Noodler's Ink Refills Green Marine Bottled Ink

Color: The color shades form a light emerald green to a green-black in pilot pen with a soft-fine nib. Probably one of the most naturally stroke varying colors I have used. I could see it giving a more solid green-black in a wetter nib.Ink performance: The ink flows well even in a medium-dry nib. It shades significantly in in upstrokes, but never to the point of skipping. Dry time is acceptable on medium quality laser jet paper. Ink transfer can occur between pages. However, the main issue is is not so much the dry time, as the degree of smudging that occurs within a 5 s window. the ink has above average feathering resistance on copy paper. As with other Noodler's "bulletproof" inks, feathering, when it occurs, seems to be limited to the permanent black dye. The ink is water resistant. The green portion of the colors can blead easily with the least amount of water (even after 60 min+ of drying), but the black dye is indelible, and legibility remains even after soaking.

As far as I've heard, Noodler's is owned by just one guy, and although I'm not sure how many people he employs, I do respect that he tops up every bottle with ink. Make sure you're careful when you open the bottle the first time (!!!) because you do get, as I said, your money's worth -- even if it means ink going all the way up to the brim.In terms of the ink, it is a fine material. Personally, I would favor a more vibrant green but that is nothing to the fault of Noodler's. If you know what color ink this is, and you like it, then you will get what you expect. It is a nice color. It bleeds through on low-quality notebook paper (the sort you'd use for school) but is still useable, particularly if you were using something with an EF nib -- my fine nib bleeds through to some degree.

I’ve got this ink in my green TWSBI 580 AL and I could not be more pleased with it! I splurge a little on my pens, and I save my money by buying Noodler’s Inks (big money, considering every bottle is filled to the brim!). I love the hue of this green — it’s definitely green, but still classy and subtle enough that I don’t feel outlandish using it (even though I only really journal with it). I’ll support Noodler’s & their mission forever!

I got this ink because I've finally used up the last of my Mont Blanc scented green ink (a tragedy, but I digress...) and while this is a slightly lighter green than that ink, it's really quite amazing. The flow is superb with fine and extra fine nibs in both expensive (Meisterstuck) and inexpensive (Lamy) pens, is a mid-green color (not overly dark, but not emerald either), and does not bleed through or feather on any of the papers that I regularly use (mostly better quality paper.) I've not tried it on copy paper or generic notebooks, but it's a glorious writing ink on everything I've used so far. Mine came in the older glass bottle, which was really nice because I prefer those, and was filled to the brim, so use caution when opening. There was the perfect amount of head space to insert a pen to load without overflowing the bottle, an added bonus. This is now my #1 green ink.

The shipper does not know how to pack a glass bottle. It was loose in an unpadded envelope. The plastic lid was broken and unusable. Lucky the ink did not all leak out.

Lovely and saturated green ink. If you are looking for a deep green ink which does not have too much blue, I recommend Green Marine. I would categorise Green Marine as a semipermanent ink; when dried ink is wet it runs and faint but legible marks remain. The ink bleeds and feathers on 80gsm paper but does not bleed and feather on 100gsm paper. It works well in my vintage fountain pens. This is my second bottle of this ink.

This is bright a gorgeous green that feathers like mad on all but the best of papers (like Arches)I AM SORRY ABOUT THIS PREVIOUS POST. THIS IS A WONDERFUL INK WITH GREAT PROPERTIES AND DID NOT FEATHER LIKE MAD. THAT WAS ANOTHER INK. DEPENDING ON PRESSURE USED WITH A PEN, OR BRUSH COLORS VARIED FROM A VERY LIGHT GREEN TO ALMOST BLACK, DO NOT GET IT WET IN THE RAIN.

Well, it’s waterproof in a way. I had a note in my pocket that got damp when it rained and the ink went everywhere, but the actual words are still intact if you look real close. Writes very well, some nibs don’t hold as much of it.
