Ink test day! Today’s highlighted ink is from our neighbors to the north – it’s Ferris Wheel Press Stroke of Midnight, a shimmering blue ink. I’ll share its performance on several different papers, dry times, chromatography, water-fastness, and swatches.

![Instant Favorite? The New Asvine C80 (Galaxy Blue! Size 8 Nib!)
In this video, we dive into a full review of Asvines new C80, a stunning turned-resin fountain pen that might just be an instant favorite. Featuring a Size 8 nib and a beautiful Galaxy Blue acrylic body, this pen offers a writing experience that rivals much more expensive options.
We’ll explore the C80s design, test its writing performance, and compare it to other notable models like the Wing Sung 630 and Hongdian A9. Watch to find out if this cartridge/converter pen is the right addition to your collection (and hear about the one smelly quirk you might encounter when unboxing!).
