5.0 out of 5 stars A nice, dark, opaque, black ink; not for writing checks, December 30, 2006

This is the same as Pelikan 4001 Black or Brilliant Black. It dries to a nice, dark, opaque black color. It is not very water resistant. It is not safe for writing checks. It feels good during writing. It is popular with fountain pen enthusiasts.

4.0 out of 5 stars writing becomes a pleasure, April 29, 2007

As a frequent note-writer, I recently made the leap to the fountain pen by buying two Cross pens, a couple of sets of the ink refills here under review, and a Mont Blanc ink fountain.

Although I've already grown to enjoy 'dipping', there are times when the pen refill is the way to go; while traveling, for example.

These plastic refills slip into place without complication and become 'holed' as they do. After that, you simply begin writing. A steady but controlled stream of high-quality ink makes the rest a breeze.

People accustomed to a ballpoint pen may be surprised--as I was--by the short lifespan of these refills. I suspect you simply lay down a lot more ink with a fountain pen than with a ballpoint. No matter, it's worth it.

I bought a cross pen, and when I ran out of refills, I went to a local store that sold cross. They told me that I could use another brand of ink and everything would be just fine. Well, it wasn't. It was of the wrong consistency and my pen ran and ran. So, I finally found these and my pen is right as rain now.
