Overview

The Pilot Capless Wooden fountain pen in red combines a silky birch-wood covering with rhodium accents, giving the retractable design a natural surface.

The red birch covering is impregnated with resin and fitted over a brass body. Rhodium trim highlights the silky wood surface, making the material itself the focus of the Wooden’s design.

The rhodium-plated 18k gold nib extends at the push of a button and retracts into the barrel behind an internal shutter. It carries forward the capless concept Pilot introduced in 1963 and accepts Pilot ink cartridges or a compatible converter for bottled ink.

Made in Japan.

Questions & Answers

Is the Wooden body made entirely of birch?

The body has a brass base covered with resin-impregnated birch wood. The birch forms a silky exterior surface.

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.

Can I rinse the whole pen when cleaning it?

No. Flush the removable writing unit with clean water and keep the outer housing and barrel out of the water. Clean the birch-wood exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

Quality pen, tricky to fill.

Pilot capless feels nice quality and it writes smoothly. As expected the medium nib is more of a fine to medium. Cartridge converter is quite low volume and difficult to fill fully, it is also impossible to get the pen deep enough in my 1/3 full Pilot 50ml ink pot to fill it, as it isn’t long enough to reach the ink. Had to buy small ink bottle to be able to fill it from instead.
Delivery from Iguana was impressively fast.

Hello Mark,

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're glad to hear you're enjoying the quality and smooth writing experience of the Pilot Capless. It's true that the converter’s capacity and design can present some challenges, especially with low ink levels. We have sent you an email with some tips.

We’re also pleased that our delivery met your expectations. If you ever need assistance or filling tips, we're always happy to help!
