What we liked
- + Made specifically for dip pens, so flow suits pointed and broad nibs
- + Traditional recipe darkens on paper for an authentic historical look
- + Great fit for Spencerian, copperplate and period document replicas
Trade-offs
- - Historic iron gall can be harsh on steel nibs without prompt cleaning
- - One ounce bottle is small for someone lettering every day
