Pilot Kakuno Fountain Pen, Clear Barrel, Extra Fine Nib (10816)

It came before estimated time. Good quality and price. Recommend

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

Excellent pen. Writes like a dream and if you get the right things it is refillable aka a converter or if you are confident a syringe. Fits comfortably in hand. Dries exceptionally quickly. Doesn't bleed through pages. And yes it does feel plastically but its not overwhelming

I genuinely love this fountain pen. it’s true that it’s beginner friendly. very comfortable to write with. personally i love how it writes so thin and effortless. i no longer mind the cost because it is both great and affordable for the quality it gives out when writing. literally i have no regrets. recommend to anyone who’s a beginner and like to write with thin pens. i also hear you can use a converter such as CON-40 or CON-70. absolutely love it!

Good pen. I guess. I bought it to send my daughter in Philippines because she loves these pens. She said it's a great pen, so i suggest you all trust her on that one.

Writes beautifully glides across paper even hobonichi paper

Writing is a pleasure with this pen, highly recommended.

The paper is sensational. The value for money is superb and I love the cover

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.

Très agréable à utiliser pour le dessin. La plume extra-fine accroche un peu au début, ça dépend sans doute aussi du type de papier, mais elle s'adoucit (ou je m'habitue !) assez vite. Ce stylo japonais demande des cartouches et convertisseur spéciaux, pas au format standard international, mais ils se trouvent aisément en ligne. Sa forme est particulièrement confortable et permet une tenue souple et sûre, elle convient aussi aux débutants. Le corps transparent permet de vérifier le niveau d'encre. J'aimerais en utiliser d'autres de la même série mais leur prix peut être prohibitif, dû sans doute en partie à l'importation, car ils sont plus modiques sur amazon.co.jp. Mais dans ce cas il faut prévoir les frais de port et de douane, donc... NB, je l'ai découvert par une démonstration de l'artiste chinoise ZeldaCW <3.

I purchased this pen around a month or so ago. The extra fine nib writes smoothly without any issue, and the ink is fairly easy and simple to refill. I've used both cartridges and a converter and have found no issues so far. As of now, I'm currently using Pilot's con-70 converter alongside their blue black ink. The pen body is made of plastic and is relatively comfortable to hold in my hands. The only thing I have a complaint with is that if I decide to mindlessly leave the pen upside down and capped when no longer in use, the ink tends to leak into the cap. However, this is easily solved by just remembering to place it upright so no biggie. Additionally, some of the ink gets stuck in the grip section, but maybe some maintenance on the pen could clean a bit of it off. I'm actually surprised with how durable the pen could be. I accidentally left it in one of my pockets, so it was thrown into the washing machine. When I found it again after, I was lucky to find that there was no damage to the pen (aside from a bit of water getting stuck) and no ink had leaked into the clothes. This is excellent for its cheap price and I would 100% be willing to buy this fountain pen again if I need a replacement! It's honestly one of my favorites to write with as a beginner.
