KY Series Sumi Ink from Yasutomo

From Yasutomo (in black rectangular bottle). This Japanese sumi is a dense black, quick-drying, matte finish. Does not corrode nibs. Became the new favorite of one of our copperplate customers when Ziller inks were being developed and unavailable after an envelope job easily survived major rain. Tests prove this ink waterproof and unaffected by alcohol. All but the 2 oz. bottles have dispenser caps.
