"Dirt mixed with blood" sounds like the shade of Oxblood I have seen so far in a swab test. I haven't reviewed it yet, but I used it as a comparison ink for Red Dragon, and found it much darker. I have it to review, but I just know I won't like it as much as Red Dragon or Burgundy Rose.

Has anyone compared Oxblood with Montblanc Leonardo Red Chalk? They look sort of similar
