The gold standard of fountain pens

This pen is worth all the hype and is money well spent.
Bought the broad nib variant and it just glides on paper. Great capacity to hold ink, refuses to run out of ink( which is a good problem to have).

No hard starts found after a month of usage. Nib stays wet and is ready to write which is excellent. Ink flow is plenty. This is my first vaccum filler pen and so far I've liked it very much.

It's got the classic Pilot design which I very much like. The cap locks nice and smooth in about 2 turns. Has a sturdy clip. The pen is well balanced without posting. Cap can be posted but feels a bit to heavy(for me) when posted.

Overall an excellent pen which will keep you coming back to it. Thanks to the Makoba team for delivering it in mint condition.

What a pen!

I have used a lot of Pilot pens over the years and a lot of them have been vintage ones. Out of all the modern Pilot pens this is the most hyped one. And it deserves every bit of that hype. This is my first broad nib. That was one of the best decisions. I love stubs and this is beautifully thick. Love the way this writes and more than that love the way it feels in the hand. The weight is just perfect. Cleaning it out does take some time but its worth the hassle.

Grail Pen

After 6 months of heavy usage, one can’t get a better pen. Glassy smooth. Perfect edc. However, if you’re someone who changes inks very frequently, you might wanna look at the 743
