Overview

The Pilot Capless Wooden in black covers a brass body with resin-impregnated birch wood, giving the retractable fountain pen a silky wood surface. Rhodium trim highlights the dark finish, while the wood covering distinguishes it from the lacquered versions of the Capless.

Its rhodium-plated 18k gold nib extends at the push of a button and retracts into the barrel behind an internal shutter. The wood finish leaves the familiar capless mechanism intact, with no separate cap to handle. It accepts Pilot ink cartridges or a compatible converter for bottled ink.

Made in Japan, it measures 154 mm long. The barrel is 13 mm wide, and the pen weighs 43 g.

Questions & Answers

Is the Wooden body made entirely of birch?

The body has a brass base covered with resin-impregnated birch wood. The wood forms the exterior surface and gives it the silky touch described for this model.

How does the Capless work without a separate cap?

Press the button to extend the nib for writing, then press it again to retract it into the barrel. An internal shutter closes over the retracted nib to help protect it from drying out.

Which cartridges and converter fit this Capless?

It accepts Pilot IC-50 ink cartridges or a Pilot CON-40 converter for bottled fountain pen ink.

How should I care for the birch-wood exterior?

Clean the birch-wood exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.
