Yellow pen, black ink

More than 10 years after the first incident, I had my 2nd impulsive purchase for a fountain pen. This time, a Retro 51 Scriptmaster in Citron.

What can I say? I always wanted a yellow pen and the cellulose acetate used for this pen is so lovely. FPH has it on sale, and it certainly didn't help that Ann kept egging me on. :)

Since I'm ordering from FPH this time, I took the chance to get a bottle of Noodler's Old Manhattan Blackest Black (a FPH exclusive). I am quite please with the ink, the color certainly is the darkest black I have tried so far, and the water resistance is very good, just as advertised.
