Ink Review #2168: Dominant Industry Winter Wood

Let’s take a look at Dominant Industry Winter Wood. Thanks to Yoseka Stationery for sending this ink over for review.

The color:

Winter Wood is a deep coal brown.

*For my swab cards I use a Col-o-ring by Skylab Letterpress, a medium Pilot Ishime and a Mabie Todd Swan.

Swabs:

In large swabs on Tomoe River paper the ink looks more black than brown.

Writing samples:

Let's take a look at how the ink behaves on fountain pen friendly papers: Rhodia, Tomoe River, and Leuchtturm.

*For my writing samples I use:

Dry time: 30 seconds

Water resistance: Medium

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

Other properties: low shading, low black sheen, and no shimmer.

On 20 lb copy paper the ink had just a little bit of feathering and some bleeding.

Comparison Swabs:

Winter Wood is closest to Kobe 03. Click here to see the brown inks together.

Longer Writing:

I used a Pelikan M800 Renaissance Brown with a medium nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink had an average flow.

Overall, this is a nice brown ink. It’s dark enough that it’s almost black on some papers which makes it office appropriate.
