A handwritten review of Noodler's Luxury Blue fountain pen ink. |
Noodler's Luxury Blue is from the line of Noodler's Eternal Inks. That is, they are meant to be water, light, and (yes, folks) even bleach-proof. These forever inks are sometimes referred to as bulletproof and fraud-resistant.
While I won't take the time to list them all here, here's a link to the bulletproof inks that Goulet Pens carries.
Let's dive in . . .
A good medium blue with some nice shading.
No flow issue or other complaints from me.
Some reviewers have published pictures and statements that indicate that the ink is more dusky/chalky than I have shown here. This is a little surprising to me because while the ink is not super-saturated, the color is definitely clear and bright.
Noodler's Luxury Blue is an expensive ink. As of this writing, it is $13.50 for one ounce at Goulet Pens. Meanwhile, another bulletproof ink (Bad Belted Kingfisher) is $12.50 for three ounces.
Bottom line: I like it, I don't love it.
Have you tried this ink? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Thanks for the great review! I agree - it's nice but not a "love it" ink...
