Ink on Cheap Paper Test #18, Noodler's Black Swan in Australian Roses

Noodler's Black Swan in Australian Roses is a semi-bulletproof ink, meaning that when exposed to water the "the color of your writing may be compromised, but the content of your writing will always remain legible." Reviews for this ink can vary based on the formula used, but Mountain of Ink, Goulet Pens, Stationary Journey, and Pen Inkcillin have opinions on it. These samples were written using a Jinhao 86 with a fine nib.

Best One-Sided Performer: The legal pad edges out the small legal pad due to instant dry time and more writing area overall.

Best Two-Sided Performer: pen & GEAR picks up its first best performance here. The ghosting was much less noticeable.

The Post-It-Note Test: With a 5 second dry time and great readability, this is a great ink for quick notes.

TLDR [Drying Time, (B)leed, (G)host]: Legal Pad - 0, B, G; small Legal Pad - 5, G; Steno Pad - 10, G; Copy Paper 20lb - 5, G; Scratchpad - 0, B, G; p&G Notebook - 5, G.
