This retractable pen opens with a click to reveal a classic fountain pen.
The pen is designed by Pilot, a Japanese company with over 90 years of history devoted to the creation of fountain pens. This state-of-the-art pen looks like a modern design, but it was actually created over 50 years ago! It was designed to accommodate casual, active use that goes beyond a desktop. This retractable fountain pen is the only of its kind.
The body color for this pen is a calming matte black, and the nib is made with 18-karat gold. The pen weighs 30 g, giving it a stable feel when holding it in your hand. The pen is nice and portable, making it an ideal choice for beginners using a fountain pen for the first time. The unique structure of this fountain pen even makes it look like a ballpoint pen at first glance.
The fine-tip nib makes the pen suitable for writing in the Hobonichi Techo or Hobonichi 5-Year Techo. It’s slightly thinner than the lines of the Custom74 Fountain Pen FM.
The fountain pen body comes with a single blank ink cartridge.
