Made from rust-resistant and durable stainless steel. A nib designed for long-lasting use.
The nib delivers a sharp writing experience, producing fine lines and letters with consistency. Designed for a 45-degree writing angle and comfortably writes a sentence or two with each dip.
- Initial ink flow may be slow due to the protective coating on the nib and will gradually improve with repeat rinsing and ink application.
- The maximum writing angle is 45 degrees.
- When removing the nib from the nib holder, gently pull it out while turning to avoid dislodging the nib mount.
- Strong impact to the precision-made nib may compromise ink flow.
- To prevent the build-up of dry ink in the grooves, rinse frequently in water during use.
- To remove stubborn dry ink, gently scrub in water with a soft toothbrush.
- If using detergent, a pH neutral detergent is recommended. Avoid alkaline detergents as they will damage the surface.

Excellent in every respect: absolutely love it!
It flows forever with just 1 dip. It offers such a variety of thick and fine lines, effortlessly, like my fudes. But, unlike my temperamental-at-times fudes, it’s indestructible and totally reliable, if I run it under the tap or wipe it clean with a damp cloth after use. Something I learnt. I’m a pen collector. I have been for years but only came across a Kakimori last month when a friend lent me his when we were out sketching. I was hooked, blown away and have since lent mine to other sketchers and within minutes, they’d bought one too. This is a plein air end-of-day sketch drawn almost all with my Kakimori. No pre-pencil drawing

I have been waiting for this for so long!
For around two years now, I have been waiting for a UK store to stock this item. As soon as I received the email, I put my order in and I am not disappointed with it. I creates a consistent line when dipping and writing with the nib. Highly recommend.
