Nice review! It makes me wonder how it compares to Noodler's black swan in english roses, seeing that this deep red ink in your scan has little to no brown (at least from what I see). Off to check in the swab shop!

Your handwriting really casts into relief the beauty of this ink.

Thanks for the review, I'd been curious about this ink. Lovely handwriting, too!

This is a great ink. Perhaps my favorite.

Thank you for the great review.

Time will say nothing but I told you so.

Noodler's Red Black is one of my favorites! Since I'm not a red ink fan, I was curious when I saw the name of this ink, so I ordered it quite some time ago and love it!

I found this to really look good coming from my Pilot Knight! Saved the ink for me, it's a match made in heaven!

+1 on the samples, some pens make this ink look brown, which was a major turnoff for me, but after experimenting with different pens I found the best in this ink.

Noodler's Red-Brown is currently my go-to ink for editing papers and reports. It's different enough to catch attention without being so in-your-face as a really-red ink. I do see some bleeding with cheap copy paper, though, so be careful if you have to work with that medium.

 

Great review and wonderful hand...

This ink was in heavy use for several months last year, complemented the Noodler's Walnut that I was using primarily.

 

I'm enjoying your ink reviews, mhphoto!

I just got a sample of this ink in my last Goulet order and it reminds me of a ball point that I used (and liked) 30+ years ago... :glare:

NICE! I'm loving the shading on this ink! I think I'm going to have to get a sample. thanks for your review!

Do. It's one of those inks that you keep coming back to once you've used more than one fill.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
