Sailor Jentle Apricot ink review

#Sailor #ink #review #orange

As per my ink sample survey, I present you with the second ink you voted for: Sailor Jentle Apricot.

2nd Jetpens haul

#Sailor #fountain-pen #JetPens #Pilot

My second Jetpens haul was a smaller one. This one also happened at the end of last year but I only got the chance to blog about it now. First there's a Pilot Parallel calligraphy pen, with a 2.4mm nib. The Parallel is a very interesting pen with an unique nib design. The tines are actually two...
