Noodler's Ink: Antietam

Recommended Posts

Well ink fans, I'm back with another ink review for your one minute reading addiction. :)

 

I'm sampling a few new inks lately. For today we have Noodler's Antietam.

Thanks for the review. This is a great ink that I use every day to grade papers because it allows me to use the traditional reddish color without all the negativity associated with bright red ink. I find that students can see my comments more clearly in contrast with the black ink of their papers.

Just remember that it might look different coming out of your guys' pens. In most of my pens, it looks reaaaally orange :/

I have this ink and I love it. The only caution I would have is, it is not a wet ink. When I switched my Pelikan BB from Noodler's Cayenne to Noodler's Antietam, the difference was noticeable. The line became a shade thinner and the flow clearly went down. If you have a dry nib, the Noodler's Cayenne could be a good alternative for a almost similar look.

Antietam's a pretty decent ink by itself, but mixed about 3 to 1 with Polar Brown, it makes a very nice semi-permanent red-brown. It's kind of like J. Herbin Terre de Feu on steroids.

 

I loaded my Gojendra with it yesterday, so it's a good thing I like the color. I'll be seeing for a while.

The liberty of the press is indeed essential to the nature of a free state; but this consists in laying no previous restraints upon publications, and not in freedom from censure for criminal matter when published. Every freeman has an undoubted right to lay what sentiments he pleases before the public; to forbid this, is to destroy the freedom of the press; but if he publishes what is improper, mischievous or illegal, he must take the consequence of his own temerity. (4 Bl. Com. 151, 152.) Blackstone's Commentaries

      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
