There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I also bought a box of the Pilot Mixable Ink cartridges in all colors. These inks are very vibrant and saturated, however they are very wet and feather on almost every type of paper. Feathering was minor on 32 lb HP Premium paper. You are not limited to the Pilot ink found in the supplied cartridges. Simply refill an empty cartridge with any fountain pen ink using a syringe. It is simple to completely disassemble these pens and to clean them. A water bulb is supplied to flush the pen and a strip of film is provide to clean between the nib plates. I have also been using Ecoline watercolor ink with beautiful results, and it doesn't clog the pen at all.
I definitely recommend that you give these pens a try.

Das beste Werkzeug grade für Einsteiger, mag sich billig anfühlen, die Ergebnisse sind jedoch herausragend:
Scharfe Kanten, liegt gut in der Hand und auch mit anderer Tinte nutzbar
Mit Übung kann man mit diesem Stift auch mehr als "nur" gebrochene Schriften schreiben
