Anyways, I am sure you all are curious with what the image to the right is all about. Well, I decided to do a review for Jet Pens because I buy them all the time to write in Japanese with. My problem is for a kanji compound like 紙 it would end up looking like 糸氏, or two kanji instead of one. So, with the fine point pens, I can write my kanji more neatly. And yes, that is a regular sheet of College-Ruled notebook paper. So, as you see, these pens write very small. Which is why I love them.
Now, I don't have the best penmanship in the world, but it does make my handwriting look neater. I actually sign all my documents and fill out all forms with a black Slicci pen now. It bothers me that I can't fit my whole name or address in a block on an application with a regular pen, and using a pencil is out of the question.
Soon, I hope to buy a brush pen to start doing calligraphy in. These pens look completely amazing and I am a lover of writing (though my handwriting is very poor). They are pretty expensive, but I consider them worth the price. I am considering buying an Akashiya MoTech pen or perhaps Pentel would still be a nice buy.
I think these pens are pretty cool. And it would be rather fun to get
back at doing calligraphy. I like this pen because of its hardness and the fact it can be broad or fine tipped. In case you are eager to learn the
kanji supplied in the image. Broad= 大字 "Daiji". Fine= 細字 "saiji/hosoji".
Another good steal for a brush set would be the Kuretake Fudegokochi Brush Pens. Here is seen to the left. Kanji supplied in this image is:
筆ごこち Fudegokochi (the name of the company, but it's like "Brush consciousness" ). 極細 Gokuboso ("Super fine"). うす墨 Ususumi
("Light ink" or similar to "grey ink" because ink is typically black).
I'll leave the rest up to you. Enjoy the information. And if you want to buy a brush pen, click here to browse.
