Pilot Kakuno Fountain Pen, Clear Barrel, Medium Nib (10822)

Just Get it, hands down “The best first fountain Pen”

Other than not pin on the cap, there's everything good about it. Writes smooth like butter. I didn't know that I write that well, of course because of this pen.

I recently bought this pen and this a great pen design wise and utility wise , the only gripe was the tripod grip on the pen, but its fine as the pen targets beginners

Pilot Kakuno is one of the cheaper pens I own. However, its one of the best writing pens. Its smooth, gives proper control on your writing, light weight, etc. Simple, elegant and close to perfect pen

I didn’t think it was worth buying since I was so happy with the throw away fountain pen they make. But this pen is amazing! So smoooth you need only the faintest of pressure. Love it. Looking for similar but in a shorter body.

The pen itself is sturdy and the demonstrator body looks great. The nib is too scratchy, even for a Japanese extra fine. I’m not talking about a decent amount of feedback; it actually cuts the paper as I write. A bit of smoothing on a micro mesh helped to stop it from cutting the paper but it still has quite a feedback. It might work better with a wet ink so it writes even if it barely touches the paper.

I wanted to try an inexpensive Pilot fountain pen to see how I would like the nib. I ordered a pen with a Medium nib. In my experience, most Japanese Medium nibs produce a line width closer to a Western Medium than a Western Fine, and a Japanese Fine is more like a Western Extra Fine with a considerable difference between them. I was hoping for something like a Western Fine, and I was not disappointed. The Medium nib was exceptionally smooth and gave me the line width I was looking for. I ordered a second identical pen to see if my experience was a fluke. The second pen performed exactly the same way, so there seems to be consistency between nibs. Both pens wrote very well straight out of the package. The pens are very light, post well, don't dry out, and are easy to clean out when changing ink. The nib and feed can be removed easily for cleaning by pulling them straight out. The section has flat areas to encourage a three-finger grip, and I find it quite comfortable. The shape of the section makes you hold the pen a certain way, but the nib and feed can be rotated to any position, letting you position the nib perfectly for your writing style. These pens don't have a clip, so if you want to carry one in a shirt pocket, you might want to use a pen sleeve. The clear plastic body lets you check your ink level without removing the barrel. The plastic seems somewhat prone to scratching, but seems fairly durable. A pen sleeve will help keep the pen in good condition. The pen comes with a Pilot cartridge. Pilot sells cartridges in only a few colours, but you could add a Pilot CON-40 or CON-70 converter so you can use any other brand or colour of ink you choose. All in all, I think this a very good, reliable pen at a very reasonable price.

The product itself is very good! I love Pilot Kokuno Fountain Pen. Ink glides smoothly. I gave only 3 stars, however, because the pen came to me already opened and ink cartridge already plugged-in the pen! did I buy a second-hand pen??? Quesrionable seller, in my opinion..

Speedy delivery . The pen is very reasonably priced and I am thrilled with how well it writes - I bought the extra fine and it is really smooth and fine, not scratchy. Very pleased with this purchase

Beautiful pen. Writes very smooth despite how thin of a line it produces. I would definitely recommend this to artists who are looking to produce fine lines. The grip section places your hand in a pretty comfortable position. Worth the price because it is the best in its segment. I keep looking at the pen admiring its build lol.

excellent for sketching,the ef nib is finer than in other brands. scratchy but recommend for sketching (not for writing ).
