Private buyer looking for a super mehudar Torah

By -
I have a private collector who is looking for a super mehudar Sefer Torah - the very best tav, the most hiddurim etc - and he is willing to pay top dollar for it.

If any of you have something to offer, please email me with an official proposition. He needs to buy it officially, from a real company or professional sofer and the offer must be done in writing, with all details about the Torah, like number of lines, and of course, the final price (if the Torah is in Europe, with VAT included).

He is flexible about the size and ksav.

This is quite urgent, so if any of you have a special Torah like this, email me asap at ykmusicblog@gmail.com

    For him to get a "supper mehudar sefer torah" it would be proper that he pays from the beginning of the writing instead of purchasing a near completed sefer torah as explained in Shulchan Aruch Yoreh 270.

      I just reviewed the above shulchan aruch even if one letter needs to be corrected or finished he is mekayem the mitzvah. There may be some shitos that muvchar is to order the torah and be zocheh in the klaf etc but that is not shulchan aruch.
      by the way if you do buy the klaf and have the sofer write for you, you must pay the sofer every time same day as he asks for money.

    If it is a private collector, maybe he means Hiddurim in an artistic way, more like the Esrog ?

    This is from the sefer Nahar Mitzrayim 270:4 where he clearly writes that one if they cannot commission the writing of a sefer torah from scratch, they should make sure to have the end words left undone.

    היכיא, דלא איפשר ליה לצוות לסופר לכתוב לו מחדש על שמו.
    מאיזה סיבה שתהיה. לפחות ישתדל לקנות ס"ת מיד הסופר שישאיר
    לו איזה תיבות בתחילת הס"ת או בסופו. בלתי כתיבה. ושיכתכס הקוגה
    הוא בידו.

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?

Question to Yosef Chaim B

By -
Thank you for commenting on my ink article. In your comment you stated: "Many poskim disagree... Many rishonim have clearly stated the use of our ingredients." Would you please be kind enough to teach us (so I can include it in the article) which Poskim and what exactly and where did they say that the עפצים וקנקנתום  type of ink is preferable over good quality דיו עשן  that does not fail? We are not interested in biased פילפולים , or in those who said that  דיו עשן is not being used because it fails easily or because it was not known how to make good quality דיו עשן.  Nor are we interested in those who said to use  עפצים וקנקנתום וגומא ואין לשנות when they discussed specifically the עפצים וקנקנתום type of ink. We are interested to find out where and who (if any) said explicitly, based on sources, that the  עפצים וקנקנתום  type of ink is preferable over good quality דיו עשן , even when there is  דיו עשן  of good quality that does not ...
