A , also known as a brush pen, is a cartridge-based writing implement used in East Asian calligraphy; it is, in essence, a cross between an ink brush and a fountain pen.

==Overview== The fudepen was invented by Sailor Fountain Pen Co. Ltd. in 1972, but Kuretake Co. Ltd. made it commercially successful with their release in 1973. Kuretake developed their fudepen through the application of felt-tip pen technology, after plans to export felt-tip pens were disrupted by the sudden appreciation of Japanese Yen due to the Nixon Shock.
