This bottle of Delta black ink was provided to the first 200 D.C. Pen Show attendees on Saturday and Sunday. I had never tried Delta Ink before, and I've been pleasantly surprised by its performance. I would compare the Delta to Aurora in terms of smoothness and flow, but it doesn't have the deep black color that the Aurora does. In terms of color, I would compare this ink to Lamy black, in the sense that it has almost purplish undertones. It's a pretty ink, with some character. It dries very quickly and I found that it works well on my cheap work paper. I'm not sure that I would buy another bottle after I use this one up but I'm definitely going to continue with this ink in the rotation from time to time. The small bottle is approximately 30ml and fits nicely in my briefcase, so it's a good fallback to have if I'm on the road and need to refill.

That's all from me today. Since it's Labor Day, I'm off work so I'm going to take advantage with a short post. See everyone Wednesday!
