Kabayaki is a limited-release BUNGUBOX ink: a deep brown inspired by the glossy sauce brushed onto grilled eel in Hamamatsu, the city where BUNGUBOX began. It is a Sailor-made dye ink in a 50ml bottle, and one of the two inks BUNGUBOX first created in 2012 to celebrate its home town.

The Nib Safety Net

"Gravity Happens. We’ve Got You Covered."

We know the heartbreak of a fountain pen hitting the floor. As a member of our Creative Rewards, you don't have to worry about the 'tines.' If the worst happens, just send us a photo and we'll send you a 50% discount for a fresh start.

"The Nib Safety Net" – Terms & Conditions

  • Eligibility: This benefit is exclusive to active members of the Creative Rewards program at the time of the accident.
  • Coverage: The 50% discount applies strictly to accidental damage (e.g., dropping the pen) that renders the nib unusable. It does not cover intentional damage, loss of the pen, theft, or normal wear and tear.
  • The Claim: To activate your discount, you must provide a clear photo of the damaged nib and your original order number to oops@yourstore.com.
  • Limitations: This discount is valid for a one-time replacement per pen purchased and applies only to the cost of the replacement nib unit. It cannot be combined with other promotional codes or used for full pen replacements.
  • Availability: We will provide the discount for the exact nib model where stock is available. If the model is discontinued, we will offer a 50% discount on a comparable alternative nib unit.

An ink from Hamamatsu

Hamamatsu is known for musical instruments, mandarin oranges and eel. In 2012 BUNGUBOX made two inks for its home city: Mikan, after the oranges, and Kabayaki, after the dark, rich sauce used on grilled eel. Kabayaki has since been re-released for Japan’s summer eel day.

A brown with depth

Kabayaki is a warm, dark brown — the kind that reads as black-brown in a fine nib and shows its warmth in a broader one.

Honest Note:

This is a limited release, and BUNGUBOX has discontinued and re-released it before. If it becomes a favourite, buy a spare bottle. It is a dye ink, so it is not waterproof. BUNGUBOX’s Nostalgia is a close relation from the permanent range if Kabayaki sells out.

Who is it For?

• Fountain pen enthusiasts who collect limited inks
• Anyone who loves warm browns for everyday writing
• A gift for someone who already has the standard colours

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUSTIONS (FAQ)
