How about the PILOT Baile fountain pen brand introduction

When it comes to innovation in practical functions, no brand can compete with Baile. Among the Japanese fountain pen brands, Shule occupies the first place with the Chinese character artifact long knife research, and Baile dominates the low-end market with a wide variety of special-shaped nibs, and is the largest stationery manufacturer in Japan. According to the annual financial report of Baile and Writing, Baile has a total of 25 subsidiaries around the world, and the total assets are more than 20 times that of Writing, which is larger than Chenguang. For fountain pen products alone, there are no less than 25 series of Bile.
 
Baile started with a wood fountain pen, and can still occupy a huge market in the era of fountain pen decline, in addition to the full category layout of writing instruments, but also thanks to the low-price strategy. Baile's mass-produced fountain pens are mainly aimed at the low-end market, so the writing sense of the product is hard and slippery and easy to use, and the damping feeling is not as strong as that of Writing Music and Platinum. There are many choices at the price of 100 yuan, from the "sketch artifact" Kali Guifei series and the "entry cute" smiley face series within 70 yuan, to the FP-78G and 88G series of about 100 yuan, there are many brands of low-end fountain pens, but the product line can be so rich, and the quality of writing can be guaranteed, the first choice is Baile.
 
In the mid-range price range, Baile is also not lacking in competitiveness. In addition to the classic 14K Bright Tip Custom 74 series, the Elite 95s series is the most recommended. The Elite 95s series is the most differentiated work in the 600 yuan price range, which reproduces the Elites released in 1968, reducing 18K to 14K, retaining the iconic semi-embedded nib, and improving the defect that the Caffer embedded nib feels slightly sticky. With a cap length of 119 mm and a body weight of 15 grams, it is perfect for carrying around, making it a great gift for entering school and celebrating your job in Japan.
 
At the price of 1,000 yuan, Write Le 21K At present, Baile's works are difficult to compete with their appearance and writing, but with several playable pens including the Capless series, they also have a place. Invented in 1963 by Parker with a retractable nib pen that prevents ink leakage and ink drying, the Capless series has revolutionized the world's perception of fountain pens and is still a global bestseller for more than half a century. At present, there are three sub-series of Capless, Capless fermo and Capless decimo, the fermo uses the original rotary tip design, and the other two are pressed out of the tip. The decimo has a thinner barrel and is the most suitable product in the Capless series for daily use. The three series cover the vast number of consumer groups in parallel, and the nib uses 18K gold tip, which can also achieve a soft and smooth writing feeling, and is full of sincerity at the price of 1,000 yuan.
 
Another model that has to be mentioned at the price of 1,000 yuan is the Justus 95s series that was played by pen pals. The Justus 95s series has a long nib slit, and the length and thickness of the nib can be changed with a piece of metal that can be adjusted to pop length, so that the nib can fine-tune the hardness and elasticity according to personal preferences and writing needs, and the playability is very strong, and the price is less than 2000 yuan.
 
In today's trend of blindly pursuing domineering Damingjian, Baile is a rare brand that is willing to tinker with the creativity of the nib, and the quality control of the nib is also advantageous among the three major Japanese factories. Because the appearance is not outstanding, it is not recommended as a gift, but it is still very worthwhile to.
