Can someone please id this Pilot

[Multipen]

I can´t find any info of my new Pilot pen or its name.  I´m not able to find anything despite google picture search.  I know I´v seen pictures of that model before several times but can´t remember where.

It is a quite simple pen in plastic with an old screw in squeeseconverter but has some similaritys to other Pilot models.

I´m just curious of its name and when it was made. Many thanks in advance.

It's a Pilot Korea pen but I have no idea what model. The cap looks like it might be styled after the Myu, perhaps? 

 

You can see some Pilot Korea pens with similar nibs and sections here:

Thank you! This helps some. I can now understand i can see the top of an inscription on the nib of what probably is ROK. Korea backwards?

But there are some models in your link that share some resemblance with mine.

It's a Pilot Myu 25.  They were also made in some other colors.

Hello.

 

 Was there a long version of the Pilot Myu Black (Myu-25)?

 If it exists I'll go for it.

😉

Make sure you look for the long version Myu 25 made by Pilot Korea. Perhaps the rarest pen ever (not) in existence. 😉

I see, if the pen goes out of Japan, will Pilot Japan and Pilot Korea be treated the same...?

 If so, it will no longer be Myu Black.

 So the name changed to Myu-25?

😣

I'm a bit confused - my response was just a poor attempt at kidding around. 

 

To the original poster: the circular 'p' logo on the nib is a dead giveaway for Pilot Korea (more accurately, Korea Pilot Co., Ltd), a totally separate company and licensee of Pilot Japan at the time your pen was made.

If there is a long version as a trend of Pilot Japan products, "short" is attached as a model name (as a trend).

 So I wondered.

 

 Myu-25's official name in Pilot Japan is "ミューブラック" "Myu Black". There is no "short" attached to the name.

 

 The model name of Pilot Japan for the color version of Myu Black is "ミュー コンビ カラー タイプ" "Myu Combi Color Type", accompanied by color designations such as white, neo-pink, and roll green.

 This is the Pilot Japan customer contact's response to my question, so I don't think it's wrong.

 

 I forgot to explain what the question is under that background.

 

 I wondered why these fountain pens are called "Myu-25" because Korean Pilot's similar products are also called "Myu-25". (I misunderstood it as a generic name for them.)

 

 I took the meaning of "the rarest pen ever (not) in existence" as "discontinued product" and didn't realize it was a joke.

 

I was seriously about to start looking for the long version.

😄

I think it's a very cool pen.

It's very interesting that this long Korean pen is called the same name as the short Japanese pen. Why do you think Pilot Korea decided to use the same name?

 

Are there any pens other than this one and the Elite where Pilot Korea used the same name as Pilot Japan?
