Can I use Kakimori ink in another fountain pen I already own?
Sometimes you find an ink color you like, but hesitate over whether you also need to purchase a dedicated pen. If you already have fountain pens from other brands in your drawer, you wonder if it is okay to fill and use them right away.
Kakimori states that issues such as ink clogging may occur, as they have not separately tested pens other than the writing instruments sold by themselves and inkstand.
When encountering a new ink, you stand at a crossroads choosing which pen to fill it with. Products other than writing instruments presented by Kakimori and inkstand have not undergone filling tests[1]. Therefore, if used in fountain pens from other brands, issues such as interrupted flow or clogged internal feeds may occur[2].
Generally, fountain pens have a delicate feed structure that utilizes capillary action, making it easy for residue to remain and harden depending on the ink's drying speed or components. If you intend to use it in pens from other brands, you should write frequently so that the ink does not dry out completely inside, and maintain it by periodically flushing the feed with lukewarm water.
hmmm, if you want to enjoy colorful hues while worrying that the fountain pen feed might clog, trying it on paper first with a dip pen or glass pen—which wets only the tip of the nib instead of filling ink inside the pen—is also a good option.
Detailed compatibility according to specific third-party fountain pen models or nib specifications has not yet been confirmed.
