Hi all,

 

I am really excited to share pictures of the pilot pen I received in mail this morning!

 

I had reached to multiple vendors across Europe and finally found one piece at Stilograph Corsani.

 

Hope you enjoy it. Let me know your thoughts!

 

Cheers,

Sidd

What a beauty! I was disappointed like many that there were no lower-priced special editions, and I'm not normally a fan of maki-e. But with the blue water and ship motif this is so ineffably Pilot that I covet it 😅 thank you for sharing!

Congratulations. It is indeed a beautiful pen. Mine should arrive next week. Possibly the last one available for Europe.

Thank you all for your comments!

Congrats! I agree, it seems that there are limited numbers remaining in Europe.

 

 

Beautiful, wonder when they will be available in the US?

 

I think its available for purchase online already. It is sold out at many stores too, I did look at US stores to potentially import it to London.

Yeah I really wish there was a lower-priced edition as well. I'm not yet comfortable to use this one for daily use but I am trying!

Want !! - and much Kudos for inking it up and using it :) (though I'm sure most here would do the same).

 

Thanks! I was not sure about inking it up, but then it was the only way to really enjoy the purchase :)

 

P.S - I'll look up the Fountain Pen Club and try to join you all next month!

Congratulations! What a beautiful pen! I will be able to have one this week in Japan. Why can you have the pen so early?

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
