Product Description
Type Capless fountain pen -- the nib retracts like a ballpoint
Product Name Decimo. The Decimo is a slightly slimmer version of Pilot's Vanishing Point retractable fountain pen - the diameter at the grip of the VP is 11.8mm, whereas the Decimo's grip diameter is 10.6mm. Additionally, the Decimo is lighter - 20.6g vs. 30g for the VP. If you love the retractability and ease of deployment of the Vanishing Point, but it's just a touch too big or heavy, the Decimo may be a better fit for you.
Manufacturer and Year Pilot (Namiki) Japan -- 2019. This was a limited edition, sold only at Nagasawa stationery stores in this year. The nib is also date stamped 0319.
Length 5-1/2"
Filling System Pilot cartridge or converter. A CON-40 converter is installed. The metal cartridge cover (recommended to keep the cartridge from being pierced by the internal mechanisms) is missing, but if you think you'll be using cartridges and you need one, just let us know and we can be sure to ship one with the pen.
Color Suma Rikyu Rose - a deep metallic pink color. Chrome trim.
Nib 18k Fine Nib, rhodium plated.
Condition Superior condition. There are a few tiny marks in the lacquered finish, but for the most part this pen looks basically new. There are some very faint marks on the knock indicating that it's been clicked a few times, and the nib may have been dipped. No other scratching or polishing marks on the trim. The nib size sticker is still affixed to the barrel. The pen has no cracks, chips, dents, or dings. The deep pink shimmering color is gorgeous! The imprints are crystal clear.
