This ink had medium shading and no sheen. It is a true navy without any apparent undertones.

This ink had quite a long dry time, over 60 seconds, and no water resistance.

I liked this color a lot—it’s a great standard blue. It had an average flow.

Overall: This might be one of my favorite Tono & Lim inks. It is a typical navy with some shading. It does have a long dry time so it may not be the best ink for note-taking.
