Customer Reviews

Had a problem with our original bottle (Blue Ghost, so it was immediately apparent there were floaters in the bottle), but Pen Chalet quickly and kindly replaced it for us! Noodlers inks are usually great, so it was a bit of a shock for us. Hopefully just a fluke, but I did have to knock down a star for that. It does also seem that the Blue Ghost needs to be mixed in to other inks at a pretty high percentage if you're trying to get it to fluoresce.

This is a very nice pen at a good price, I believe. It's very nice to be able to use any ink I want in it, and it works very well. Thanks to Pen Chalet for making it available when I couldn't fine it elsewhere.

Great pen! I admittedly have been swapping nibs out on this one, but in general, Noodler's flex nibs are wonderful. Ahab is a good size, even for smaller hands.

This is a great flex wfitter. Unlike other flex nibs, this isn't as thin, but puts down a nice thick line. At the smallest, feels more like a small stub. Be careful with the silicon grease, it is difficult to get off a transparent pen.

I chose the Seven Pines Ebonite and the figure is quite nice. The music nib is excellent, writes well and is quite responsive to pressure to alter the line weight with no railroading. In addition for a three tine nib is exceptionally smooth which makes it lots of fun to use.

The pen smelled like burning rubber as I retracted the nib. Mind you, I think stinky things are fun, so I wasn't particularly troubled by this (I'm a biologist/chemist by education and experience). I was surprised how much effort I had to put into extending and retracting the nib. Perhaps it won't be as difficult once I ink the pen. It could also mean that my antique Moore's safety pen needs new gaskets.

So glad I finally got one of these! It's very comfortable to hold and so smooth to write with. The resin has a really nice feel too. Yes, it smells funny... two weeks later it still smells somewhat but I don't care! I love writing with it and am really glad I finally bought one (probably the first of many).

My husband is an artist so his ink - and its permanence - is very important to him. This Noodlers Ink went to his pilot fountain pen. Lovely color. It is perfect for his needs.

Noodler's inks are a love-hate kind of ink since their unique properties don't always mesh well with expectations, but I can say the following:
I have more Noodler's inks in my collection than any other brand. As all of them are ultra-saturated, you can dilute them about 20-30% with clean water (I use distilled) to thin out the mix and improve the shading. If your ink is a bulletproof ink that has that "smell", then this also helps to cut down on that. Feathering and bleeding through paper, along with 0 shading, is often a function of the excessive amount of dyestuff used in the inks, so dilution definitely helps out.
Diluted, I prefer Noodler's inks to almost any other and I keep large stocks of Blue Black, Zhivago, Red Black and Bulletproof Black (and Roller Eel Black) on hand. The fact that I can get these inks overseas is a relief and a testament to the intrepid PenChalet owners!

Bought two bottles, Baystate Blue and Black Swan in Australian Roses. 16 oz bottles were very carefully packed and survived the journey without incident.

Got the Ahab in Truk Lagoon; mine looks bluer and cloudier than the picture. Thankfully, my pen worked right away (I did flush it with water first, as per the instructions). I'm new to flex pens, but I was having fun with this in no time! I love how it's so versatile: you can use the piston converter (with or without the breather tube), eyedropper it, or use refillable cartridges; you can switch out the nib with any #6 nib; you can adjust the flow and the flex by repositioning the nib and the feed....
I've already ordered another Ahab to use with a Jinhao #6 fude nib :)

Flows well. Doesn't feather. As black as can be. Effectively waterproof. The built-in eyedropper is handy -- its only drawback is that it means the bottle opening is small, so it's harder to fill converter pens with this ink.

Ink love at first Sight:
I inked up a 80’s Sheaffer (M) with a Burgundy barrel with this ink
My first sight of this ink is pure delight-A Red that borders on maroon without any blue tone- its really hard to describe. Its bold without being brash.
So glad I took the chance and tried it out!

This pen is beautiful band well designed.
The grip is quite comfortable- it has that concave finger friendly form, with a flare just before the nib- reminiscent of vintage pens.
I appreciate the ink window. I inked my stunningly beautiful “Wendigo” Konrad with a blue the same color as the swirls.
The pen writes very well. Its a good experience tgat can lead to longer writing sessions with the weight bring lighter and the comfort of the grip.
I can write extremely fast with this pen.
