Cosmic Black is a well-performing ink. Depending on your nib/feed and paper, the ink flow is average to wet--it is not an ink I would characterize as dry. Even when wet, though, it lays down a well-controlled line of ink. That is, it will not cause a normal EF/F to lay down B-width line of ink. The saturation on the ink is just right. It is not a dark grey or faded black; it does not look desaturated when it dries. It is a dark, black ink--an ink that I like much more than I expected.
