Kuretake : Fude Pen : Nihon-Date Kabura : No.55

This double ended brush pen has a hard brush tip and a soft brush tip to make lettering, outlining and inking illustrations as simple as possible. The soft brush tip is more flexible than a normal tip making it easier to create thick or thin strokes, while the hard brush tip is stiffer and allows for a greater degree of control. It is filled with water-soluble dye ink.

Fude pens are a type of brush pen used traditionally for Japanese calligraphy but are a great tool for many artists. The brush pens either have brush tips made with brush fibers or fiber/foam tips that mimic a brush shape. They are roughly the size of normal marker pens making them convenient to travel with and easy to pack away.
