I was super worried this channel had gone dormant after not posting for a while. I even snooped on the IG account to see if there were any recent posts. 😅 I recently found this channel and cant stop watching. Love the format, the information, and personality. Thanks David! !Keep it up!
Naw...not going anywhere. Was just a bit under the weather last week. Thanks for watching.
Thats a really heartfelt comment, Willy Fisterbottom!
@@FigbootonPens Thats good to hear. Glad you're better and back at it!
Thanks for this great showcase David! I've known of the Taccia brand but had seen/heard very little about them. Color me Impressed, & that Autumn Sunset has me wondering what I'm gonna do for rent money! LOL
So glad to see ya post😊
I love the texture!! ty for the video
Great video, what an amazing opportunity to see all of these works of art together in such detail! To get a better idea of the scale of the pens you review, I'd love to see a standard pencil or ballpoint pen be included in the size comparisons some time. Thanks for your awesome videos, have a great day :D
Incredibly beautiful pens, David. Expensive, but worth every penny!
Really missed the vids, but thanks for the super cool review of 10 cool pens!! I’m now looking for a deal on the Wajima Spring Willow, just love that green, and the intentionally placed “random” pebble. I love how each pen is a unique piece of art. And equally appreciate all you do to bring us these great vids!!
The name Taccia comes from Italian, so the cc is pronounced like a ch in English, and it means something like "bad reputation" or an accusation/indictment, and comes from the verb tacciare, to accuse/charge (with a crime). It's probably a mistake by the Japanese founders who I assume were misled by another Italian word, tacere, to be quiet/to fall silent/to stop/to be still/etc., which can be conjugated as taccia, but only in the conjunctive or imperative. The conjunctive requires context, so the name of the company would be an imperative "be quiet!" 😂
You see this kind of thing a lot when Japanese companies try to use foreign languages without understanding them.
もし、Tacciaの偉い人がこのコメント欄見てるなら、これ伝えたい：
会社名はイタリア語で「黙れ」って意味なんですよ。
Are you sure it comes from the Italian?
@@Danny.._ Thanks Danny! I had to look up Taccia since my Italian from college years is a little rusty. I agree with you…I looked it up on two sources. Lots of things to learn here on my new fountain pen journey.
@@riktik73of course. It's very Italian .
Sabimidori is one of my favourite inks! Great choice.
I’m sorry you hot sick, but glad you’re better. I’m so ready for there to be fewer germs getting passed around.
These pens are all admirable, yet I don’t find I want any of them. It’s actually really nice to see pens I enjoy viewing, but that still don’t tempt me. Thank you for showing them off!
New to the fountain pen world (have had various other stationary issues over the years 😂). Incredible craftsmanship on these pens. Really enjoying learning all the different facets of the fountain pen. Thanks for the video.
That’s quite the collection! I like taccia for their creative techniques
Great review! The Winter Blizzard is my fav.
I liked the spring willow in the miyabi kaga and the silver birch in the kaga wajima.
Thank you
I've been to the Kaga domain, during a bicycle trip mostly on the west coast (or nearby) of Japan.
All are so lovely!
So beautiful! 😍
Those are amazing. I've been wondering if they arrived through some mail service to you and if so what they were insured for. Gave me the thought that to return them you should do so in person and go to Japan so we can see production facilities!
That Autumn Monsoon works for me!:)
I could see myself getting into pens for the inks in the same way Im into knives for the steels.
I keep a txt document of things you've shown that really interest me and the ratio of inks to pens is about 10:1.
These pens are all beautiful. My favorite finish is the Winter Blizzard.
As for the Kaga line, there should have been the King of Pen nib. The other nibs remind me of the 1911 and 1911s sizes. That all the varieties of Sailor nibs are available is a bonus. I wish other manufacturers such as Pilot would do the same.
As for eyedropper fill, i have done so with my KOP that has a black ebonite body. I had no issues and there was no staining of the metal oarts on the section.
Great selection of pens, David. Did you get the entire collections for yourself or are they on loan?
Those are beautiful pens! May I ask where you purchased them?
Hi! New subscriber as of today…just received my first Sailor Shikori fountain pen the Grateful Crane from Japan. Embarking on my fountain pen journey now and looking forward to learning a lot on here. I’m looking at the Leornado pens as I have small hands and I didn’t know this Sailor would be tiny…if anyone has any suggestions for a heavier weighted pens it would be much appreciated and any inks brands anyone can recommend. Thank you so much!

ouch ouch ouch
😂
Shocking prices!
For hand-crafted Urushi pens, the prices for these pens align with other similar pens from different manufacturers. While these are certainly luxury offerings, the pricing is not out of line in my opinion.
@@FigbootonPens No quarrel if tops of $880 for Miyabi Kaga and $650 for Kaga Wajima. ✒✒
Yeah, the nibs are a size too small for both of them. King of Pens and Pro Gear/1911L 21k would have suited them better.
Although the artistry may be very high, I find the colors choices to be looking childishly.
I'm like fiber nibs but because Japanse nibs trend to have feedback already, I prefer western fine and extra fine nibs.
So these are not for me.
Wow! Love the music nib
