Parker Quink Permanent Blue-Black is a classic, well-behaved fountain pen ink known for its medium blue-teal color with subtle low shading and occasional pink sheen, despite the 'blue-black' name. It's reliable for daily writing with average flow, quick drying, and minimal feathering on good paper, though water resistance is low despite its 'permanent' label. Ideal for vintage pen users and those seeking an affordable, ubiquitous workhorse ink.
