Question @ Pilot Kakuno and CON70

[nospam666]

I saw a YouTube video that claimed the con 70 would fit in the Kakuno. Could someone kindly confirm this?

I would love to put a con 70 in my Kakuno to increase the ink capacity. I have been refilling empty pilot cartridges with a syringe, but that gets really tedious.

It should be OK. I read somewhere that older (pre-2014?) Kakunos had fins inside the barrel that prevented a con-70 from fitting. New ones have room to spare. Haven’t yet tested this myself, though. (I use a con-20.)

Thank you!

Really excited to get a con70 going in the Kakuno.
