Black ink, very water resistant
X-Feather is a shockingly black, while this is a black easier on the eyes, almost a magic marker black, which does shade with greyish tones that don't tend to blue or green, though... view morethere is a mix of that, almost a perfect grey, but it takes a lot of dryness to get it that grey. This ink is not gel like, but still glides nice under the nib, and is non-feathering on card stock or cheap paper. (2019-2020 batch). This color of black is almost a construction paper black that reminds me of making witch hats for halloween in school. Put on thick, it can be as vibrant as x-feather, but looks its best when put a bit dry. Of the inks I have tested for water resistance, only Noodler's 54th Massachusettes, and Baystate Blue have reached 100% water proofness. This is close, at 99%. It lost 1% because like X-feather, instead of leaking off ink when wet, it can flake off in the water when rubbed, which is odd, almost like it is a paint and not an ink. But, under normal circumstances, this ink can probably survive a couple of weeks in the river and still be readable when taken out. I would say that for long writing times, inks that are easier on the eyes are more appealing, and this is one of those, if put in an italic nib that is somewhat moderate in flow, or any pen of the same flow rate. A great ink for writing! view less

Best black
The best black ink I've used. Excellently behaved, stubbornly permanent, great flow, easy cleaning. I use it in many vintage pens without hesitation. Yes, some Noodler's inks are i... view morenconsistent. Their black, though, I've found to be true through the many 3-ounce bottles I've used. The only drawback is long dry times; this ink is best for more absorbent papers, making it perfect for workplace settings, which is where I use it. view less

Really rich black! Lays down nice and wet. Blacker than night Stands out great on the page. Dipped my Esterbrook J with fine nib in it to test Now I need to try it with an EF.

Works just as Promised!
I loaded my first ever Noodler's Black into a shiny new TWSBI Vac Mini (M). Worked perfectly in my less-FP-friendly-than-I-would-like 1917 Bullet Journal, with almost no ghosting a... view morend not a bit of bleeding through. Same on Rhodia paper. More important, it wrote perfectly on cheap Office Depot yellow pad paper. Again no bleeding and minimal ghosting. And just for the fun of it, I ran the yellowpad page and the Rhodia page under the kitchen sink. The other colors (from various brands) on those pages had various levels of washing away -- some almost gone with just a little water. Bulletproof Black shrugged the water off completely - no wash-away or other damage to the writing. I am a fan! view less
