Love your videos and content in general! You’re presence on ‘the Tokyo Inklings’ podcast adds depth and great insight for us located in the West (ie us Canadians, etc). I also love the way you show us Japanese culture and the quality of your videos is wonderful. Thank you!!!
So much to see here! Plus CY sightings... And Nagasawa Pen Store and Honke Shibata unagi restaurant are now on my bucket list. Thank you for another totally enjoyable video.
7:37 what an incredible and lovely haul!!! I’m in love with all those beautiful custom fountain pens!!! I literally would have to pack a separate bag so when I visit the Tokyo Pen show I would make sure I would have enough space to bring back!! Thank you so much for sharing your lovely hall. 😊❤
The idea of having a mini-notebook to be able to try out different paper is awesome! And the size seems functional too. Thank you for so many little gems!
Need more information please! I love the "suedy" Pen Landing Pad. When I put "Shinari Leather "Pen Landing Pad" I don't find it - just leather goods that have mazda leather goods! And do you have a video on glass pens? I've never seen one that has a broad or 1.5 wide nib I'm a newbie to Fountain Pens!) and I would love to know more about them and where to get them...Thanks - Your videos are wonderful!
Thank you! The guy is a really small company and I think this may have been his first time selling stuff. If you go to the videos tab of my channel and scroll back, I have a vid on Hanabi glass pens (where I get my stubs) and one called How to use a Japanese Glass Pen. There is also a “shorts” video on glass pen care
Thanks for sharing your visit to this pen show. It’s always great to see these locations and the unique items. I especially liked the micro box with the cat. Very cute!
Thank you for another wonderfully informative video. I’m Googling and researching while I watch. It’s wonderful to have your pen world shared with us. Also, you are so kind with your giveaways. I’m delighted with everything I’m learning!
I got a ProSke in Antique Gold at the SF pen show. So pretty. It is my first demonstrator i usually avoid then, but this one just worked. Thank you again.
I was so happy to see a video from you, and I was not disappointed. This was so interesting. The Osaka tour was delightful. What a beautiful city. Thank you for taking us along. 💞
I spend most of my days on TH-cam looking for your videos, Inky. I’m very happy when they come up. Especially when you spill ink everywhere. It’s a whole thing for me 😌
Wow the giveaways are really nice! I’m not much on instagram ,but for this i will make an effort 😉 I’ve missed your TH-cam videos, glad to have you back!
Enjoyed this video so much! That pen landing pad is an awesome find! Thank you for featuring Deep Aqua! I’ve seen their works before but never knew the people behind them. Now I need to find more of their merchandise.
Another lovely video!! Thank you for showing off all the lovely things >w< That black skeleton is stunning, and Osaka looks so good...! I still drool so hard to DeepAqua things, as a big fan of Mini5 system (thank god, it's available in EU because of filofax... and you can punch the paper you import, hehe)
I’m just continuously and vicariously living through your pen show trips. The QR code comment made me snort. Oh how I wish we I could buy all the green caplesses in Australia. Thanks for another great upload.
@@InkyRocks they aren’t hard to get. I have two. But I can’t seem to find a green one. I’ll have watch your “ordering from Japan” video again. I’m looking forward to the Melbourne show. It will be my first.
You just plop that glass pen down with no worries, lol. Beautiful architecture and area! Not that I know much about it-around my town everything looks similar. That’s why the videos are so appreciated. The details of the pens, paper, and ink bottle designs, and thoughtfulness of design and functional is so impressive. Thought big bear spouting water was pretty unique too. Ohhh-are you going to tell us about the nickname-inky stinky?
So glad you liked all the different parts--I'm never sure how much detail to put in. I was editing late at night to just try to get this vid posted and I was pretty punchy. I thought inky stinky sounded hilarious!
Your videos always make me smile - you introduce items I don't normally see elsewhere and nearly all have a "cool factor" or are very utile - like that leather pen rest/tray! Ink stains would only add unique character to it over time. :-) I like "DeepAQua's" blotting papers, but would hesitate to mess them up with real ink spills!
Yes I agree-ink stains would be cool hahaha! I have so much of her blotting paper but sometimes I do hesitate to use it and use my plain stuff. Glad I make you smile-thanks!
Aloha Alesa! A well done video showcasing all the neat things. Is there ever an end to inks? Nice that you also included some sightseeing and even dining (unagi is probably my favorite food, but either expensive or hard to find!) Awesome as always. Mahalo, Thomas
Regarding the shapeshifting pen: I was going to bring up the fact it was reminiscent of the Issey Miyake bags. I thought I finally had something nifty to add to the conversation…but you already knew what was up. You’re just too cool. I love it! 😉 By the way, I appreciate your continued generosity! (Now, over to IG I go… 👋)
CY has been on a US tour. He was in Houston grinding nibs for Dromgooles, in Goulet’s podcast in Virginia then Nee York and back out to San Francisco! Thanks for another great video! Always love the extra stuff like the food and city clips. Its almost as if we took the trip with you.
Thanks for uploading this nice video. I was particularly interested in the Nagazawa pen store. Unfortunately, when I visited my son who used to live and work in Osaka (several years ago) I did not know about the shop and missed out on the experience! He has since moved to the US, so it will be some time probably before I manage to get a trip out to Osaka and remedy this lapse! I was also intrigued by the Pilot EF pen you bought: this must write exceedingly fine. As a 'Western writer' the thinnest Japanese nib I use is a Platinum soft fine, which is great for correcting typed up manuscripts and similar. The EF Pilot looks gorgeous, so perhaps I should take the plunge and get one.
Yes, for fine writing, I enjoy a Japanese EF (when I write really small). The weird thing is I enjoy just about every width of nib except obliques! I also like Platinum’s EF but it’s a nail-very hard (which I enjoy on occasion hahaha!). Hopefully you can make it out here one day soon!
So interesting about the Japanese and European brands. Meanwhile, here I am in Europe doing my best to source Japanese pens. 😄 Thanks as always for a really interesting look into pen shows and your hauls!
Isn't that funny? We all want the stuff that is harder to get. There is definitely a group of (mainly men) here in Japan that really revere high end Western pens. Glad you found it interesting Heidi!
Yes, that’s a bummer. You’d have to order from Japan. Sometimes Shigure Carrie’s some. Hopefully more western companies will import them or glass makers will start making them.
Hey Inky my family is going to Japan around christmas time, is there any brick and mortar FP stores you can recommed that sell tono & lims (especially shokido) or taiwanese inks (ink institute, lennon tool bar ect)? Once again, thanks for the video 💖
For Tono & Lims-Okamotoya. For Taiwanese inks-Eslite (Taiwan company). All I’ve seen of Shokido is at shows. We end up having shows about every other month so you may want to check for that. (Depending on when you come in December-there may be a Wagner show!)
Lovely to see all the goodies you added from Osaka. I have the opportunity to go to the SF Pen Show. If I go, how would I find CY? (I'm sorry to say I don't know who he is; I'm still relatively new to my fountain pen hobby. I'd love to say "Inky Stinky" sent me.)
hahaha! That's hilarious--thanks so much! There should be a map/list of all the booths at the show. He would probably be under Tokyo Station Pens. Though I have not been to the SF Pen Show before, I hear it is awesome and that is your best chance to get stuff from Japan.
Great you found something that works for you. I found the Kakimori nib to be best for swatching-I couldn’t control the width very well and it was a bit too imprecise for me. It’s definitely the winner on being less breakable for sure!
@@InkyRocks how long before I noticed the post. I just filled one of those Tomoe River notebooks with daily journal entries and started on a second. Can't find them for sale over here in the states at any of the places I shop, so I think you were very lucky.
@@Merlin012001 hahaha! I absolutely had no clue what you were talking about! And 1 hour is definitely fast considering I don't post very often! They should be coming back out with the Sanzen TR paper soon. Hopefully you can get one of those. Most people don't really see a difference ( I felt some slight ones) and some like it better. I think Sanzen also did some further tweaks to their process.
I’m so upset that your videos never end up in my feed anymore. What gives? YT needs to get their act together. I LOVE all the cute stationery in Japan. Those sorts of things are so difficult to come across in the US, especially those blotting papers. I’ve never seen them before.
I'm not a demo pen person, but I love the idea of using the word "skeleton " I'm assuming that it translates closer to "girders " and not human skeleton. Japanese speakers confirm or deny this please?
Ugh my never ending debate between just adoring everything about Japanese pens except the nib size, because I love colored/ shading inks and European nibs are bigger but the QC isn't as good. What I'm saying is I have too many pens.
Hahaha! Actually when I want a fat nib I just get a zoom or B (you can get BB or C on some pens) and just get it stubbed. There is no such thing as too many.
Adjusted subtitles and translations are up! Let me know if there is a language you would like to see.
OMG, all the Pilot Capless pens! I wish they would sell more of the colors in the US
It looked like those boxes of colored pencils all lined up in a row!
I love that your husband went with you and you showed parts of the city as well. Living vicariously through your Japan eyes.
Awesome! Thanks so much for the feedback--I'm never sure about including "other stuff."
That suedy pen rest looks very useful, much nicer than staining another dish towel! No dish towel is sacred!
hahaha! I can always count on you to come up with some innovative way to mess with our hobby!
Thank you for the virtual tour! Nice to be able to "visit" the Osaka Pen Show from New Zealand.
Awesome-glad you liked it. New Zealand is on my bucket list, but probably not so much for pens!
Love this! Architecture + pen spaces + ink play = fabulous inky video. Thanks!
Oh awesome-glad you liked it. I always wonder how much “extra stuff” I should put in!
Japan is the mecca for pen and stationery lovers (like me!) One day, one day, one day...!
Nice to see a little of the cool city as well.
It really is. I’m so fortunate but my wallet isn’t hahaha! Hope you can make it out here some day soon!
I love your channel. A lot of variety in activity, content, and coverage. Thank you for the channel.

Thank you so much! And for calling it wonderful!!
Fabulous. Thanks for that.

Thank you so much Michael!
Another lovely time watching your adventures. I hope you are well and caught up on your sleep.
hahaha! Thank you so much This channel keeps me busy!
that unagi restaurant looks amazing! and the pens too! thanks for showing us this wonderful trip!
Thanks so much! I’m glad you enjoyed the non pen parts too!
Ah, so glad to see Mini/Micro5 popularity taking off even more! It's been one of my favorite accessories for about a year now.
Oh awesome! It’s really handy!
Thank you for letting us travel vicariously through you!
So glad you enjoyed that part. I always wonder how much non pen stuff to include!
Your voice is so relaxing and obviously your videos are top notch when it comes to knowledge and presentation
Thank you so much--glad you find them relaxing. Watching vids should be fun and relaxing😊

I know-me too! Hopefully in a few months once we get past this uptick in Covid that we are going thru
Wonderful video. Thanks for the 'trip' to Osaka. I'd love to go in person one day.
Thanks so much Rick-hope you can make it out there one day!

@@InkyRocks i look forward to seeing it!
I got a ProSke in Antique Gold at the SF pen show. So pretty. It is my first demonstrator i usually avoid then, but this one just worked. Thank you again.
Those are gorgeous! I just think the extra "spin" they put on with small touches really makes the demonstrator look good.
Loved this ... cheers!
Thank you Dave!
P.S. Oh! Yoseka just posted a podcast with CY! I'm going to check it out now. Great timing. :)
Awesome! I've been busy so posted this later than I wanted, but it looks like the timing is great!
Always love the production value put out inky stinky! Great job!
Thank you so much! I may have to change my channel name to inky stinky😎
Love these special finds! Thank you for sharing all the fun details.
They really are fun to hunt down. It's one of the reasons I do so many giveaways--it's fun!
Is a pleasure to watch like always
Thank you so much as always Hector!
Thanks for all the virtual tours. I really liked the finial on the Nagasawa here. Looks great. 😁
Thanks so much Sunil!💝

I really enjoy the setup for getting all “suedy.”
Hahaha! It was late and I got punchy!
I love all your choices 🥰 TFS!
Me too hahaha! Thanks so much!
Thank you for another amazing video! I can't wait to meet Nagasawa in person at SF penshow.
Thank you so much! I'm so jealous--I hear it is a fabulous show!
Wow the giveaways are really nice! I’m not much on instagram ,but for this i will make an effort 😉 I’ve missed your TH-cam videos, glad to have you back!
Thank you so much--I've been busy with other "non-pen stuff." I don't use IG much either, but they have a message function and TH-cam doesn't.
Enjoyed this video so much! That pen landing pad is an awesome find! Thank you for featuring Deep Aqua! I’ve seen their works before but never knew the people behind them. Now I need to find more of their merchandise.
I love my pen landing pad! She really does make cool stuff! I end up seeing her several times a year because of the shows! Thank you!
Loved the video! I wish we had pen shops like these in Australia
Well, this IS Japan and every town has a stationery store--it's part of life here! Thanks!
I have SEVERE FOMO from watching this. Good job as always.
Hahaha! Thank you! I see you feel my pain…😂
This was a lot of fun to watch. I hope to visit these places after Japan opens for tourism again.
Thank you! Hopefully you can come out soon!
@@InkyRocks And you have a standing invitation to come to Taiwan. I'd be more than happy to show you around.

😍 cuteness overload! Since when are you concerned about splattering ink hahaha. Missed you glad your back
Well, at least it’s all contained in the landing pad! 😂
You got it!!!
That Gearske black nib is awesome 👍
It is-I love the dark color!
You just plop that glass pen down with no worries, lol.
Beautiful architecture and area! Not that I know much about it-around my town everything looks similar. That’s why the videos are so appreciated.

Very nice >>>>>> Thank you

He’s been a busy guy. Glad you enjoyed the “variety” vid hahaha! Thanks
That "unknown" ink is really cool which started as nothing while writing and really dark half hour later 😊
Yes! And it has the added benefit of being water proof!

Good show inky.
