Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Model

Wherein my Fire and Ice Franklin-Christoph Model 40P (IM) is paired with De Atramentis Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

On my Fire and Ice Franklin-Christoph Model 40P (IM) joined its comrades when it was filled with De Atramentis Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The pen was in use for one month and was emptied and cleaned on , saying good-bye to its fellows.

Thoughts Before Filling

I sampled this ink with an italic dip nib and found it to be a nice red. Based on the plastic sample vial I do not think this should stain the pen at all. I wanted to try it out now because being the Christmas season I am in the mood for some red and green ink, and this looked to be a suitable red.

Thoughts After Cleaning the Pen

This is a decent red ink, though it veers into the pink end of the spectrum. All in all I have other red inks that I prefer better and think of when I think of “red.”
