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.
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.
What an absolutely beautiful nib holder! It’s well balanced and, for my own hands, has quite a comfortable grip. Others may not agree, but I will say that after using it with the Potari ink (blue) and seeing the slight stains after using it is beautiful. I really cannot wait to use it with a wide variety of inks so that it has a multi-color finish, like a finely aged patina. I would love to see a dedicated case for this that accommodates different nibs.
Only because you were out of the brass nibs. That’ll be next time. Otherwise very happy with my purchase.
Love it.
