One of my all time favorite colors is Red/Black (dark maroon) so when I saw this Rattler Red online I had to pick up a bottle. It's pretty close in color to Diamine Red Dragon but the rattler has more "black" in it than the red dragon. The printer paper I used for the form didn't allow for as fast of a dry time as some of the paper I use more regularly so I'll update a paper comparison later on. My only complaint about this ink is how it dries in the pen fairly quickly, so it's definitely an ink you would want to use in a daily pen. http://imgur.com/F0f6PEL

I'm looking into getting a black ink and, since I have a few dry-writing pens, was looking at a lubricated ink. I live in New England, so I thought that Noodler's Polar Black might be a good idea because of the winter weather. However, I've read a few reviews that the freeze resistance isn't very impressive and that the ink is not very well behaved. Would the American Eel Black be a better idea for a general use lubricated black ink? What's the difference between the two, taking the freeze resistance out of the equation? Is there a better behaved option for a lubricated black ink from another brand, or should I just get regular Noodler's Black instead and give up on the lubricated ink idea?

Hey guys: I fell in love with Noodler's Navajo Turquoise when I bought a sample last year. I am finally ready for a new bottle of ink, so that is at the top of my list. But then I saw Noodler's American Eel Turquoise, and it looks extremely similar. I have a few pens that are quite dry writers, so I'm always on the lookout for inks that write wet. Can anyone suggest if I should get Eel Turquoise or Navajo Turquoise? Has anyone tried both? Thanks for the help! -lbr218 swabs courtesy of GouletPens.com
