Found in a bag of dip pens and nibs from a thriftstore, GuSho branded metal and plastic things that fit in a dip pen

while thrifting I bought a bag full of random dip pens and nips including these GuSho nips and I can't figure out what they are or how to use them.

they fit into a dip pen, but i dont know how they would hold ink, maybe they are for etching but I would not know how that would work. if you push on the back a tiny metal needle/pin comes out but you can't keep it out without pushing on the back wich makes it very awkward to draw with, if you let go they spring back inside. there are many different sizes all with the same mechanism

These are my first attempts at sashiko freehand. They will become the pockets on a pair of pants I'm making from some thrifted duvet covers
