    I love Wild Strawberry! I've been using it a lot. So vibrant. From the chromatography it seems I like the pink it contains.

    I've been meaning to do something like this for a while! I still have trouble telling the difference between them both lol. Definitely going to have to do a chromatography comparison, that was really interesting. Thanks so much for the showdown, very informative!

    Hello, where did you get such a dip pen outfitted with fountain pen nib with plastic "feed" ribbing? Or how did you make one?

      This is a Serendipity dip pen mand by James Fenriss.
      Unfortunately he is no longer making them.

    If you have a lot of red inks, perhaps you could do an overview? It would make it easier to see the difference between them.
    BTW, thanks for another great video, Gary.

      Thanks. That's a really good idea. I have added it to the list of videos to make in 2023

    I like the shade of the Wild Strawberry a lot, but the dry time is very long. I think I will stay with Oxblood. I am considering buying a bottle of Writers Blood as it has been recommended by a lot of reviewers. Do you have it? How is the dry time?

      I like Writers Blood, its got som really nice shades in it.
      I do find it to be quite a wet ink, takes a lot longer to dry than Oxblood.
      I've added to make a comparison between the two, but may not be until mid next year so I can use them both in the same pen. I've got the perfect pen in mind, but it currently has Diamine Syrah in it.

    Could you do a video like this comparing Diamine 'Royal Blue' and 'Sapphire Blue'. I find it amusing that the colors on the labels of those two inks are essentially swapped in terms of what they say they look like vs what they *really* look like.

      Thanks. I've added it to my list for the future. I'll need a couple fo months so I can use them both in the same pen - I have a pen in mind for these.
