I've always wanted this ink, but then I have Swishmix Burgundy. Of course the standard Burgundy will be a better ink overall, but the Swishmix is mostly waterproof (and I have a lot of it). Does anyone know, though, if the two inks are similar in hue (and thus the standard is simply more saturated) or if the hue is totally different? Swishmix is sometimes a bit purplish, less red. Swisher's Maroon also had a nice color (in a written sample from a friend) but it has bad feathering (being a quick-dry).

Thanks for the review and scan. It's an interesting colour.

Nice color. I may need to consider this one. Thanks for the review.

I need a burgundy thats more red than purple. Could this be it?

 

That is above all up to your own likings. This ink has a strong color, and to my eyes contains purple as well as red tones.

Great review, thanks! I'm on the hunt for the right burgundy and you spared me a lot of bother. :)

Maybe; the ink in my bottle of Burgundy is somewhat less purple than it appears in the scans above (in my experience colours in this range look more purple on a computer screen). It provides great shading when used with italic nibs (I've just been using it in a Stipula with a 1.1 nib reground to oblique).

I bought Eel Rattler Red and was pleasantly surprised. It's Red wine color to me that is more red than purple, may be exactly what you want. I like it very much so now I'm looking into Burgundy. Regards, BH

I have also purchased Rattler Red recently, and use it as my preferred ink for correcting manuscripts. It's not what I expected, but it is a beautiful red wine colour.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
