Would any one consider the vuv of the Shem to be OK?
דיוחנן - kosher rapidograph ink.... Experiences or comments pls
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...

Count me in.
ReplyDeleteI don't even see a Safek.
To me this looks like a kosher zayin, it has a real yetziah to the right as a result of the missing dio. Why is this not a zayin?
ReplyDeleteBecause to the first glance of the eye it looks like a vov. You only see the blita on the right after its magnified and studied closely. At worst it's a shailos tinok
DeletePS when you fix it you need to make sure you go from the regel up to the rosh. If you go in the other direction, you may make it worse during tikun
Deletecan you post a better image with a more straight on view?

ReplyDeletelooks like a Mordichi/Sefer Yeryim zayin, wouldn't let it go even with a tinok
ReplyDeleteBecause you are looking at a high res magnified image much larger and more detailed than the real life image.
DeleteAcc to Rav Friedlander, the only posek I got a straight answer from, you can only judge from a high res enlarged image on computer if you know how to translate it in your minds eye as to how it would look in real life
Exactly! When I receive shailas by e-mail I often downsize the image to as close to original size since enhanced sizes often change the appearance for better or worse. Sometimes I tell the person that I can't judge without seeing the original size so give guidelines to help them decide based on looking at the original.
DeleteYes but original size won't be as clear as real life. You need to find the balance, it takes a lot of experience, including how to factor in if a picture is dark or light or blurry or crooked...
DeleteYes, I'm aware and when I feel that I can't judge from an image I let the person know and in some cases may ask for a better image or different angle. I'm no Rav Friedlander but do feel confident in answering most shailos e-mailed to me.
