ON MOTION
DYK, Circuit Judge.

ORDER
Appellee GB II Corporation d/b/a Columbia River Knife and Tool Company ("CRKT") moves to dismiss these appeals and for sanctions and costs. Appellant Taylor Brands, LLC ("Taylor") opposes, and CRKT replies. We deny the motion to dismiss the first appeal, but grant the motion to dismiss the second.

BACKGROUND
Taylor sued CRKT in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee alleging infringement of U.S. Patent No. 6,651,344 ("'344 patent") relating to assisted opening knives. CRKT counterclaimed seeking declaratory judgments of non-infringement and invalidity. The parties consented to having a United States Magistrate Judge conduct all proceedings in the case. Prior to discovery, CRKT moved for partial summary judgment of non-infringement as to twenty-two of its accused products. CRKT characterized *876 its motion as being, "as a practical matter ... case dispositive."[1] CRKT further informed the court that it was seeking an "efficient way to resolve [the] case," and that "[i]f there's no infringement then the Defendant should be free to go home... and can dismiss its counterclaims of invalidity without prejudice allowing judgment to be entered and the case to be appealed at that point on just the infringement question." Summ. J. Hr'g Tr. 53, 55-56, Ex. B. Both parties thereafter moved for leave to amend their pleadings to add additional claims for false marking and false advertising. On November 19, 2009, in light of its construction of certain claim terms, the district court granted CRKT's motion for partial summary judgment, holding that "there is no infringement of the '344 Patent by those knives sold by CRKT bearing the following model numbers: [listing twenty-two knife models]." Ex. 9, at 10-11.
On December 2, 2009, both parties agreed to withdraw their motions to amend their pleadings to add false marking and false advertising claims, and CRKT agreed to dismiss without prejudice its counterclaim for a declaratory judgment of invalidity. These steps made it possible for the court to enter a final judgment. Taylor requested that the court enter a final judgment, and both parties signed a proposed Stipulated Final Judgment which was submitted to the court on December 9, 2009. The district court signed the proposed order the same day, which provides as follows:
The Court having granted Defendant's Motion for Partial Summary Judgment, with the parties' consent, it is hereby ordered and adjudged that:
a) Defendant [CRKT] has not infringed U.S. Patent No. 6,651,344;
b) Plaintiff [Taylor's] First Amended Complaint for infringement of U.S. Patent No. 6,651,344 is dismissed with prejudice;
c) Plaintiff [Taylor's] motion for leave to amend its complaint to add certain additional counts is withdrawn;
d) Defendant CRKT's counterclaim seeking a declaratory judgment of invalidity is dismissed without prejudice; and
e) Defendant CRKT's motion for leave to amend its counterclaims to add certain additional counts is withdrawn.
Stipulated Final J., Taylor Brands, LLC v. GB II Corp., No. 08-CV-325 (E.D.Tenn. Dec. 9, 2009) (emphasis added).
On December 29, 2009, Taylor filed a notice of appeal from the Stipulated Final Judgment ("first notice of appeal") seeking to challenge the court's grant of summary judgment of non-infringement. CRKT now moves to dismiss Taylor's first notice of appeal on grounds that Taylor has waived any right to appeal by consenting *877 to the entry of a judgment against it without expressly reserving the right to appeal.
Taylor subsequently filed a second notice of appeal on March 26, 2010 ("second notice of appeal"), apparently seeking to challenge the district court's order denying CRKT's motion for attorney fees. CRKT moves to dismiss Taylor's second notice of appeal for lack of standing.

DISCUSSION

I
With respect to the first notice of appeal from the December 9, 2009, judgment, CRKT contends that Taylor waived its right to appeal by consenting to the entry of a final judgment without expressly reserving its right to appeal.[2] We disagree.
Under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, most judgments, including Rule 56 summary judgment orders, are not effective until "set out in a separate document"e.g., an official "judgment"and entered by the clerk of the court. Fed. R.Civ.P. 58. When this procedure is required, it is common for courts to ask the parties to stipulate to the form of the final judgment. This practice was indeed common even before the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. For example, in 1917 the Supreme Court recognized that such stipulated judgments do not bar an appeal of the underlying judgment. Thomsen v. Cayser, 243 U.S. 66, 83, 37 S.Ct. 353, 61 L.Ed. 597 (1917). In Thomsen, the defendant-appellee had moved to dismiss the appeal on grounds that "the judgment of the circuit court was entered in the form finally adopted at the request of the plaintiffs and by their consent, and the errors assigned by plaintiffs were waived by such request and consent." Id. at 82, 37 S.Ct. 353. The Court denied the motion, holding that "[t]he plaintiffs did not consent to a judgment against them, but only that, if there was to be such a judgment, it should be final in form instead of interlocutory, so that they may come to this court without further delay." Id. at 83, 37 S.Ct. 353.
Subsequent to Thomsen v. Cayser, both the Supreme Court and the courts of appeals have repeatedly held that the entry of a stipulated final judgment after a dispositive ruling does not bar an appeal. See United States v. Procter & Gamble, 356 U.S. 677, 680-81, 78 S.Ct. 983, 2 L.Ed.2d 1077 (1958) (finding appeal was proper because "[t]he Government at all times opposed the production orders," and "[w]hen the Government proposed dismissal for failure to obey, it had lost on the merits and was only seeking an expeditious review"); OFS Fitel, LLC v. Epstein, Becker & Green, P.C., 549 F.3d 1344, 1358 (11th Cir.2008) (finding plaintiff could appeal where, "[b]ecause the interlocutory sanctions order was case-dispositive and [plaintiff] opposed that interlocutory order on the merits, [plaintiff stood] adverse to the resulting final judgment that was expressly based on the undisputed case-dispositive nature of the contested interlocutory ruling"); The Ansaldo San Giorgio I, 73 F.2d 40, 41 (2d Cir.1934) ("[I]t is clear from the record that this was not a decree to which the libelant consented in any such sense as to bar an appeal.... [T]he entry *878 of the final decree merely carried into effect the court's previous decision on a litigated issue. The appeal is properly here."). Similarly, in United States v. Safeco Insurance Co., 65 Fed.Appx. 637, 638-39 (9th Cir.2003) (unpublished), the court found that the defendant "consent[ed] merely to the form of judgment," because the "evidence, including the lack of a rational reason for abandoning its right to appeal, indicate[d] that [the defendant's] signature was not intended to represent [its] consent to the court's summary judgment rulings." We are aware of no case in which a party was found to have waived its right to appeal due to the mere ministerial act of stipulating to the form of a final judgment.
The distinction between consenting to the substance of a judgment (i.e., agreeing as to what the substantive outcome of the judgment will be) and merely consenting to the judgment's form (including agreeing that the judgment will be final instead of interlocutory) is crucial to the issue of whether waiver of a party's right to appeal should be presumed. A party who consents to the substance of a judgment should indeed be presumed to have waived its right to appealabsent an express reservation of that right on the recordbecause voluntarily agreeing to an adverse substantive outcome is an indication that the party has abandoned its underlying claims or defenses. In contrast, no waiver existseven without a reservation of appellate rightswhen a party consents solely to the form of a judgment, because merely agreeing to the form of a judgment does not in itself imply that the party agrees with the judgment's substantive outcome or intends to abandon its position on the issues.
CRKT cites a litany of cases in which parties who consented to adverse judgments were held to have waived their rights to appeal by failing to expressly reserve that right on the record. However, these and similar cases are distinguishable because they involved situations in which a party consented to the substance of an adverse judgment as opposed to merely its form. Unlike the present case, these cases all involved either settlement agreements[3] or voluntary dismissals[4] *879 both of which necessarily imply a party's consent to the substantive outcome.
In this case, there has been no showing that the parties entered into any settlement agreement. In particular, there has been no showing that Taylor agreed to surrender its infringement claim as to the twenty-two knives in consideration of CRKT's agreement to withdraw its motion to amend and to dismiss its invalidity challenges to the patent. CRKT itself had earlier suggested that those actions be taken to enable a final judgment to be entered. Moreover, there has been no showing that Taylor voluntarily dismissed its claim. To the contrary, Taylor consented to the entry of a final judgment only after the district court had granted summary judgment of non-infringement. Taylor had opposed CRKT's summary judgment motion on the merits, and the resulting order was clearly dispositive of the vast majority of Taylor's infringement claims. Taylor's consent at that point to the purely ministerial act of entering a judgment pursuant to Rule 58 implementing the summary judgment decision cannot be construed as consent to the substance of the summary judgment order. Even the case upon which CRKT heavily relies recognizes "that sometimes in a contested case the judge will render decision and tell the parties to agree on the wording of the judgment order or on other details left open by the decision," and that "[s]uch a `consent judgment' would carry no implication of any waiver of the right to appeal." ACORN v. Edgar, 99 F.3d at 262.
CRKT contends that the order granting partial summary judgment of non-infringement in fact was "not dispositive of the entire case as it then existed" because the summary judgment order (1) only applied to the twenty-two accused products specifically named in the order; (2) did not address induced or contributory infringement; and (3) did not decide the parties' motions to amend to add new claims for false marking and false advertising. CRKT Reply Br. 8-9. However, CRKT ignores the fact that the summary judgment order was indeed dispositive of Taylor's infringement claims against the twenty-two identified products. Of course, the fact that some collateral issues were not resolved by a dispositive interlocutory order indicates that Taylor consented to the substance of the judgment to the extent that it extended beyond carrying the summary judgment order into effect. Taylor has thus waived its right to contest any such collateral issues on appeal by failing to expressly reserve that right. However, because Taylor clearly consented to only the form of the judgment insofar as it effectuates the summary judgment order, Taylor has not waived its right to appeal the summary judgment order itself and any issues addressed therein (e.g., certain claim construction rulings).
Consequently, we deny CRKT's motion to dismiss Taylor's first notice of appeal.


*880 II
Taylor's second notice of appeal purports in part to be from the order of March 1, 2010, which denied CRKT's motion for an award of attorney fees. As Taylor was not aggrieved by that decision, Taylor lacks standing to challenge it on appeal.
To the extent that Taylor's second notice of appeal also purports to be from the Stipulated Final Judgment, it is duplicative.
We therefore grant CRKT's motion to dismiss Taylor's second notice of appeal.

III
ACCORDINGLY, IT IS ORDERED THAT:
(1) The motion to dismiss Taylor's first notice of appeal (Case No.2010-1151) is DENIED.
(2) The motion to dismiss Taylor's second notice of appeal (Case No.2010-1294) is GRANTED.
(3) The motion for oral argument regarding these motions is DENIED.
(4) The motion for sanctions and costs is DENIED.
