About this item

  • [BRUSH TIP] High-quality, synthetic brush tip with very fine fibers creates thick and thin lines with precision. Special hair tip stays uniform to prevent splitting, and has excellent elasticity and durability. Due to the long body, it is easy to write and draw with, and ideal for both beginners and proffessionals. High-quality and longevity of the brush is a guarantee that this product is Made in Japan.
  • [FLEXIBLE BRUSH] Amazing extra fine tip is great for art, calligraphy, brush lettering, sketching, illustrations, outlining, inking, wash drawing and more!
  • [SMUDGE FREE INK] The Takujo uses a black, water-based dye ink that blends and mixes with water, but will not bleed trough paper. It is perfect for left-handed artists.
  • [REFILLABLE] The fountain brush pen's structure is the same as a fountain pen, therefore ink cartridges are interchangeable. Available refill cartridges: DAN105-99H…Water-based Dye ink and DAN106-99H…Water-based Pigment ink
  • [ESTABLISHED MANUFACTURER] Kuretake launched its first brush pen in 1973, continuing to expand the line with each product having unique features, and a variety of uses. The brush pen is most commonly used for calligraphy, lettering, sketching, outlining, inking illustrations and ink washing.

    Customers find the control of the pen to be easy. They mention that the pen is responsive, easy to handle, and has great sensitivity to pressure changes during a pen stroke. They also say the bristles stay pointed.

    "...A bit fluffy but very soft (like an actual brush) and with great control although I could see it fraying for people of they use the brush too roughly..." Read more

    "...The control is very good, I can create very fine lines, bold ones, clean ones, patchy ones, etc...." Read more

    18 customers mention0 positive18 negative

    Customers are dissatisfied with the ink flow of the pen. They mention that the inking stops, the pen has a very heavy flow of ink, and the tip past the bristles gets messy easily. The ink gets all over their hands and all over the paper. They also mention that if the pen is not used regularly, the inked can coagulate.

    "...Ink does take a bit to start flowing and I think my first one was a bit off since it looked a little emptier than the other one...." Read more

    "...one time and hasn't happened since-- I did notice that the ink amount got a bit less when it had been standing up in my pocket a while, but upon..." Read more

    "...Even after drying for several days, or even weeks, the ink will still run when water is applied to it...." Read more

    "...the downside is that if the pen is not used regularly, the ink can coagulate...." Read more

    Great first brush pen
    5 Stars
    Great first brush pen
    Be sure to look at directions on the package I nearly broke my pen because I tried to figure out putting it together by myself. But after it was assembled it worked beautifully. It’s great for filling large spaces but it’s tough to neatly fill in small areas so I recommend filling the bulk with this pen and then using a smaller pen to fill in near the edges of complex shapes. Also this pen is long lasting. A friend has had hers for a year and still hasn’t needed the replacement cartridge of ink. I highly recommend this brush pen.

    I was browsing for fountain pens when I found this pen and I decided to purchase it. I am in love with this pen honestly. Just shake it once before writing and it's just like magic. You can see me use this in my journal as well as for letting at instagram / abujoist
