Abstract
An ink for a ball point comprising at least one organic solvent selected from the group consisting of alcohols and glycol ethers, a resin and a colorant, wherein the spectral reflectance determined in the state where the ink for a ball point pen is filled into an ink reservoir has a maximum value in 500 to 520 nm, and a ratio of maximum strength/minimum strength of the spectral reflectance is 2.2 to 5.5. Further provided is a ball point pen equipped with a transparent ink reservoir charged with the ink, wherein the color of the ink can visually be identified through a part which transmits light in the ball point pen barrel.
