It also accommodates the Kaweco mini squeeze or piston converter for using bottled fountain pen inks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes the pen come with ink included?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, each pen includes one blue standard international short ink cartridge housed inside the barrel. Be sure to remove it and push it firmly into the nib section before writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan the Kaweco AL Sport be converted into an eyedropper pen?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Because the body is constructed from aluminum metal, ink placed directly in the barrel can react with the metal or corrode the threads.
