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!

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

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:

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

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
