Ink Review #383: Tono & Lims GN Type-E — Fountain Pen Pharmacist

Today I will review the last of the Tono & Lims GN inks. GN Type-E is a royal blue with red sheen.

Swabs:

This ink had no shading and low red sheen. It comes with a packet of pink shimmer. The color is a rich blue similar to Diamine Sargasso Sea.

Dry Time/Water Resistance:

This ink had an average dry time of 25 seconds and no water resistance.

Writing Sample:

I found this ink to have an average/dry flow. I liked the accent of red sheen but found that the shimmer was barely perceptible.

Overall: I was a bit let down with this do-it-yourself shimmer series. The powder did not pack a punch. GN-Type E is my favorite out of the trio as it is a deeper blue with a bit of red sheen.
