Pilot Namiki IC100 Fountain Pen Ink Cartridges - Blue/Black (Pack of 2)

This is my go-to workhorse ink for work. I’ve used a wide range of fountain pen inks from brands like Montblanc, Iroshizuku, J. Herbin, Waterman, and Noodler’s, and I keep coming back to Pilot Blue Black. It hits a really nice sweet spot when it comes to flow, permanence, and ease of maintenance—three things that matter a lot when you’re writing regularly in a professional setting. The color itself is a deep, dark blue that maintains a classic, understated look while still offering just enough richness to give your writing some character. It’s not flashy or whimsical, which makes it ideal for office use—especially in more conservative or traditional environments where a bright or unusual ink color might come off as unprofessional. In short, Pilot Blue Black is a perfect ink for anyone who needs something reliable, legible, and appropriate for formal work documents or notes. It has presence without drawing too much attention, and it performs consistently across different nibs and paper types. If you're looking for a professional, no-nonsense ink that still has a bit of personality, this is the one. Photo- PBB has a nice sheen to it, on Tomoe RIver paper. Cheers!

They work absolutely perfect, the ink is good quality and fitted the pen I bought!

These are a staple for my fountain pen collection. I love the color because it is not fully black, but a very very dark blue, giving a unique hue. These are so simple to use, just popping in and out if I do not feel like using the ink converter. The do tend to run out rather quickly depending on the nib size you use and without showing signs they are getting low, recommend having a backup with you.

Been using this ink for my fountain pen ink journal with, excellent product and in many colors. Excellent Seller Thankyou

Good price for a pack of two. The design of the box is different from the one in the description, but the cartridges are the same. These should last for a while. The color is very juicy dark blue. Initially, I thought there were two types in each box: blue and black. I didn't read the listing thoroughly and the header is a little confusing. Other than that it is all good.

Smooth writing, dries quickly.

I adore my three Pilot Metropolitan fountain pens, and these are the only cartridges that fit them. It's irksome that Pilot made these pens unable to take the standard international cartridges, and these seem to last just a tad less long. Fortunately the ink in them is top notch, and they are easy to change. No leaking, good balance between 'wet' and 'dry'. I like this black/blue color, which seems to make the blue appear more sophisticated. Would buy again.

its Pilot ink, writes well and dries fast, I really like this blue/black color not glaring blue but just a nice gentle easy to read color.

Product was delivered fast Was as described and works for pilot pens Color and flow is excellent

Livraison avant la date prévue mais erreur de couleur d'encre à la réception....vendeur très réactif, message traité dans l'heure un vendredi soir à 21h et relivraison du bon produit très rapide sans retour des mauvaises cartouches. Très commerçant et super réactif, je recommande.

Estos cartuchos sirven sólo para plumas de la marca Pilot. Yo los uso en una pluma modelo Vanishing Point, que me acompaña todo el día. Con ellos la pluma empieza a escribir de inmediato, el plumín no se seca. El color de la tinta me parece adecuado para todo tipo de notas o firmas.

Parfait pour ma plume

High quality
