Pilot

Pilot is a Japanese writing instrument manufacturer with a history that goes back to 1918, when it began producing fountain pens in Japan. The brand is widely known for combining practical everyday reliability with engineering driven innovation, supported by decades of in house expertise in both pens and ink. 

Across its range, Pilot offers everything from accessible everyday pens to highly refined fountain pens, with a strong focus on smooth performance, consistent flow, and comfortable ergonomics. It is also behind several landmark products, including the Capless, often described by the company as the world’s first capless fountain pen, and the FriXion erasable ink system, which helped define a modern category of erasable writing tools.
