RE: The 1974 Pilot Elite — A Pocket Pen with a Long Shadow

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

Lately, I’ve only been using disposable ballpoint pens, but I’ve started wanting to have one favorite pen of my own. When I was in middle school, I took shūji lessons using this kind of ink-based pen, and the writing feel is completely different, isn’t it?

For my father’s 77th birthday celebration last year, I gave him a Montblanc ballpoint pen. I actually have quite an attachment to pens myself. (Later I found out—much to my shock—that my father had received the exact same pen from the company he retired from about 20 years earlier 😂😂)

Your shūji lessons used a fountain pen instead of a traditional brush? That's interesting. The writing is very different. So much better, in my opinion. This Pilot Elite is one of my favorites. It's so nice to use.

haha that's a pretty big coincidence! But I'm sure he doesn't mind having two of them. Montblanc pens are pretty nice.
