While I’m on the subject of fountain pen inks, I thought I’d seek out some reviews about the old stand-by, black ink.

Here are a few reviews and comparisons I found:

• Parka Blogs tests out just how waterproof Noodler’s Bulletproof Black really is 
• Pentrace has a nice overview of several brands of black inks. Though an older post, these inks are still readily available.
• BiffyBeans compares four different black inks
• Rhodia Drive answers questions about the J. Herbin Perle Noir black ink.
