Default Inks for Left Handers

I have purchased a Pelikan nibbed pen as a Christmas present for my left
handed brother. I had it fitted with a medium oblique nib. Does anyone in
the group have any relevant experience that might point to a particular ink
as having properties more suited to left handed application? Drying time,
resistance to smearing, etc.

Thanks

VG

Chuck Swisher sells inks, made exclusively for him by Nathan Tartif
(Scaupaug) of Noodler's inks, specifically for left handers because they
dry very fast. I bought one, even though I'm not a lefty, because I
like the idea of a fast dry time. He has about 8 colors. It is a
pretty nice ink.

Wow! I wonder if the "Midnight Black (for lefties)" has the same remarkable
permanence and blackness as the regular Noodler's black....

It's blacker, but not permanent.
