I bought the Columbia Blue as a present and traded with my friend for a small portion of the ink.
The gold particles CAN clog the pen and I would have loved to pour it back into the bottle to clean the pen once or twice, but a little bit of shaking dislodged it. I definitely wouldn't recommend it for fine nibs. It works and looks great with my normal M, though.
I'm not a blue connaisseur, but the dark blue with the gold inlets looks very beautiful to me. Yes, the contrast would be stronger with a darker shade, but I don't like writing with darker tones. Columbia Blue was the perfect compromise.
It's definitely one of the more fabulous ones and reminded me a bit of being a teenager writing with glitter gel pens. Maybe you shouldn't use it for business paperwork, but I like the little bits of sparkly glitter on my daily notes.
