Noodler's Ink - Eel Black, 3 oz.

Noodler's Inks are an extraordinary line of drawing inks that are designed for use specifically with a fountain pen, but are also ideal for dip pens and brushes. Noodler's wide range of unique colors with distinctive names and labels perform well even on more absorbent papers that would normally feather with a fountain pen. Each color has special properties unique to Noodler that will give your writing, hand lettering, drawing, and ink washes characteristics as remarkable as these inks.

Owner Nathan Tardiff makes all of his inks by hand using locally sourced materials when possible, and he intentionally keeps the price as low as possible in order to make them widely accessible. His strongly held political beliefs influence not only the names of his inks, but also his business practices.

All Noodler's Inks and packaging are proudly made in the USA, and the boxes are made of recycled paper. 3 oz. bottle.

Eel Black - This deep black ink is specially formulated to lubricate the pistons of piston-filled fountain pens and converters, helping them to operate more smoothly. It's a good idea to fill your fountain pen with this ink every now and then to keep it operating well. The added lubricant makes these inks very wet and free-flowing, meaning that they are slower-drying and more prone to smearing, feathering, and bleed-through.

Bulletproof Ink - Noodler's "bulletproof" inks use special dyes that make them extremely permanent and resistant to water, bleach, solvents, and UV radiation in an effort to make them fraud proof against forgers and check washers. All bulletproof inks are made archival and fade-resistant without the use of harsh additives that can harm pens if allowed to dry inside them. These inks work best on more absorbent papers where they can sink into the paper, as opposed to smooth finish papers which cause them to dry more slowly and remain susceptible to water.
