Went out to Kobe to look for autumn-style kintamani, but the streets were already colored with fall. Though every store had plenty of kintamani lined up, they all looked the same, and I couldn't find anything special. You might think kintamani aren't a big deal, but as a soldering technician who uses them daily in shot put practice, I'm quite picky about them. It's only natural—each one has to be unique. After visiting store after store, I finally found it: a kintamani with a distinctive vibe, displayed in a luxurious case at the last shop I entered. Its arrogant, condescending expression left a strong impression. Though slightly pricey, I loved its atmosphere. Paired with my usual soft potted petunias, it's perfect for eggshell crafts. Tried it right away in shot put—the feel in hand wasn't soothing at all, but rather aggressive, like a cold glassy gaze as if I'd used it forever. This one's great. All the effort was worth it. Whoops, whoops, it's summer, baby☆.
