Tachikawa Pen Nib Spoon Pen Chrome Color No. 600 EF - Extra Fine Hard chrome. ◆ 20 pieces, free shipping Engraving: TACHIKAWA No. 600EF MADE IN JAPAN This is a popular pen nib, also included in the "4 Recommended Popular Rankings for Penmanship Practice Dip Pens." The name differs depending on the brand: ・Nikko: ◆ Saji Pen ・Tachikawa: ◆ Spoon Pen ・Zebra: ◆ Tama Pen Saji Pen (Spoon Pen Nib) Because it is hard and durable, it can draw uniform lines. It is a pen nib that can write slight variations in line thickness (thick lines, thin lines) and uniform thick lines. By laying the pen nib along the paper, you can create variations in line thickness. It is also used for drawing manga. About the pen nib manufacturer: Lion, famous for office equipment LION, also manufactured pen nibs, but they are no longer produced. They stopped manufacturing and selling pen nibs over 20 years ago, in 1996 (Heisei 8). Currently, the Japanese pen nib brands on the market are Tachikawa, Nikko, and Zebra. The Nikko brand was taken over by Tachikawa, so there are only two manufacturers: Tachikawa and Zebra. Tachikawa pen nibs are a popular brand, supported by teachers of the Japan Penmanship Study Group. There is also talk that the older ones are better in performance. The number of dip pens manufactured around 1985 (Showa 60), during the period of rapid economic growth, was 1 million gross (1 gross is 144 pieces), an astronomical figure, but they were replaced by ballpoint pens in government offices and banks along with the trends of the times. Pen nibs were made by craftsmen using machines, but it seems that they still use the same machines as before. There are fewer craftsmen like those of the past, and I have heard that the skills of the old craftsmen were higher. Also, chrome-colored pen nibs show little deterioration and still have the same performance as they did back then. I also enjoy penmanship, and I change pen nibs depending on what I am writing. Tachikawa pens are one of my favorite pen nibs.
