On March 31, 2020, I ordered an E95s from fast japan us on Amazon. It never came. I was finally able to submit a claim and get a refund a little while ago. What did I do? I ordered another one from a different company but this time I went with Burgundy.
I first encountered the E95s at Anderson Pens in Chicago. I love this store and try to go whenever I am in Chicago. They have a wide selection of pens and inks and their salespeople are very helpful. When I asked an attendant what was popular these days, she pointed out the E95s. Instead, I got a mid-size Sailor 1911 with a Zoom nib (but that is a story for another day). I made a note to myself to look into the E95s in the future.
Well, today it arrived and I had no way of anticipating how much I would like it. One thing that I especially love is the beautiful balance of its design. The cap serves as the body of the pen, making the capped pen very compact.
Pilot notes this rerelease is based upon an original 1962 design and reflects the classic aesthetics of that period. At first glance, the nib's design reminds me of the kind that I saw on the Sheaffer Pen for Men...
The E95s lays ink down softly and lightly; it slides effortlessly across the paper. It is extremely comfortable and I have experienced no fatigue. It simply floats in my hand.
Highly recommend!
