Pilot unveiled the world’s first retractable fountain pen with patented, precision engineering and unsurpassed elegance on October 21st, 1963. “Capless,” or Vanishing Point (in the United States), quickly became a revolutionary product in the fountain pen community.
Kanreki (還暦), in the traditional Japanese calendar, celebrates 60 years of life and renewal, based on the ancient lunar calendar. 60 years is the mark for a completed calendar cycle and symbolizes rebirth. Red is the established color that represents protection and is adorned for such a meaningful event. For 2023, Pilot proudly honors the Vanishing Point with the Kanreki Limited Edition that features a symbolic red and hi-gloss finish.
The 2023 Limited Edition Vanishing Point Kanreki is enhanced with an 18k rhodium-plated gold nib in medium, complemented by matte black trim. This highly sought-after fountain pen is produced in a limited quantity of 2,023 pens worldwide.
This fountain pen comes with a retractable 18k gold nib – just click to expose or retract the nib. A hidden trap door helps keep the nib from drying out when not in use. A Pilot CON-40 converter is included with this pen, as well as a Pilot ink cartridge.
A metal cartridge cap is also included for use with the ink cartridge. Each Vanishing Point fountain pen is beautifully merchandised in a special gift box, and is individually numbered out of 2023 along the pen’s centerband.
