Don't make this common mistake with your Kaweco fountain pen! Did you know Kaweco fountain pens come with an ink cartridge inside the barrel of the new pen? From time to time, we'll receive a question from someone who didn't know there was already an ink cartridge in the barrel, and they have a hard time twisting their pen closed once inserting a new cartridge because of the one already hidden in the barrel! In our experience, a simple tap on a hard countertop will always encourage the ink cartridge to come out easily!
