You guys think I have it bad, huh?
There are ten more photos like this on MTBooks Flickr page that I just found this morning. Too cool!
Review: Pilot Hi-Tec-C 0.4mm Utzuzumi Grey
Pilot Hi-Tec-C Gel Ink Pen - 0.4 mm - Yawaragi Colors - Utsuzumi Grey. Now that is a mouthful! Since the name is so long, I am going to just let JetPens describe what it means:
Pilot Japan has five Yawaragi (literally translated as being softened color) colors in their extensive Hi-Tec-C line. These beautiful, fine gel pens write in pastel colors with the same smoothness at the rest of the line. Great for works that need a lighter color touch.
Yawaragi colors include: 1 Sakura (Cherry Blossom), 1 Benifuji (Fuji-sunset red), 1 Utsuzumi (light-black calligraphy ink), 1 Bengara, and 1 Kurikawa (Chestnut).
The color translates to paper very nicely, with this grey ink looking similar to pencil lead. The standard Hi-Tec-C excellence applies, so if you are looking for some new colors, give the Yawaragi Colors a try.
