Rohrer & Klingner Scabiosa Review
This ink is my new EDC, and will most likely find permanent home in my Kaweco Sport classic because of that. I really love it, and I can't find an issue with it at all. I suggest you go and get a bottle immediately

Scribes' Red Review
Thanks to Amberleadavis over on FPN for making this possible.
Just so everyone knows, this ink is still in a "beta" phase and some of the kinks are still being worked. I was lucky enough to be able to get a bottle for testing before the final product is released. Here are my thoughts

Kaweco Sport Classic BB Review
I have already review the body of the sport classic, and you can find that here. Now onto this BB nib!
So I was really excited about getting into some special nibs, and straying the norm of medium and fine (which is all I had used before the Kaweco shipment). This nib is not what I was expecting. It is not a very wide line at all, it is just slightly larger than medium sport that is my EDC. I feel like this is mainly contributed by how dry this pen is. It barely puts down any ink at all, which is the opposite of what a BB should do. Because of that there is hard start issues, they aren't bad at all, but they are there. The nib has some flow issues, but it extremely smooth. This makes me feel like it has a case of "babies bottoms" (essentially over polishing the nib obstructing flow). If this pen was a wetter, I would most likely be in love. Oh well, can always send it off to get it wetter! I'll give it a 5/10 but if it was wetter I would say 8/10 easily. Here are the pictures!

Kaweco Ruby Red Review
Since I am a student I am not much for red inks. Teachers usually don't like it when you use the color they use to mark up test. But I really like this red ink. The best thing to relate it to is a lipstick; not blood-red, but a pink that had enough red in it to be called red. I really like it, and love how wet it is in my Jinaho. Definitely would suggest it to someone who likes a bright red ink. Pics are up next!
