Kakuno Fountain Pen, Clear Barrel, Medium Nib (10822) | Writing for taking notes, beginner fountain pen, hexagonal barrel, easy hold, writing pens

I didn’t think this pen would be this smooth. At first glance, you won’t see it being a beauty contestant – it is a pretty basic pen and doesn’t even have a clip. But you better believe it’s smooth!I have a Lamy Safari Medium Nib Fountain Pen and a Pilot Metropolitan MR3, both great designed. But when it comes to the actual smoothness of writing, this pen is alone in its league! Pilot’s nibs are also relatively thin, which is excellent for notebooks, but not very bold for documents’ signatures.If you’re looking for a very smooth, almost buttery, writing feel for notebooks – this is it! 💎

It's a Kakuno! Almost perfect everyday writer. And I can try the shimmer inks without fear. I plan to collect all colors to match the ink

Lovely pen. Could have been sold with a converter.Solid value for money though. Good for everyday use

Very smooth pen. My 1st fountain pen. Got me addicted to fountain pens.

Good build, although doesn't feel as solid as a metal frame. But writes very well and smoothly without stoppage of flow. Strongly recommend for heavy users of ink pens esp. students.

If you are buying a fountain pen for the 1st time this is perfect for you. At this price point ot gives absolutely smooth writting experience and also it's very very Light weight the nib it has used is a premium nib from the pilot metropolitan which is priced around 2k inr. It's extremely value for money and the look it provides is also beautiful as I'm using the transparent one but i would suggest you people to go with the fine tip for notes making as it'll give you a good writting experience good feedback also smoothness and less broad

Could be in 1000 range. V good otherwise

The Pilot Kakuno is a lovely, smooth pen. But FYI - this vendor is sending out "Fine" nibs and not "Medium" nibs (like this product is labeled) . This is annoying but since this is my first Kakuno I have nothing to compare it to. The Fine nib is not scratchy but it does tend to make you write in a smaller font.Positives: The pen is great. The vendor sent it before time.

This is such a great little pen (and fun to write with too!) for the amazingly low Amazon price of approximately $10. So much to like here: this particular pen has a <M> medium nib, which is my favorite for this pen. It can use and ink cartridge or a converter and as you can see, this one has a converter; it’s almost out of ink but from the writing sample you can see I have use bottled ink with the converter (Diamine Emerald). The barrel and cap have angled sides, preventing it from rolling away like a round barrel can; the cap snaps off and seals tightly; the clear barrel shows the ink color and volume. It is extremely lightweight acrylic, which means I can write with it for long periods of time and not have hand fatigue. It feels good in my small hand posted or unposted, although I like the balance better when it is posted. This reliable little pen is a great way to jump into fountain pens for beginners, especially children. This is the second one I’ve purchased for myself, just because it’s fun, inexpensive and writes so well. Highly recommend.

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.

Pluma extraordinaria! No quiero dejar de escribir. Su punta no es muy fina, y es exactamente como la quería. Es ligera y se escribe suavemente. La tinta fluye de forma perfecta! Ya pedí los cartuchos y la pienso usar como mi instrumento primario de uso. Su precio es realmente accesible.

Escolhi a pilot kakuno para ser a minha primeira caneta-tinteiro após pesquisar por uma de qualidade e com um bom preço, minha experiência com ela tem sido maravilhosa, ela vem com as instruções de como colocar o cartucho, o nome de cada parte e etc. Não tive problema de vazamento nem nada, e o traço é não é muito fino nem grosso, e a escrita dela é muito confortável.

Sehr guter Füller für Beginner oder als unempfindlicher Alltagsbegleiter. Kann man, wie alles von Pilot, unbesehen kaufen.
