Ink Review #2559: Endless Alchemy Wizard's Pencil
/Endless Alchemy Ink is a new-to-me ink brand, so let’s take a look at Endless Alchemy Wizard’s Pencil. You can find this ink for sale at most retailers including Vanness Pens.
*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 has some black sheen.
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:
Vintage Mabie Todd Swan (flex nib)
Taroko Enigma notebooks (68gsm TR)
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 some feathering and bleeding in the larger nib sizes.
Comparison Swabs:
Wizard’s Pencil has a little more of a green undertone than these other grey inks. Click here to see the grey inks together.
Longer Writing:
I used a Pelikan M205 Moonstone with a fine nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink has an average flow.
Overall, this is a lovely grey ink with an average flow. It’s well-behaved and comes in a cool bottle (I only have a sample so unfortunately I can’t show you the bottle but there’s pictures of it on Vanness’s website).
