on saleNoodler's Rattler Red Eel - 3oz Bottled Ink

The delivery of this ink was amazingly fast and packaged with the care only Goulet knows. And really like this shade of red. It's a darker red that will look good for Christmas cards.or writing a letter to friends.

This ink is a nice red. Not too bloodlike, not too dark or light. First I got a sample of it. It was in the Noodler's Eel series sampler. I got it for my red Parker Sonnet which is a dry writer and needed a wet ink. It flows very well and dries reasonably with very little showthrough if any. It shows up legibly yet obviously red on off white paper. This ink makes a dry nib a pleasure rather than a chore to write with.My other favorite ink in the red family is Iroshizuku fuyu-gaki. The Noodle's Red Rattler is good for everyday writing in my journal or notes. I think it will he a cheerful color for Christmas cards.

I like this red! - It goes on very bright and wet, but as it dries, it does darken up a bit. Has a slight brown hint to it, and takes a long while to try if you're using anything wider than an extra fine European or Japanese fine nib. - Seems to lubricate the nib to paper well, and really helped smooth out my scratchy Kaweco fine nib. - It does take a long while to dry, which was my only complaint. Roughly 30 seconds to a minute, if not longer when the ink is laid down in any amount of thickness. No water resistance, that I can tell, but is a great red ink if you don't mind it's faults!

I meant to send a thank you note to Brandon regarding the superb packaging job. Everything arrived in perfect shape. So, thanks, Brando!Brian and I have worked together before. He made some great suggestions on ink and I'm enjoying them immensely. Brian, the nibs on the new pens are perfect.

great, as prommised
