Ink Review #2394: Robert Oster Faith

Robert Oster Faith is a Vitstyle Exclusive! Thanks to Vitstyle for sending this ink over for review!

The color:

Faith is a turquoise blue with shimmer.

*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 plenty of shimmer.

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: Low

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

Other properties: medium shading, no sheen, and silver shimmer.

On 20 lb copy paper the ink had some feathering and bleeding in the larger nib sizes.

Comparison Swabs:

Faith is a little less green than Diamine Blue Lightning. Click here to see the blue inks together.

Longer Writing:

I used a Leonardo Momento Zero Hawaii with a medium nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink has an average flow.

Overall, I really enjoyed this ink. It’s a gorgeous blue with plenty of shimmer and I didn’t have any clogging problems.
