ZEBRA Surari 3C ball point pen review.

Surari 3C or 4C is multi-pen of Surari.
The Surari ball point pen is using emulsion ink, this ink is figuring smooth, bright color.
But, It has long time to dry on coated paper.

It`s design is just look like Clip-on multi.... I can`t find
any figure in this pen. I wish slim version of this pen launch....
The design is too common.

The sliver color logo is printed on clip.
Logo design is similar with Surari.

The grip is made of rubber, and I think this grip is fat version of Surari
grip. Quite disappointed...

You can use 3 or 4 color of Surari in one pen, but I recommend just buy
Surari single color version.

Pentel SMASH mechanical pencil review.

Pentel Smash is one of steady seller of pentel graph pencil.
It`s name was Q1000 in circa 80~90`s but at this time name is changed to Smash.
A point of difference of Q1000 and Smash is brilliance of grip, but it`s almost same.
Smash has three color, Black, Gray, and Blue gray.
I have Gray color now.

Tip and grip is in a one body. In center of this pencil, has degree indicator, and logo.
On the logo, you can see black clip.

The red color logo is printed on plastic body.
The rotring X00 series is same printing style(black body and red logo printing.)
If you wouldn`t rub this logo, it will not be erase.

I think some of people know that this clip is same as Graph1000.
Rectangular form clip, and made of brass.

Eraser and nob.
Eraser is white color. The past, this eraser was had green color and also had
cleaner pin, but you can see on this picture, the cleaner pin is gone. I can`t guess
Pentel`s an intention. Without cleaner pin, it`ll be very uncomfortable if the pencil lead
stuck on inside of sleeve.

The nob design is very unique. It is like spring I think.

Degree Indicator. It has 8 degrees(HB B 2B 4H 3H 2H H F)

This square dual grip is characteristic of Smash.
It is really interesting feature, but I think in graph pencil, the metal grip like rotring600,
these grip is most suitability for graph pencil. However I don`t say the dual grip is not
suitability for graph pencil.
Also Graph1000, Graph Gear1000 is using dual grip like this.

4mm sleeve is for graph.
10 knock, 0.5cm turn lead out.

This pencil is my second 1000Yen Pentel graph pencil.
I used lots of Pentel graph pencils(P205, Graph1000, PG5....)
Smash is quite good quality pencil I think. It is also good for graph, and common writing.

Monami SUPER GEL-Q review.

Monami is famous stationery manufacturer in Korea.
The one of new product line, Super Gel-Q is gel pen which have quick dry ink.
When you write this pen on paper, the ink will dry in only 3 seconds. This is pretty interesting feature
because other gel pen, such as Uni Signo, Pilot Hi-Tec-C, etc..... these gel ink is take quite long time to
dry, but Super Gel-Q is not.

When I saw this pen first, I immediately thought the Uni-ball Signo DX.
You can find a point of sameness with Signo DX. For example, similar rubber
grip design, and logo printing. I can`t conclude that this pen is copy model of
Signo DX, but it`s true that this pen look like Signo DX.

SUPER GEL-Q is printed on plastic barrel. Next to the logo,
there is another printing 'Quick dry 3times faster.', which mean, ink is fast-drying.

Grip is rubber grip. If you see this dot design on grip,
you can find similar point with Signo DX.

I said this pen is using quick drying ink, more faster drying than other gel pen.
I wrote some letter on the paper(well...... you can fell this ink quick drying on coating
paper. On normal paper, all gel ink take same time to drying.). 3seconds later I wrote it,
the ink was completely dried.

I think this gel pen is very useful in daliy life.

파버카스텔 연필, 색연필의 SV란 무엇인가

파버카스텔의 연필, 색연필을 보면 위의 사진과 같이 SV란 글자를 보셨을겁니다.

대부분 이 SV의 의미가 무엇인지 모르시는데, 이 SV가 붙어있다는 것은 SV공법을 이용하여

제작되어진 연필이란 뜻입니다.

SV공법은 파버카스텔에서 개발하여 파버카스텔의 연필에만 사용되고 있습니다.

SV공법이란 연필제조과정에서 연필심 전면에 본딩을 하여 나무와 연필심이 완벽하게 접착되도록하여

일반 연필들에서 보이던 연필심이 나무에서 빠지는 경우를 방지하는 기술이라고 할 수 있습니다.

원래의 연필들도 기본적인 본딩을 하지만, SV 공법과 같이 연필심의 전면에 본딩을 하지 않았습니다.

게다가 싸구려 연필들은 이 본딩조차 제대로 되있지 않아서 종종 깎다보면 연필심이 가출을 했었는데,

파버카스텔의 SV공법은 전면본딩을 하여 이러한일이 없게 하였습니다.

SV공법은 1960년대 파버카스텔에서 개발하였습니다.

SV는 라틴어의 secura(영어로 secure, safe와 같은 의미)란 단어에서 따왔습니다.

이 공법에 의해 연필을 떨어뜨리거나 깎을때 연필심이 나무에서 빠지거나 부러지지것을 방지해줍니다.

이와 비슷하게 스테들러에서도 연필심에 전면본딩을 하여 제작하고 있는데, 딱히 스테들러에서는

이렇게 제작하는거에 별다른 이름이나 명칭을 두지 않고 심 전면에 본딩을 했다고 설명합니다.
