The name does justice to the color, very nice forest green. I like that you point out the drying time and feathering/bleeding. Any chance of including water fastness and UV test?

Yes, please show how water and UV affect this very nice green ink. I use Green Marine because it is "near bulletproof". It would be awesome if this was near bulletproof as well.

In the "Water Test" I have done, I just drag a wet cotton swap through the lines. As you can see, it got some water resistance but wasn't really build for that purpose.

 

Living in southern Arizona, UV test should be pretty easy for me. How long do you want me to leave it outdoors? :)

That's a nice looking green. Has it been compared to Noodler's Hunter's Green?

With the new FPN rules, now I REALLY don't know what to put in my signature.

I got a bottle of this ink myself, and I liken it to 'Emerald City' green, like in The Wizard of Oz. B)

Has anyone used the Diamine Delamere Green? It's my favourite dark green ink, but zero water resistant. This Noodler's Forest green looks similar, anyone has both and can comment and compare them ? Would be much appreciated..

This was one of the first non-black inks I bought. I absolutely loved the colour, but I have just a bit of trouble getting past the feathering it has on cheaper papers. This may have been because I mostly used it in a flex pen, but I think it may just be the ink.

All things considered however, if you have decent quality paper and are looking for a darker, bolder green, this is definitely for you.

I just bought forest green on Friday and used it to write four full pages of notes all in one go. Awesome ink. I didn't like it at first as it was the second choice green for me. It kinda grows on you. Very good ink.

      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..

      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
