It feels more like a natural progression from the lighter to darker tones. With Kiri-Same it sometimes feels like you leap from a light grey to an almost grey black.<\/p>\n<p>This ink drys pretty much instantly which as much as that is a great feature, I almost wonder if this is actually more of a negative? What I mean by this is that I actually found that I had a few dry starts if I hadn\u2019t used my Mont Blanc 145 for a small period of time. I think I need to use this ink in a few more pens to see if this is the general case or is just a one off.<\/p>\n<p>Otherwise, this is a fantastic ink that will be part of my daily carry.<\/p>\n<div
