Its silhouette is purposeful and refined, with a mirror-black luster that reveals the quiet depth only hand-applied urushi can achieve. For writers who appreciate substance in the hand and an effortless line on the page, this is a flagship expression of Pilot's craft.

Craftsmanship & Design

Shaped from warm, lightweight ebonite and finished with multiple layers of black urushi, the Custom Urushi invites close inspection. The lacquer is applied and polished in Japan to a high gloss that accentuates the pen's clean lines and gentle curvature. Gold-finished trim provides a measured contrast, while the broad cap band and classic clip add heritage cues without distraction. It is a large pen by intent, yet the balance and tactile comfort of the lacquered section keep it approachable for long sessions.

Urushi is valued not only for its depth and glow, but also for its durability. Over time, the finish develops a subtle presence that reflects careful use rather than wear. The screw-cap closure is deliberate and secure, with threads that engage smoothly and a cap that seals well to preserve ink and nib readiness between writings.

Writing Experience

At the heart of the Custom Urushi is Pilot's No. 30 18k gold nib, a rare attribute in modern production pens. Tuned for consistent flow and understated control, it lays down a confident line with a hint of responsive spring rather than overt flex. The generous feed keeps pace during faster notes and sweeping signatures alike. Available in Medium-Fine, Medium, and Broad, each width showcases the nib's hallmark smoothness while maintaining the precision for which Pilot is known.

The pen uses Pilot's proprietary cartridge-converter system and is compatible with the high-capacity Con-70 converter. This pairing suits the nib's appetite for consistent ink delivery and offers practical flexibility for those who rotate colors or travel. In hand, the lacquered section provides gentle traction, and the overall weight remains comfortable despite the pen's commanding size.

Heritage & Provenance

Pilot has been shaping the language of Japanese fountain pens since 1918, with urushi work forming a throughline from early Namiki artistry to contemporary flagships. The Custom Urushi sits where daily usability meets traditional finishing, honoring historic techniques while embracing modern reliability. It is a pen made to be written with, yet it carries the quiet culture of Japanese lacquer to every desk it graces.

THIS STUFF WORKS
I’ve been bed ridden w some type of facial/sinus infection for months on and off, and when I tell you this was the ONLY thing that helped w my intense headache pain, IT REALLY WORKED ! Best thing I’ve ever used tbh, and I’m always trying natural things for pain relief. (I hate pills but sometimes nothing else works for my chronic migraines) but this stuff is amazing. and it smells so good ! I’d totally buy again, and I’ve always recommended it to two other ppl, and they loved how it worked as well !

Not a nasal spray put in temples
This is NOT a typical Nose Spray. I did a search for nose spray. I read the description. I read the reviews. It arrived quickly. I sprayed into my nose. For 10 minutes this stronger than vicks Nasal Spray burned my sinus, throat and eyes. But no congestion the rest of the day. Bought some for a friend. Good thing he read the box. PUT on temples.

I used the spray today. Usually I blow my now all day and night 24/7. But today it’s been 3 hours and I haven’t needed to blow except for 2 times and then it was practically nothing. I recommend this product to everyone.
