Three Danitrio Mikado

Recommended Posts

Realized I was carrying three Danitrio Mikado pens today and thought I'd share some pics.

 

From left to right: tame-nuri in light bengara (reddish brown) and ki-dame (yellow), irokeshidami-nuri (matte finish) in dark bengara and ki-dame, sakurakawa-nuri (cherry tree bark pattern).

 

Nibs left to right: broad, stubbish broad, and medium. All #8 nibs with ebonite feeds.

Thank you. Beautiful pens. Lucky you to own them and lucky us to see your pictures.

Love all, trust a few, do harm to none. Shakespeare

That is a beautiful grouping of pens. Danitrio seems to be the brand that most often makes my heart sing. I especially like the cherry-bark version, but the colors on the other two are beautiful.

I currently have only a Genkai Danitrio urushi pen. I also have a raw ebonite Densho. I would love another ursushi Danitrio, maybe in a Mikado size. Those are the three sizes that use an eyedropper fill with shutoff valve, which is the fill system that appeals to me.

The Sho-genkai, Junikaku, Yokozuna, and Kaijin are all also eye dropper pens from Danitrio, though far less common than the Mikado, Genkai, and Densho.

If you want less blah, blah, blah and more pictures, follow me on Instagram!

Those are truly beautiful pens you have. I realize this post is old, however I've been doing a lot of research on the Danitrio pens as I don't currently own one and was looking for a particular model and finish and stumbled upon this post. The first pen in the grouping from left to right (tame-nuri in light bengara & ki-dame) is the pen I've been looking for. The finish is absolutely stunning and gorgeous. If you don't mind me asking did you purchase this pen direct from Danitrio? I found one on ebay from Taiwan that I believe is the same with asking price of $1449. I would really like to add that pen to my collection and appreciate any and all info on the pen you may have. Thank you so much for posting this pic and giving me the opportunity to reach out.

 

Best,

Tom

Thanks for the note Tom. I live in Texas and have an AD for Danitrio, Dromgooles in Houston. They always have a few dozen for me to choose from. I have maybe 10 Danitrio pens now and am stoked by all of them. Happy hunting.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
