About Pilot

A century ago, one sailor set out to create a fountain pen for the world...Pilot was born with this vision of "adventures on paper." Writing is a sign of humans expressing their thoughts as text that can be read and understood. From the Egyptian hieroglyph and wooden and bamboo strips of China, to the modern Chinese and Japanese characters and other texts that are in use today, writing is a medium of communication that has linked humans around the world and been a key driver to the advancement of mankind. Japanese-based Pilot has focused on this act of writing, and has constantly been involved in its development. Through its products, Pilot hopes to play a vital role in ensuring that the culture of writing is passed onto future generations. Every single pen made by Pilot is crafted with the same attention to detail and high quality as their first gold nib fountain pen produced in 1918 by Ryosuke Namiki. With a Pilot Pen in your hand, you possess the power to write down your ideas and share your feelings with the world as never before. Pilot offers a broad range of writing instruments, so no matter who you are or what you write, Pilot has a pen that will help you make your mark.
