Ideal for all fountain pen users
Lightweight durable plastic body
Suitable for long writing sessions
Smiley face etched on the nib
The Kakuno is such a great fountain pen at an entry level, very smooth and can be used straight out of the box. Also, great packaging from Makoba
The Pilot Kakuno is a delightful fountain pen that is ideal for both first time fountain pen users and experienced writers. "Kakuno" means "to write" in Japanese, and that's just what this pen helps users to do by featuring an appealing smiley face on the steel nib, when oriented upward, ensures perfect nib orientation. The highlight of the pen is the smiley face etched onto the surface of the shiny steel nib. The lightweight durable plastic body of the pen makes the Pilot Kakuno a great pen with long writing sessions.

We do accept returns and refunds. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
Every order creates an adrenaline rush in our team so any order received before 1PM will usually be shipped on the same day itself. However, due to unforeseen circumstances if we are not able to get your ready, rest assured we will ship it the next day. For more information on shipping, check out our shipping policy section.
We do not consider ourselves as a sales store, but more like your personal consultants.
Your great idea is just waiting to be put on paper. Put that piece of writing instrument into motion and see its magic.
I have tried various inks and this is the closest to what a HB or 2B pencil looks like! This is a good enough reason, for me, to keep it in rotation. It is also not dry and that helps.
It is the best engineered fountain pen. Must buy one. Note that Lamy 2000 fine is close of Safari medium.
The Octopus Sheen Ink Bottle – Mermaid is a visual treat! On high-quality paper like Rhodia, it delivers a gorgeous dual-tone sheen that really brings your writing to life—shifting between rich teal and a subtle violet under the right light. It’s definitely a standout for those who enjoy expressive inks.
The ink flows smoothly and behaves well in most of my fountain pens, though it does take a bit longer to dry, especially on coated papers. If you’re left-handed or tend to write quickly, that’s something to keep in mind.
The only caveat is the price. But if you're looking to add something truly special to your collection, it’s worth the splurge.

I liked the ink.
The pen really looks very nice. Writing is very smooth and soft. I am enjoying writing with it.
This ink is best even for an extra fine. Not too wet like some watery inks and that makes you feel the nib's ink's and paper's texture. That is what a good writing experience needs.
I love writing in my journal with it. I have been waiting to buy this pen since 6 months. Finally bought it and i love it
Thanks makoba
The Kaweco pen is a delight to write with—exceptionally smooth, reliable, and comfortable. Its beautiful blue body and elegant gold clip make it visually striking. Perfect for anyone who values both style and performance in their writing tools.

The product mentioned is just as it is as mentioned on the website, customer service is quick and prompt, amazing experience.
I love Japanese fountain pens and inks, especially the ones made by Pilot and Sailor. This is, in fact, my 3rd Pilot Metropolitan. I bought it only to collect this attractive color.
It’s a genuine product that is made in Japan. The delivery was on time and was well-packed, ensuring no damage to the pen. It came in a nice box with 2 proprietary (black) ink cartridges and a squeeze converter.
Pilot Metro is an outstanding beginner’s pen. I will recommend it to people looking for a starter fountain pen. Overall, it was a satisfying experience! I hope this info helps you to decide on your future orders.
This pen is an awesome make. It glides on the paper. I have bought the extra fine nib version. But i must say packaging of Makoba is fantabulous.
It's a Beautiful German Ink! It has an amazing Dark Purple hue. But it's only suitable for LAMY fountain pens. So, before buying it, one must keep in mind that it will not work with any other pens.

It is slightly darker that I though it would be (from pictures etc.). It has nice shading but nothing spectacular that stands out.
