Fountain Pen

From the Dakota’s solid stainless
steel cap and barrel to its German-made JoWo nib that glides effortlessly across the page, this pen transforms writing into a moment of joy. The cap closes with a satisfying motion thanks to its Slip-In Cap™ system, designed for an airtight seal and tactile precision. Atop the cap, an engraved Dakota propeller emblem adds a nostalgic touch, commemorating the aircraft that inspired the pen.

The Nib

At the heart of the fountain pen lies a premium JoWo #5 stainless steel nib, made in Germany and celebrated for its consistent ink flow, durability, and smooth feel. Offered in Extra Fine, Fine, and Medium, these nibs provide a luxurious and personalized writing experience for every style and hand.

The Filling System

The Dakota fountain pen fills with
ease using standard international ink cartridges or the included push-in piston converter. With 33 Monteverde cartridge colors and 93 bottled ink shades available, your writing experience can be as expressive as your thoughts.

Capped Gel Pen (Convertible to Ballpoint)

For those who prefer the ease of a
gel pen but still want elegance and versatility, the Dakota capped gel pen
delivers silky-smooth writing performance in a sleek design. It comes fitted with a high-performance Monteverde liquid gel refill and includes an optional ballpoint refill for users who prefer a more traditional writing experience.

This convertible feature makes the pen especially practical—easily switch between gel and ballpoint refills without compromising on aesthetics or quality.

• Monteverde Gel refills (fit Dakota): P41, P42, P44
• Monteverde Ballpoint refills (fit Dakota): P11, P13, P15

The Slip-In Cap™ System

Where precision meets purpose, the Slip-In Cap™ redefines the ritual of closing your pen. Engineered to mirror the smooth ascent of a plane, this mechanism allows the cap to glide gently and lock into place with an airtight seal. Unlike traditional snap or screw-on
caps, this innovative system blends function and sensual design—each closing action becomes a satisfying, secure gesture that elevates the entire writing experience.

Color Finishes:

Stainless Steel

A brushed matte finish gives this pen a cool, timeless look, celebrating precision and durability. The stainless steel’s natural weight enhances balance and control in hand, while chrome trim adds a refined, modern touch. It’s a pen built to last—and to impress.

Black Sky

This deep, velvety black finish evokes the mystery of a starless night sky. The color seems to absorb and hold light, creating a rich, tactile presence. Gunmetal trim enhances its bold, stealthy character, giving the pen a futuristic yet elegant personality.

Military Green

Inspired by the olive drab camouflage of WWII aircraft, this rugged matte green finish pays tribute to the military heritage of the Dakota plane. Chrome trim offers a striking contrast, reflecting both strength and honor. This finish recalls the markings and spirit of service etched onto the historic aircraft.

Raw Flame

A masterpiece of craftsmanship, the
Raw Flame edition is created through an expert hand-flaming process that reveals an iridescent rainbow effect—no two pens are alike. Vivid hues of blues, purples, oranges, and reds emerge from the steel under flame, resulting in a pattern unique to each pen. Chrome accents bring brightness to the fiery aesthetic, merging intensity with elegance.

Minor variations and imperfections in the finish are natural results of the handcrafted process, adding character and individuality to every pen.
