Ink on Cheap Paper #36, Noodler's Polar Black

Noodler's Polar inks are specially formulated to resist freezing in temperatures down to -20 degrees Fahrenheit. A thin icy film or slush may develop in the ink when it gets close to this limit, but it won't expand and you can even still write with it! All Polar inks are also bulletproof and lubricated. All Polar inks, except this Polar Black, are extremely fast-drying, even faster than Noodler's official fast-drying inks. However, this ink will feather badly, so their use is mainly for their anti-freezing properties. A review for this ink can be found at the Fountain Pen Network. These samples were written with a Hongdian Black Forest pen with a fine nib.
