here to say the same thing.
As an Atlantic Canadian, I've always understood that it's Ah-muh-thist, not Ah-MEEEE-thist.
Little question. The papers you liked more seem to be pretty expensive. Would it maybe be possible to review relatively cheap papers for us broke blokes that are decent for fountain pens
Lately I've been hearing lots of good things about CVS paper notebooks, specifically the Made In Vietnam paper. Less expensive.
@@ichirofakename is it possible to get that in Europe by any chance?
@@kozygeorg Maybe not. CVS is a huge chain of drugstores across the USA, which I assume is absent from Europe (?). I heard that the paper can be bought online, but fear the price savings would disappear in the cost of shipping. Sorry.
is Clarefountaine cheaper since it's made in France?
Here is a video I did about some Muji paper which is pretty low cost. They have a 5 pack of reasonably ok paper that I use for like $4!

1. I wear gloves when using Cosmo Air paper.
2. No Baystate Blue? What, are you crazy?
Wow gloves! I guess thats ok when you're at home but I might get some odd looks if I'm in a coffee shop LOL.
No BSB yet.... slowly working up the nerve to get a bottle
Can you believe that a large, Pennsylvania county (Delaware County) does not have a single 'Pen' shop or Stationery store? Closest one is in the state of Delaware. Not even Philadelphia. I guess we are not that sophisticated in PA. Covid closed the only one I knew about in Ardmore PA.
Oh wow guess you have to do most of your shopping online
@@Doodlebud Most? All. Goulet and JetPens.
I haven’t try the Jinghao blue yet, but got the black as well and it feels dry, it takes 20-30 sec to dry on paper and tend to dry on the tip of the fountain pen. The black is carbon black, very black. Did you have the same experience with the blue one?
BOOM
BAM
I'm probably very late to this, but which Muji variant was the spiral-bound version? I usually write with an OB (it's just what my handwriting seems to like 🤷♂️) and the Muji 5 Pack notebook set hasn't worked for me too well. Even with my fine Waterman Allure, it bleeds...
Where do you buy the muji paper?
At the Muji store. They also have a website
This is the Jinaho Deep Blue ? TY
Have tried noodles blue eel? Is it safe for pens
"Eel" just means it's lubricated for wetter flow. I've used lots of Black Eel and has never caused a problem. I don't see how blue would be any different. Might avoid Baystate though, obviously.
Haven't tried those ones yet. I only have Noodlers Black and Apache Sunset so far
You mis-pronounced "Amethyst"! Short "e" and the accent is on the first syllable!
'jinghao' is not a real brand, it's an attempt to fool people into thinking it's the real Jinhao
Thanks Doodlebud!
There’s a sea of pretty decent ink at amazing prices ($2-3 USD/bottle) on Taobao, but I’m not sure if they ship to the States.
I will always envy those that have easy access to Taobao 😢
