Today we will be reviewing PenBBS #524. I enjoy their naming system as it makes things easier on my end!

This ink had no shading and medium sheen. The color leans on the black end of blue-black inks, with a hint of blue (if you stare at it for some time).

I found this ink to have a wet flow. I did have some skips when my Lamy was uncapped for more than a few seconds. The color is adequate in a professional setting.

Overall: I would recommend this ink if you are looking for a stealthy blue-black ink. I prefer bluer blacks, so I will not be purchasing a bottle.
