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.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
