This is a fine-tipped red ink pen with a metal cap. It contained a pale pink ink for fountain pens. Although discontinued, current replacement nibs can be used. In that case, the nib extends slightly too far, so I always cut about a millimeter off with scissors before using it. I will include one current replacement nib separately from the pen body set. This is one of the pens I used for many years, passed down from my father. There are scratches that are visible in the photos. Please understand this before making a purchase.
