FPR Indus ultra flex with Parker Quink Blue Black. Crusty video from a while ago. Just writing random words. Practising early 20th century business penmanship.

<gasp!> TIL, Parker Quink Blue Black is still being made! I thought they stopped making it because I couldn't find it anymore. Nobody had seen any in a while (this was pre-Internet). So I moved onto Supershow Blue. Looks like it's time to pick up a bottle of Quink!

Oh, your penmanship is beautiful too! Thanks for sharing.

Quink (I spelled it wrong, thanks) is a cheap ink. And I mean that in a good way. Most other bottled ink is slightly to significantly more expensive per milliliter. And it performs reasonably well. Not my favorite by any means but a good workhorse ink to get some work done. Also supposedly gentle with vintage pens I have heard.
