What Pilot pens fit CON-70 Converters?

[Shamouti]

Hi,

 

I have three CON-70 converters which cannot be used in my pens since they're so honking huge! The filler mechanism is great though.

 

So what pens by Pilot can be used with CON-70 Vacuum converters? I know that's a silly question, but it's either I three pens that fit without spending money or sell them outright.

 

What do you think?

Custom 845

Quattro

Custom Extra Smooth FKK-3MR

Custom 743

Legance

Custom 742

Bamboo

Custom Maple

Custom 74

Does anyone know where to buy these in the US? I can't see anywhere...

If you are talking about the converter, it's sold under Namiki (NAM-69901, NAM-70008). Pendemonium lists them on their Namiki Ink page.

Can the Namiki Falcon use the Con-70?

[nemesiz]

Unfortunately I don't own a Namiki Falcon, so cannot confirm whether the Con-70 converter fits the fountain pen. Although the forum user - Haywoody answered the question here , so the credit goes to him.

 

If you are after a flexible, soft fine nib that has the characteristics of the Namiki Falcon fountain pen and accepts a con-70 converter, then have a look at the custom 742 and 743 Fountain Pens with a Falcon nib. See here and here for further details. Again credit should be forwarded to the original contributors.

Does anyone know if I can use a CON-70 in a Pilot Custom 67? I suspect so, but would love the confirmation.

 

Thanks,

Anyone able to answer this?

 

Thanks!

If anyone has one of these they'd be willing to sell me, or take at trade of a few ink samples for, let me know! Pendemonium used to have them, but not for a while.

 

Thanks!

What colours' your Kakuno? When was it made? Does it not have supporting fins?

The new Kakunos don't have the fins. The older ones do. I think the soft color Kakunos don't have the fins.

Ah, yes, I forgot about that issue.

 

I'm using the new Kakuno and the new con-70.

I have heard the Kakuno made before 2015 had fins, preventing con-70 from fitting.

Another issue is the type of con-70. The old con-70 was slight bigger, though I don't think it held more ink. The con-70 design I think changed about 15 years ago, but I'm not certain about this date.

pilot custom heritage 91 can take con 70 and metal falcon can take con70 but not the resin falcon
