節まで頑張ればほぐせるということで
公称の穂の長さが
特大　11㎝
なんですが、節までの長さなので実際に使える長さはもっと短いかと思います。

こちら、糊付けの竹筆でして、最初の扱い方も載せておきます。
まず、50〜60℃のお湯で軽く揉むぐらいで糊を落とす、この際、竹筆は小筆のように消耗品ですので、あまり激しく扱わず、落とす程度でお願いします。
さらにこの時の温度が高いと少し柔らかくなるので、そちらの方がよろしい時は温度で調整してください。温めるほど柔らかくなるそうです。

先と腹を使うとまた別の表現になる竹筆をぜひお試しください！

This extra-large bamboo brush is crafted by finely splitting the tip of a thick bamboo shaft, offering a raw, bold writing experience unlike traditional brushes.
The official bristle length is listed as 11 cm, but since this measurement includes the section up to the bamboo node, the actual usable length is somewhat shorter. (In the second photo, this brush is the one on the far left.)

As this is a glue-set brush, a bit of preparation is required before first use:
Soak the tip in hot water (about 50–60°C) and gently rub it to remove the glue. Please be careful not to handle it too roughly, as bamboo brushes are consumables, much like small calligraphy brushes.
Higher water temperatures will soften the bristles further, so feel free to adjust depending on your preferred texture.

With its wide tip and solid body, this brush allows for highly expressive strokes using both the tip and the belly.
Perfect for large-scale works, avant-garde calligraphy, or artists seeking something truly unconventional — we encourage you to experience the unique character of this bamboo brush.
