Complete List of Noodler's Ink

[Excoriar]

Sorry.. the Black Water is actually called the "Black Strait". From the reviews here, it doesn't have the best temperment amongst inks, which the ink may have inherited from the strait here.

[Mannenhitsu]

This is very useful, as it places each ink into it's proper category. :clap1:

[Melnicki]

Thanks for the tidbits, Excoriar. With these names, I found images of the ink labels...

(Actually, now I note that someone had posted the "Black Strait" images ON THIS THREAD. I had never noticed it.)

 

I feel like we FPN'ers need to go Noodler's-hunting, and discover some of the treasures Nathan has scattered around the world. Not to obtain the inks, just to know more details about them... The labels and colors and names and concepts and presence of them is really fascinating to me.

Okay, I'll confess.

 

I've been trying to get together all the NON-LIMITED blue inks Nathan makes (and I'm somewhat generous about the definition of "blue") so as to make one big color chart. I've got about 20 of them, and I'm missing all the Swisher blues, and all the overseas blues that Pendemonium doesn't carry.

 

So -- if anyone who has any of the blues I don't have would like to trade samples for inks I do have, PM me. I'll be prepping a bunch of samples tonight.

 

You can see the inks I have here. I do currently have a few that I've not put up there, though.

Melnicki, I've found that the Fort Zeelandia blue is a bit misleading. While the sample shown is what you get when the ink is wet, once dry, it turns into a blue that closer resembles the blue on the actual label.

[scribbler77]

For example - the colors specific to India are different from those with labels specific to Sweden...and have different properties. Stockholm Indigo can be determined as a unique ink within seconds at any forensics or crime lab worldwide...right down to the bottle - it is a completely unique security ink that has specific light reflective properties and permanence that is unlike any other upon the globe - thus a "specific" security ink. Security inks have different properties - and the retailer who sells a security ink has a list of those particular unique properties (as does the retailer in Stockholm).

 

Does anyone know which retailer in Stockholm sells Stockholm Indigo?

 

(I plan to be in Stockholm for a couple of days in July while on a cruise of the Baltic Sea.)

What were those different density inks?

[Deirdre]

What were those different density inks?

The ones I heard mentioned were koi (red/white) and panda (black/white).

[JerseyJim]

Using the list at the head of the thread as a starting point, and adding as best as I can the additions, this is what I've found - not all are currently or readily available, and this is far short of 500. Several of these colors not otherwise available in the US can be had with some regularity at that online auction site...

Apologies in advance for any errors or oversights

[Silent Speaker]

JerseyJim,

 

There are 2 more German exclusives that I know of:

Iron Chancellor and some other green ink (I can't remember the name, but I think it was some kind of stand in for MB racing green... at least, the art work had those old racing cars on it.)

 

There's also the whole line of Singapore inks (which I know nothing about), and a few 'newer' Noodlers like #41 Brown etc... (and the new Badger&Blade limited ed. "5 o'clock Shadow")

 

Just look through the ink reviews section; if it's been reviewed (and, it likely has) it's listed there. Remember, the list at the top that you used as a basis for your own is over 4 years old.

 

I do wonder what 'secret' inks there are, that is, 'private label' inks the Noodler's man has made for people/groups that do not advertise the fact on the net and FP community.

 

=-=-=-=-

EDIT:

 

I almost forgot: there's also that Australian exclusive, "Coral Sea" or somesuch.

 

And by the way, what is "Yellow Ghost" that you have listed as an Invisible ink? I've never heard of that one before.

Edited August 18, 2011 by Silent Speaker

[JerseyJim]

Thank you - I've found so much more info subsequently that I rather regret the posting. I have seen mention of Coral Sea, but lacked enough info (i.e. actual name and series) to feel comfortable listing it. "Yellow Ghost" was a typo - it should have been "Golden Ghost, and per Nathan, there were only 20 bottles; he discusses it earlier in this thread. I started with the idea of finding a comprehensive list of all of Noodler's offerings, and while I would like to assemble a matrix of titles, sizes and features, it seems that doing so will be a significant and dynamic challenge. I am chagrined by my ommision of #41, as I own a bottle...

[asdf]

I've seen reviews of three other Noodler's inks exclusive to Dromgoole's: Texas Bluebonnet, Texas Live Oak, and The Alamo's Twilight.

[SamCapote]

Jim, great effort. I'll give my two cents feedback, starting from the top of your list which I saved as a text file. You may want to go through the Ink Reviews which have a number of these. I would have to do a complete inventory to see what else may be missing, but these are the main ones in addition to your list. I think this adds up to 200 inks.

 

1) Missing

'41 Brown

 

2) Correct name to:

Manjiro Nakahama Whaleman's Sepia

 

3) You duplicated

Green Marine

as Marine Green (former is correct)

 

4) I think you should add "

Red

" after

Nikita Red, Tiananmen Red, and Widow Maker Red

 

5) You have

Walnut

in the bulletproof section already.

 

6) Add "

Black

" after

X-Feather Black

 

7) I would

forget "Yellow Ghost"

or you will be chasing down all of the small one time inks that were made over 5 years ago.

 

8) Missing

Polar Green

from Bulletproof section

 

9) I would

forget Art Brown's Legal Blue

which I have not seen in over 5 years, and was regarded the same as Pendemonium Legal Lapis which has always been available.

 

10) Art Brown does have another color:

Pinstripe Homage

 

11) FYI: Last I heard, Swisher has dropped all their exclusives after they sell their remaining stock

 

12) Two more German exclusives to Missing-Pen.de

The Iron Chancellor

& 3 or 4 versions of

Das verschollene Grün

trying to get a Noodler's replacement for discontinued Montblanc Racing Green

 

13) UK exclusive "

Prime of the Commons

" available at Niche's

Pelikan Pens

or TheWritingDesk.com

 

14)

Dromgooles

also has 4 others:

Texas Blue Bonnet, Black Bat, Texas Live Oak Green, The Alamo's Twilight

(some may be unobtainum now)

 

15)

White Peacock & Upper Ganges Blue

are not "India" restricted.

You can buy them from Greenman here

.

 

16) Missing the whole

12 ink Noodler's Singapore Series

:

 

Esplanade

Honourable Blue

Judicial Black

Lotus Grace

Majestic Orange

Peranakan Brown

Samsui Red

Singapore Sepia

Singapore Sling

Spirit of Bamboo

Sentosa Tranquility

Vanda Ms Joaquim

17) Australian Market:

Coral Sea

 

18) Taiwan Market:

China Expeditionary Force 1944

 

19) Exclusive to Badger & Blade shaving store:

5 O'Clock Shadow

 

20) Missing

Bluerase & Blackerase

(for whiteboards)

Edited August 19, 2011 by SamCapote

[Silent Speaker]

SamCapote,

 

Is Prime of the Commons just a British version of Legal Lapis?

I remember reading a review which speculated on this...

-=-=-=-

EDIT:

 

And before I forget to ask, what did Golden Ghost look like under black light? Does anybody (who can speak freely) know?

 

Am I guessing correctly that it fluoresced a yellowy colour as contrasted with Blue Ghost's blueish glow?

Edited August 19, 2011 by Silent Speaker

[Michael R.]

Wonderful list and great additions from Sam.

 

Let me add that there are at least two different versions of the missing-pen Prussian Blue (I have a bad flowing very early dark blue version and a better, later bright turquoise blue version).

 

Das verschollene Gruen came in three versions.

 

Alao I would like to add significantly changed early and late versions of GI Green and Highland's Heather (or was it Mata Hari ?)
