    אני סובר שיש להחמיר ולפסול

    there IS a Rosh!
    איני רואה שום סיבה לפסול

      Did you miss the word "lo"? (sorry I use a blackberry, I don't have hebrew fonts on my phone)

    The Tagim of ה should be fixed

      I wouldn't make a fuss with the tagin in such a ksav. However, the Mem in Shma should be fixed (the bottom right squared.)

      Based on seeing 1 Shin, I wouldn;t be surprised if he has an issue with the left rosh not being on the right side (Ari)

    כ׳ להדיא במשנת הסופר שאם יש רק רגל וקוץ בלי ראש, יש לפסול, אף שקשה לפעמים להגדיר מתי הוא באמת ראש בשיפוע ומתי הוא באמת רק קוץ.
    משו״ה, בתמונה הזו היה נדמה לי לפסול אבל משום שזה לא קל להגדיר בגלל זה שאלתי פה מה דעת אחרים בזה.
    אולי אתה טוען שבמקרה הזה אינה כרגל וקוץ בלי ראש. אבל אני לא מסכים בזה. זה ברור לי שפה יש רק גולם אחד אם קוץ קטן קטן למעלה ועוד קוץ קטן קטן בצד שמאל.

    There is absolutely a Rosh.

    First of all, just because the Regel is fat does not mean there is no Rosh. Secondly, the kotz is the corner of a ROSH!!!

    Thirdly, look at the top, the Rosh definitely protrudes to the left of the Tag.

    This is Kosher. Certainly fixable.

    You need to look at how the regel is shaped and where it attached to where the "Rosh" would be. I will delete the kotzim and post again and you will see that what is left is one golem with no discernible Rosh.

דיוחנן - kosher rapidograph ink.... Experiences or comments pls

By -
Image
I recently tried this kosher ink for my rapidograph and I am extremely pleased with it. It does not clog the nib like other kosher rapidograph inks, and it's very dark and strong. It's at least as good as the Rotring commercial grade rapidograph inks (of course these can only be used with batch numbers that have been lab tested and  approved kosher),  and in addition you do not need to add a drop of regular Sta"m ink (as per the instruction of the Shevet Halevi, which is messy and time consuming).  I was wondering if anyone else had an opinion or comments with regards to their experience with this ink...

Ink, Kosher vs. non-Kosher

By -
We all know that there is no ancient source that requires ink to be מן המותר בפיך . Possibly, as said here before, because in the olden days ink was always  מן המותר בפיך and the question was never raised. It was probably self-evident. Nowadays, no decent Rav will approve an ink which is not מן המותר בפיך  . Who was the first one to raise this question? Was it raised because of animal ingredients or because of non-kosher wine?

The OK's Hechsher on STa"M....Will it work?

By -
In today’s day and age, virtually every kosher product available to the consumer comes with a hechsher. By hechsher, I mean an official and recognised rabbinical body or agency that certifies the kashrus of a product, be it a food item or a religious article. Hechsherim play a vital role in providing consumer confidence, and something branded by a reputable kashrus agency will be considered more legitimate than a similar product that does not. The agency has rigid policies and protocols in place to ensure correct standards are met, and they are independent of the manufacturer so that there is no conflict of interest. As we have discussed on this forum previously, there is a distinct lack of official hechsherim on Sta”m products - Tefillin, Mezuzos and Sifrei Torah. Even the Vaad Mishmeres Sta”m, the oldest and most well- known rabbinic agency in the Sta”m world does not certify products. They test and ordain sofrim and magihim (examiners), offer a computer checking service (sp...
