A Proper Ink for a person looking for a Green color

I found the "Green" color I was looking for in this ink :)

Great Color and Great Dry Time

I purchased this because I liked the color and it was rated to have a decent dry time. I can confirm that it has both a great color and dries rather quickly. I'll probably be purchasing a bottle in the future.

Green!!

very prone to spread and bleed. only works well on Tomoe River Paper but it's the only nice permanent green I know and it's a beautiful rich true green. It's the kinda green you learn is green in grade school very classic color

spreads

Maybe I got a bad batch? but Hunter is by far the most ill-behaved ink I've tried. Writing with a Pilot Metro (fine), it spread like crazy on a Rhodia dot pad and Clairefontaine, making a line at least twice as thick as anything else I've tried, and it looked like it was going to bleed through if I kept writing with it. Like writing with some kind of ooze. Totally unusable for me. Green Marine behaved much better, despite a pretty slow dry time.

A Great Shade of Green

Purchased a sample about a 2 weeks ago and have been using it since. It is a very satisfactory sharp green, I will definitely be purchasing a bottle. I have an affinity for green and this ink works and looks very good with my tiscribe. I color code my notes for work, and this is the ink I use for my personal notes.

Great Green!

I bought this as a sample to try with my green Platinum Plasir pen in fine. To me it is a bit brighter than the picture on the website, but it is an excellent green. Even with the fine nib I get some up/down stroke shading so that keeps everything interesting. I am still searching for the green bottle I want to buy, and this one is in the running for sure.

The right shade of green

Its bright enough to stand out from black text but dark enough to be readable. For reference, I prefer this ink over Noodler's green marine. It performs well on copy paper.

Permanent Deep Green

I've used this filling out paperwork several places, and it's currently in my everyday carry. It's been through a couple pens because of troubles with other inks, and it's behaved well in each. There is some feathering on the super cheap paper at work, but you have to look for it. I love the color, a deep green, exactly what I think of for hunter green. I'm very happy with it.

Great Color

The ability to order a sample is a wonderful feature. I love the color green and Noodler's Hunter Green really hits the mark for me. I look forward to ordering many more samples to try out.

I'd take Green over Hunter Green

This green feathered quite harshly for me, so I'd take the regular green over hunter green. Shades are very close to the same.

Noodler's Hunter Green

I love this ink! It's exactly the shade of green I was looking for and flows perfectly in my Lamy Safari. I'm on my second refill already.

A Interesting Green Ink

The ink lays down a brightish leaf green, but after a day it has fully dries out and has becomed a nice hunter green. The more yellowish portion can run when wettened, but the hunter remains intact.

Love all the Colors of Bulletproof Inks!

They seem to run, though, when I apply water to them. That really looks good, but I didn't expect that it would bleed since they are bulletproof. Am I misunderstanding something?

Very nice green

I have wanted a nice looking green ink that is not yellowish or blackish. I like this green for my notes and when writing short letters. Waterproof so it can used for addresses on envelopes. 1oz bottle, not 3 oz. That's okay becase it is a very nice, good writing ink.

great color

I love the bulletproof inks; I use them for addressing envelopes. So much nicer than markers!

Green, Emeraldy

I don't know if emeraldy is a word, but it works well for this ink. It's nice and green, and matches my mental image of what an emerald should be. That said, I found the ink to be a bit slow to dry. The color was nice, and I didn't see much feathering, but I don't enjoy waiting for the page to dry.

Very green

Very bright green that flows nicely, sports anti-forge properties, and is UV reactive.

I enjoy it.

I use it in my journal for a change of color. I rotate colors actually. I was wondering about it's water fastness so I wrote on a piece of paper and tried washing the ink out of the page using the sprayer. I literally started washing the paper away after a while, and the ink was still perfectly visible. At the very start, there was a tiny bit of bleed, but very legible after 2 minutes of washing. It seems to bleed a bit into the paper. Better paper might make a difference. It is a bright green on white paper though. In my journal it's a bit darker. I don't enjoy it so much on white paper.No trouble feeding through my pens. Noodlers Ahab. Lamy Safari.

Long Dry Time

I LOVE this color but HATE the dry time. I got this to replace the Private Reserve Sherwood Green Fast Dry but not too sure if I would commit to a full bottle.. Get a few sample vials before committing to a full bottle.

Hunter Green Eternal

I've been using this off and on for a while, and it is really a great ink. I'm not sure if hunter green is exactly the right color description (seems a tad light for that, but it's all subjective). What impresses me about the stuff is that it is extremely well behaved. I use it for grading mostly (in a Lamy fine nib) and it doesn't really belled or feather across a wide variety of cheap paper. It is definitely waterproof as well. Can't speak to it's resistance to bleach, acid, cat pee, nuclear weapons, etc, but it should be pretty permanent. Only gripe is that it is 3x as expensive as the other Noodler's, since you only get an ounce.

I Was Looking for a Christmas Green...

... that was also waterproof for addressing Christmas cards. Since this is one of the Eternal Series inks, I was hoping the color would be a nice Christmasy green.Yes. It is just what Santa was looking for! While it's not a color I have a lot of use for, it's definitely something I will keep on hand for those times that the color fits.

Still in search of a bulletproof green

Ok flow, nice colour. I am still finding a comparative dry green ink for my wet pens.

Noodlers Hunter

If you like a muted green then this ink is possibly a hit with you. I personally like more vibrant greens. The ink was well behaved, there was nothing wrong with it. It was just that the color was not what i am looking for in a green ink. My favorite so far is Iroshizuku shin-ryoki, but the Pilot inks are just sooo expensive.Wont be getting this one.

Spreads Out Way To Much

I prefer water-resistant inks when possible. For this reason alone Hunter Green was high on my list to try. I found that it spreads badly on all four types of paper I tried it on including Rhodia and Clairefontaine. This tells me that Hunter Green is certainly not an ink for general use. As with such inks, Hunter Green shows no shading. It is also quite pricey at $13 per ounce.Still, it's an attractive, eye-catching green that might be nice on a carefully chosen paper that it performs better on. For this it's worth a couple stars.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I fill my fountain pen from an ink sample vial? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

The technique depends on the fountain pen's filling mechanism.

How much writing can I really do with 2ml? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

We find that usually you can get 2 good fills for a typical converter with our ink samples, or one good fill with a large capacity piston-filling pen.

How much writing you can do depends on you more than anything else. It mostly depends on how big or small you write, and the nib size you’re using. We recommend experimenting with different nib sizes to find what works best for you.
