deep black. - Ink

This is my illustration ink. It delivers pure, rich black. perfect for technical pen or brush. The bottle has a precise spout that makes it easy to fill my pens or paint.

Pros
  • Ink rubs off drawing foil
Cons
  • Big and bulky

Excellent waterproof ink for technical pens

I have used this ink in my Koh-I-Noor Rapidograph technical pens for many years. never a problem However, if you're looking for permanent ink for fountain pens, this ink will *clog* them (trust me, I've tried it on several pens). If you need permanent fountain pen ink, only two of these work well (for me): Platinum Carbon Black or Daler-Rowney Calli. Koh-I-Noor Universal works well with tech pens and can also be used to refill Sakura Pigma Microns and other "disposable" tech pens.

Pros
  • Extremely versatile quick drying ink
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

Great product, poor packaging by Revain (not the seller)

I've been using Koh-i-Noor Rapidograph pens for technical writing Paper since 1973. At larger point sizes (1 and up) I don't see much of a difference between Koh-I-Noor and other ink brands I've tried (Pelikan, Staedtler, Higgins, etc.). .) But when I use thinner nibs (00 to 4x0) I found this ink to be the best. It stays dark black (not washed out grey) and flows nicely. I have been using 3060 and 3080 inks for over three decades and see no reason to use anything else in my application. Hence…

Pros
  • Use on paper, vellum, drafting film and tracing paper
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
