Kakimori Dip Nib -Does it perform better than Pilot iro-utsushi nibs?
Переглядів 27419 годин тому
Out of dissatisfaction with the performance on my two Pilot Iro-Utsushi F and M nibs, I invested in the Kakimori Dip Nib. I was already satisfied with the Kakimori Brass and Stainless Steel nibs. So far, so good. Time will tell… #kakimori #pilotiro-utsushi #watermanserenityblue IG @pennednpainted ua-cam.com/video/cykA9EOgX-I/v-deo.htmlsi=_ZPd_4C0FsmiCzHB

    Murasaki Shikibu was a 10th-century lower-class aristocratic woman who served at court and as a tutor to the then young empress. She is also the author of Japan's oldest novel, The Tale of Genji. (The oldest in the world?). She was a very intelligent woman, and was well versed in Chinese poetry, which was only available to boys at the time, and can be seen in The Tale of Genji.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask me. I love the culture of the Heian period and the aristocrats in which she lived. The Tale of Genji is a long love story centered around a prince named Hikaru Genji, but it is very profound and makes you think not only about love, but also about life and the happiness of women in those days when polygamy was the norm. Of course, the original is written in old Japanese, so I read it in manga form, as a Japanese person would! Haha.

It was customary at the time not to reveal one's real name except in close relationships, so it was a common name at court. Murasaki was probably taken from Murasaki no Ue, the most famous heroine of The Tale of Genji, and Shikibu was the title of her father, brother, or husband.

    This is helpful. I'm trying a new ink and this is a way to make sure the old one won't taint the colors! Thank you.

    I have no idea what I have just watched or what is happening in this short but I feel weirdly comforted and at peace. You, my good ma'am (I assume you are a ma'am) have just gotten yourself a new subscriber.

      Yes, I am a ma’am. I enjoy sharing beautiful inks in fabulous pens. Just a minute a day to share some joy, and in your case, peace. Thank you for your appreciation and support. Check back daily during the month of June for more. I appreciate you!

    Did some flushing myself today and filled a new Namisu pen (photos on my IG). My fingers still look a little crazy, but I'll survive. May get some pen flush, syringe and a bulb syringe. 😁🩷👍

      I love inky fingers, but those flushing tools will make your (pen) life so much easier. What’s your IG? I’ll check it out! I am @pennednpainted, but don’t post consistently.

    This was helpful. I’ve wondered if I needed to add pen flush to my supplies. Thanks. I hope it doesn’t stain the other pen!

    • @MarcellHobbs
      @MarcellHobbs 17 днів тому

      I hope it doesn’t stain the other pen, but I will do a thorough cleaning if necessary. I did email Nahvular about the discrepancy on my box and bottle labels and informed them of the staining ink. I am using it on other paper as an ink study and will do a chromatography strip with a comparison to other inks. 🤷🏼‍♀️ We’ll see. Thanks for your input.

      @@MarcellHobbs I recently had to contact Nahvalur because my horizon’s piston mechanism broke. They are sending me a wrench and directions to fix it. I hope I can. Karyna had a video showing it so I’ll watch hers again and hope for the best. They were responsive to my email at least!

    • @MarcellHobbs
      @MarcellHobbs 17 днів тому

      @FranM6179 I’m sure you can achieve this! I haven’t seen that video, but will look it up. I did receive and email reply this morning from Nahvular regarding the label mishap. I then replied about the starting of the ink. I’ll probably receive a response tomorrow ☝🏻

    Nice inks and pens, although a little confusing with the wrong box? 😇🩷🙏🙌

      I know! I almost deleted that portion of the video, but decided you could use some humor! 🤣 I’m writing morning scripture with that pen/ink now. It is still showing up as gray with shading but minimal shimmer. I’m going to flush and re-ink the pen today. Thanks for enjoying along with me.

    That's a gorgeus ink, and I fell in love with the pen, too!

    • @MarcellHobbs

      Yes! This pairing was a last minute decision, but I’m so pleased with it. B nibs showcase shimmer so well. Thanks so much for watching.

    Two pretty new pens! I especially like the quartz-looking one and that orchid ink. 👍🏻🖊️

    • @MarcellHobbs
      @MarcellHobbs 18 днів тому

      Yes! I am anxious to experience another ink in this pen, and this ink in another pen. I’m glad I didn’t do a full fill. The Orchid Flower ink will appear in my LMZ Angel Skin as soon as I write out the Noodler’s Black Swan English Roses. Thanks for enjoying along with me.

      I was totally surprised at its beauty! I was totally unaware of this pen until I accidentally (while browsing 😂) discovered it. I’m anxious to try another ink. Maybe one with red to bring out the red sparkles! 💖 Thanks for enjoying along with me!

    That looks great. I’m retired from teaching full time (after 34 years). I had a similar struggle with lesson plan books and created my own from B5 notebooks for the last 10 years I was in the classroom. Drawing out the monthly pages was always a summer task for me and I inevitably made a mistake on at least one of them! The Sterling Ink one looks like a good one!

    • @MarcellHobbs

      Congratulations on your retirement. I start my 28th year in August. Since all formal lesson plans are required to be submitted digitally, this is perfect for me, scheduled IEPs, etc.
