Originally released as a dip pen around the year 1900, the Perkeo has been revived as a stylish entry-level fountain pen perfect for students and beginners. It carries on Kaweco's hallmark combination of classy and offbeat styling elements with its octagonal cap, 16-sided barrel, and funky two-tone color schemes. Its triangular grip section makes it easy to hold at the best angle for smooth ink flow and effortless writing. The transparent threaded section where the grip meets the barrel acts as a hidden ink window, letting you check the ink level without fully unscrewing the barrel.
This pen can also use a cartridge converter - available for purchase here: Standard International Converter

I love the Perkeo--this is my 3rd. I have a lot fountain pens, but there is almost always a Perkeo in my rotation; I think they are overlooked and underrated. They are inexpensive, come in a variety of colors, write great out of the box, are light weight but sturdy, are great posted or not posted, fit the hand comfortably with just a hint of triangle to the grip (if you tried a Safari and didn't like it, don't be scared off the Perkeo--it is much more gentle and I find it makes long writing sessions more enjoyable). It's taking everything I have to not rush out and buy a fourth after writing this review. Truphae are great as always.

Very professional company. Loved the pens !! Thank you for great service!!
For such an inexpensive pen, this writes very well. Just enough feedback without being scratchy at all. I would have given it 5 stars, but the color is not the bright yellowish shown in the picture, but rather a dull olive color.
I will admit I got this pen since it made me think of bumble bees. I've been using it daily at work as my go to pen. Easy to use and good quality. Definitely recommend.
