A masterpiece of Japanese craftsmanship. Turned ebonite body hand-coated with Urushi lacquer and a majestic large-format 18K gold nib.

The Pilot Custom 845 is the pen that defines quiet luxury. Unlike mass-produced pens made of plastic or resin, the 845 is made of Ebonite (hard rubber), a natural material that is warm to the touch and extremely durable, which was used in antique pens in the early 20th century.

To protect and embellish the ebonite, Pilot's artisans apply multiple layers of black Urushi lacquer. This traditional Japanese finish not only gives it a deep, unmatched luster that improves with age, but also offers a “grip” feel in the hand that no synthetic material can replicate. It is a pen that feels “alive.”

Its Flat Top design gives it an imposing, executive presence, topped off with gold accents.

The Heart of the Beast: It features the exclusive 18K solid gold bicolor (gold and rhodium) nib in giant size #15. It is the same size as the Custom 823, but with the superior purity of 18K gold, offering a smooth, wet writing experience with a slight bounce that makes every signature a sensory experience.
