It is well-behaved on bad paper, although Sheaffer Skrip Blue (newer formula from Slovenia) is better for two-sided writing on bad paper

I have not yet tested it's permanency, but it writes well and does not bleed through even cheap paper unless applied to thick

It is a washable ink, that is fast drying and reasonable on poorer paper

I've tried this ink on regular notebook paper, slightly rougher brown paper, kraft-style brown wrapping paper, and a page from an inexpensive pencil sketch pad; in every case there has been no appreciable bleeding or blurring of lines, and (except for one spot where the fountain pen leaked) no appreciable bleed-through

It is well-behaved on bad paper

I use cheap paper, and don't like expensive fountain pens

However, one thing to note is that this blue tinge only is obvious on warm-colored off-white paper (creamy like Moleskine)

This is a must for fountain and dip pens with modern recycled paper as all other inks will bleed and feather.

I usually write on good thick paper and don't write that much, so bleeding through is not an issue and the ink dries quickly enough to avoid smudges.

This is of course not permanent (the bottle says washable) and it does bleed through cheap paper a bit although not as bad as most blue inks I have used (like Waterman).

It does not feather except on the cheapest papers on which any other ink would do the same

Parker dries quickly; I don't have to worry about accidentally touching the paper and smearing my previously written words

It is quick drying and behaves well, even on cheap notebook paper.

My experience has been that all blue inks bleed through cheap paper.

It looks watery while writing, and bleeds and feathers like mad on all but the most expensive paper

It is a good, basic black with no notable undertones of other colors noticeable on decent paper.

I love how it helps my pen glide even smoother and it will not run or trespass to the other side of any paper, cheap or expensive

Doesn't feather on most cheap paper, acceptable dry-time, and very little bleed.

it has noticeably less feathering and less bleed-through than other inks, meaning this is a good ink for using on cheap paper.

It is a nice blue color, cleans up easily and writes a medium wet line with no bleed through or shadowing if used with fountain pen-friendly paper.

Using it on cheap paper (Field Notes

With a fine nib, it doesn't bleed through even cheap notepad paper

It is fairly well-behaved on bad paper

Using the more expensive paper is no guarantee of improved performance, though

Slightly dry flow, but that's a good thing when you write on crappy paper

It is well-behaved on bad paper.

Makes a good practical ink if you are using cheap paper.

The first paper I wrote a sample on was cheap, warm-toned journal paper, and the second sample I wrote was on higher quality paper (not made for fountain pens, but still, sketch/drawing paper)

For one, it barely feathers even on cheap loose leaf paper, so I wouldn't have to worry about finding a good paper to write with this ink

Make sure to use the good quality paper, otherwise it spreads out and writing looks hideous

When it's used on smoother paper like Rhodia's papers, it dries up to a matte-looking finish.

Does what it is need to do stain the paper with the letter I make

The black lays nicely and works well on copy paper as well as higher end paper such as Rhodia and tomoe.

This ink wasn't nearly dark enough, but at the very least I plan to keep it handy when writing on cheap paper so I don't have to worry about bleeding or feathering

We use cheap paper at work

I tried the ink on one of my bright white sketch papers, and it looked excellent, very pigmented and undeniably black

For one, it barely feathers even on cheap loose leaf paper, so I wouldn't have to worry about finding a good paper to write with this ink

With a good medium nib you get a very bold, strong line that handles all different papers well

Likewise, I found that even on cheap paper it did not bleed through to the back

Very P!eased with every aspect of purchase.

Dries very quickly but not as dark as I would like.

The pen scratched more as if there wasn't a good flow of ink.

I use this with my Jinhao X450, and Bulow X750 pens, as well as with my dip pen

I personally love this feeling, as it allows more artistic expression when using the Parallel Pens

I use it to write on regular college ruled paper as well as in notebooks for taking class notes

the packaging wasnt as pretty as in the picture but its the same thing

I immediately installed it in my fountain pen and it works as it is supposed to.

great as always

Looks like blue ink, works as it should, no issues.

Very P!eased with every aspect of purchase.
