Sailor
I am not sure when my yellow Sailor 1911M Colors fountain pen will be arriving...this week or next.
I *was* going to ink it with Pelikan Brilliant Brown bottled ink, but then I remembered I already have Sailor Jentle Blue-Black cartridges and a bottle of Sailor Jentle Red-Brown.
I sometimes like to use the same brand ink as the pen. This is an always thing with my brother's Parker '51' pen: it *always* gets Parker Quink Washable Blue ink. It doesn't seem happy with any other ink.
Just to make my new pen feel happy and welcome, I ordered a couple more bottles of Sailor Jentle ink: green and brown. Also some black cartridges and some blue cartridges. I am foregoing the gray ink, the yellow-orange, and the red cartridges...although the gray may be something I'd like in the future.
