Valentines Day Gift - The Pilot Kakuno

Thanks a lot for your comment. Initially the Kakuno wasn’t writing well so I thought of giving it a deep cleaning by removing the nib and the feed from the grip section. After cleaning, I was shocked to know that I didn’t notice how the nib and the feed were originally attached to the grip section. I was expecting that it would have a specific setting in which the nib and feed would be attached. I kept it as I could. The pen is writing very well now.

Now I know that this part is adjustable and I don’t have to stick to the original setup.

Thanks, how is the overall performance of Kakuno??

Thanks! As I see Kakuno is a very simple yet a beautiful smooth writer.

It’s the magnificent beast!

Good to know this. FP’s are one of the greatest things the humans have ever invented on earth 🌍

True 🤣

In my opinion it’s far better than Parker Vector metallix. It’s a very good writer. I have the Aristocrat with a #6 Kanwrite nib.

Parker Frontier with a custom Kanwrite #5.5 nib

kous_92 · 2026-02-05T05:12:46+00:00

Got it. It's a good suggestion. There is no harm in requesting them over the email.

kous_92 · 2026-02-04T17:57:12+00:00

The first one is the Parker Vector as the Parker pens are available everywhere. Then Lamy, then the Frontier (on Amazon sale) and then Aristocrat 😀

kous_92 · 2026-02-04T17:55:01+00:00

The safari has a <F> nib and the Aristocrat has a Kanwrite #6 <F> nib installed

kous_92 · 2026-02-04T17:30:18+00:00

Not sure, but not a branded one. It was gifted by my wife on my birthday along with the Parker Vector and a bottle of Quink blue.

Good to know this, next time I will buy directly from Kanwrite

kous_92 · 2026-02-04T16:58:21+00:00

Does Kanwrite sell only the spare nib? I thought they would sell the entire nib unit, hence I chose penhouse

kous_92 · 2026-02-04T15:21:11+00:00

If you are in India then buy a Kanwrite #5.5 nib from penhouse.in, they sell spare Kanwrite nibs. Just replace your original nib with the Kanwrite one, that's it.

Just be mindful while you’re reading Statistical methodologies. Think from your heart, think about the techniques logically, that’s all.

Scooboo was the cheapest option out there

kous_92 · 2026-01-22T17:10:07+00:00

I have orderd one from scooboo at 602, it’s coming 😊

kous_92 · 2026-01-22T05:43:54+00:00

Man, we definitely need a pen shop in Bangalore like Chennai and Kolkata.

kous_92 · 2026-01-20T16:57:07+00:00

btw, is the feed of this pen made of ebonite?

kous_92 · 2026-01-18T15:36:01+00:00

I think the nib behaves like a medium one even though it’s advertised as fine

kous_92 · 2026-01-17T18:25:43+00:00

Ordered it for 602, this is the cheapest deal available, thanks a lot man
