As a result of strict Japanese quality inspection; There are some scratches, scuffs, and small scratches on the cap and knock parts, but it is generally in good condition. Stainless steel nib for casual use. [Capless] A capless fountain pen that has been loved for over 50 years since its release in 1963. Capless pens are popular because of their unique and practical mechanism, which allows you to knock out the tip of the pen by knocking on the tail shaft. This groundbreaking fountain pen is popular around the world as the ``Vanishing Point'' (a pen with a disappearing nib). A versatile pen with a stylish design, mechanism, and form that is convenient to carry. A series that allows you to enjoy writing with a fountain pen on a daily basis. This is one book I recommend. [PILOT, Japan's highest level recognized by the world] In the mid-1890s, Ryosuke Namiki, who graduated from Merchant Marine School, went on board a cargo ship as an engineer in charge of overseas trade. As he came into contact with many imported products, he dreamed of ``creating something from Japan that we could be proud of to the world.'' Ryosuke Namiki, whose passion and inquisitive spirit bore fruit and became a professor, obtained a patent related to ink storage. In 1918, he established Namiki Seisakusho and began manufacturing and selling fountain pens. This is the beginning of flying around the world. After visiting Europe, he developed a method for manufacturing fountain pens using lacquer that prevents ebonite from deteriorating over time. He established the ``Kokukokai'' (Kokukokai), led by Gonroku Matsuda, who later became a Living National Treasure. The ``NAMIKI'' brand was quickly established and recognized around the world, including signing a sales agency agreement in Europe with the global brand ``Alfred Dunhill.'' Each Maki-e fountain pen is a masterpiece that takes over 3 months to complete and goes through as many as 130 steps. This is also one of the moments when Japan's traditional techniques and perfection were recognized around the world. Pilot fountain pens have given form to ideas that have surprised the world one after another, starting with the world's first capless fountain pen, ``capless''. While parts manufacturing is increasingly being outsourced, we are one of the few manufacturers in Japan, including Japan's three major manufacturers, that do everything from alloy casting in-house. In addition, we have developed a unique technology to mix and weld iridosmin balls, the metal used in pen points. It was first realized in Japan in 1914, and since then, we have developed and welded it in-house, which is rare in the world, and we handle rare metals that are extremely hard and hard to wear. Iridosmine balls are so hard that they are almost as hard as diamonds, and are extremely difficult to mold. This is where Pilot's stable pen point, writing quality, and durability come from. Pilot means a ``pilot guide'' who stands at the head of a large ship. The company emblem uses a floating ring to express the spirit of "overcoming obstacles" and "solid bonds" of always standing at the forefront of the times and moving forward in the face of challenges. After about 100 years, Ryosuke Namiki's proudly ``world-class'' products are now shining brightly. Please enjoy this gem of a writing instrument that comes close to its owner's daily life.
