OVERALL

Kaweco's Midnight Blue or Blue-Black ink, which it is more commonly known as, is a really nice blue-black colour. It has great shading and decent behaviour, although it looks best in a broad nib. Looking past the price of the bottle, the cartridges aren't too bad, they're convenient, and the colour is really nice and very appropriate for many situations - business and pleasure.

I received this ink free of charge for the purposes of this review. I was not compensated monetarily for my review. Everything you've read here is my own opinion.

And just like that I suddenly want a blue-black ink. My local store sells the cartridges so I might give those a go. Thanks Azizah :)
