About Kakimori:
Located in downtown Tokyo, Japan, Kakimori boasts a deep connection with its neighborhood and customers. They value the importance of storytelling and the joy associated with handcrafted goods and handwriting. They emphasize a state of coexistence with the four major elements — air, water, earth, and soil — and employ these ideals in each of their products. Their flagship store is well known and loved for their custom fountain pen ink and custom notebook services, which lets customers mix and assemble their own unique tools for writing.
This is a nice alternative to a glass dip pen but still a bit pricey. I like that this fits a standard size holder so I did not pair mine with a kakimori specific one.
It reakky pays to take the time to learn what this nib can do and how to use it.
Such a beautiful and unique way to use ink and experiment with ink properties. Not cheap, but I think it is worth it if you want to spend time appreciating the inks you own.
Great for swatching ink and the variation in lines is great as well.
Does feel softer than the stainless version, mostly wider and less crisp than stainless. Over all stainless wins in my book as they both can create extra wide strokes when laid down on the side of the nib.
