Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Any cheaper alternative (just for writing definitons and underlining, i don't need shading and these are not super available) ?

 

(I'm afraid about bleed/feather of Monaco Red)

One of my new favorite reds: Diamine's Wild Strawberry. Very bright, very intense. Just on the line between a true red and moving towards orange. Perfect.

Super pretty rosey red with a delicate hint of rosewater scent. In a pen with a fine nib, it's great for grading student papers.

A really beautiful shade of winey red. I have an old, cheap scanner, so I'm not 100% sure that the color is true, but close. It's in a fine point pen, and flows very nicely.

Patchouli is one of my favorite inks (I have a lot, don't I?) because it has a deep, dark red color, and a really fun, trippy scent!

All ink fans are required to post their version of Rouge Hematite. I don't know which incarnation I have, but it's exquisite. The scan does not show the amazing sheen, but that's what makes this ink all the more mysterious and desirable!

Orchids is a lovely ink from de Atramentis. Delicate fragrance, and smooth flow.

BTW, I love de A Orchid.

I loved it and Isellpens didn't have it so I ended up buying a bunch of other stuff. That, however, was my favorite.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
