Noodler's Heart of Darkness is a popular permanent black fountain pen ink that comes in a 4.5oz bottle. The bottle has a built-in glass eyedropper so you can easily fill your eyedropper-convertible pens. Comes with a free Noodler’s “Charlie” eyedropper fountain pen. This ink is popular for its very dark color and performance on absorbent paper, particularly its ability to resist bleed through and feathering. If you don't have a say in the quality of the paper you use, this ink is one of the best for you. Noodler's inks are handcrafted, so there may be slight color variations from batch to batch.

My first ink

This is my first ink ever in my new Platinum Prefounte that I converted to eye dropper. Works great! Very dark lines with minimal bleed through or feathering even on low quality paper.

Charlie Pen

This is a BIG bottle of ink ! This is going to last me a long time . The included Charlie pen was fun to fill and start using . The entire barrel being filled , this is a LOT of ink . It writes nice and the ink is blacker than black .

Bad luck with fountain pens

Great value! Great depth of color! This is my favorite ink to use with my dip pens and ink painting. Perfect for that. It has worked great in fountain pens up until around day 7ish, after which it clogs my pens! Including the Charlie pen it came with. :/ I tested it on multiple platinum preppy's, platinum Prefounte, kaweco sport, sailor compass, and a few other relatively trusty pens. I'm wondering if I just got a batch with larger particles in it, as I LOVE my Noodlers Baystate blue and have had no issues with that.

It's Black!

With the included pen, you can use this on regular legal pad paper. Minimal feathering. A great everyday black that will stay where you put it.

The Vac Ink Well works amazing

I have a Pen State Industries Majestic and the small silicone insert makes a perfect seal. Not a vac pen, but it works flawless. I tip it upside down, turn the converter, and wow! Also, great deal on silicone lubricant. Oh, and Noodlers Ink Heart of Darkness is always my favorite ink :)

Frequently Asked Questions

Which pens can accept this ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Any of these fountain pens will work with bottled ink. Typically, as long as the pen can be filled with a converter, has a built-in filling mechanism like a piston, or can be eyedropper-filled, it can accept bottled ink. You can also refill an empty ink cartridge from bottled ink using an ink syringe.
