So I'm looking at getting some paper from hiromi paper, their rolls are very attractive.
First of all, what are your experiences with MC'ed Kozo. Keep in mind texture/color isn't an issue for me.
How's reversing folds on kozo? I had some experience with Thai unryuu, and didn't find it that good(admitedly it wasn't heavily mc'ed)
Second question would be, which kozo would you recommend, I tend to like fairly light papers as it's easier to double up a light paper ... than splitting a heavy paper:)
The ones I'm looking at are:
http://store.hiromipaper.com/r-012sekis ... mroll.aspx
http://store.hiromipaper.com/r-013sekishuthinroll.aspx
At 55USD per 5mx1m roll, that's 10USD for a 1x1m sheet, which is quite decent.(22USD shipping too for the us)
any other recs?
Kozo recommendations?
Re: Kozo recommendations?
I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure thai unryu is generally 100% kozo... i think they are different names for the same thing
Re: Kozo recommendations?
Yes, but kozo paper is made of more uniform fibers, unryu got these big chunks of bark in it.

Re: Kozo recommendations?
Wow, so weird. I just got a roll of kozo paper. I must say, it folds wonderfully. It's JUST like sekishu, but I got this roll: http://www.dickblick.com/items/12952-9000/
It's 18 inches by 30 feet or 45 CM by 9.1 meters. It was only 13 dollars... I love it!
Well I hope I helped, but it's super good paper in my opinion

I would rather fail trying than fail without trying....
