I remember the Pilot fineliner (blue and black colors with a distinctive yellow cap that nowadays is white) that became my favorite pen during my middle and high school years. I still use it and also own the color line from Stabilo and Staedtler. That was a great innovation for me!! 🖊

@@NandigamS I think the Pilot Frixion Zone erasable pen was the one released in 2020, but the original capped FriXion pen was released in Japan in 2006 or 2007. Frixion pens were actually inspired by Pilot's previous experiments in creating the Metamo ink that changes its color when rubbed or erased.😊

A new wholesome video by JetPens ❤ Guess my pens will be vintage in 20 or 30 years ^^ But growing up in the country of Clairefontaine in the 80's we didn't know much about Japan. Sometime you got excited with a pen without knowing that Pentel and Pilot were Japanese brands (in our class when we were 10 years old in 1982, we found the Pentel R50-c rollerballs very cool, even more because they were not allowed at school for not being Bic but we were "a bit" rebellious😆) The only _vintage_ day-to-day Japanese item I have is a Sharp PC-1261 pocket programming calculator from 1984 (and a PC-1246 from 1982 as a backup) : leightweight, brushed aluminium facade, quick to use, empowering tool you can program on your own, batteries lasting ages 🙂

It's a great informative video from JetPens! A few years ago, NHK World featured a segment about Japanese stationery; the segment was titled BEGIN Japanology. Honestly, I was surprised that Sailor, a famous fountain pen company, actually created the first Japan-made ballpoint pen in 1948, just 3 years after World War II. By comparison, Marcel Bich developed the Bic Cristal ballpoint pen in 1950 while Parker created the iconic Jotter ballpoint pen in 1954. I really learned so much from you when it comes to stationery, and I will never get tired of watching your videos or reading your blogs. Thanks, JetPens, especially to Miriam, for presenting such wonderful video about Japanese stationery evolution for over 100 years. More power to you!😊😉🗂🖋🖊✒️🖍📃🖌

My first post college job was at a computer/office supply store (I was in heaven) and I have a red Tombow Monoball pen from a trade show. I thought it was cool because it was the first pen I had with an "ink window". Plus a few Bic yellow barrel fine point pens and white barrel accounting fine point pens.
