A minimal everyday pen, over-engineered to last generations.
The ultimate pen for illustrators, designers, and architects.
Precision machined to create a piston-like effect between the pen and sleeve. The pen falls slowly and makes a nice popping sound when you pull it quickly from its sleeve.
No visible logo.
Precision machined flat so it won't roll off your desk.
A super minimal everyday pen, engineered to last generations.
The ultimate pen for illustrators, designers, and architects.
The ultra-high machining tolerances between the pen and sleeve create a piston-like effect. The pen falls slowly into its sleeve and makes a nice popping sound when you pull it out quickly.
Pen Type-B has no visible logo.
The brass sleeve purposely doesn't have a coating, so your Pen Type-B can develop its own unique patina over time as you handle your pen.
Titanium Pen Type-B is available with a matte black ceramic-polymer coating (Cerakote). The coating is durable, but over time it will wear to reveal the titanium underneath. We think it gives a kind of cool and rugged feel.
Pen Type-B in titanium weighs almost half the weight of its brass and stainless steel counterpart. It's got the hardness of stainless steel and the lightness of aluminum. That's really hard to beat. Titanium is the ultimate material. Both the sleeve and the pen are made of titanium.
Order a Pen Type-B with a custom laser engraving on the flat surface of the pen sleeve.
Available with an aluminum case.

MADE IN THE USA
Pen Type-B (along with all of our other pens) are manufactured at a multi-generation machine shop in Vermont. Each pen is carefully made above and beyond the necessary tolerances to ensure a perfect fit between the pen and the sleeve. It takes over 20 highly tuned operations to craft a Pen Type-B.

To replace the ink cartridge, simply unscrew the back of the pen with a coin.

THANK YOU!
once in a while, you come across products that change your appreciation for a whole category. CW&T disrupted the category of writing/drawing instruments for me, the approach to simplicity and taking away without loosing the necessary or loosing productivity. in fact their product design inspire you to use and interact with them. everything they do, deserves a podium or display case. and you don’t just want one… my wish list proves it.
United StatesCerakote and CS
I echo the info another buyer posted about the orange cerakote. While it is beautiful and the design is great, it is BY FAR the weakest cerakote coating I have experienced. Even small drops cause chipping which started almost immediately upon receiving the pen. I have owned multiple other pens with cerakote finishing, and have dropped all of them on the ground even onto concrete floors with no flaking or visible damage to the coating. I've treated this one extremely carefully but the coating on this Pen type b with orange gets damaged and chipped even if dropped onto my desk the wrong way... Not at all what I expected from cerakote. Even putting the pen cartridge into the sleeve chips the cerakote around the opening. Additionally, when I tried to message about the issue, I did not receive a response when I messaged through the website, and was left on "read" when I messaged via Instagram. It would have been great if some communication was maintained (I'm still open to communication). This was an expensive purchase.
United KingdomBest pen I owned - however the cartridge leaking is a problem :s
Hello, anyone had an issue with the ink leaking from cartridge and creating a mess? It is my favorite pen by a mile -- but the ink leaking from Pilot refills is constant and I am not sure what causes it; could all the 5 carthridges I swapped in various countries be faulty? Or there is an issue with a metal pen tip "piercing" the cartridge? Aide moi svp!
United StatesSecond Type-B
Have had my first Type-B (brass) for several years, but have always had my eye on the lighter-weight titanium version. Love both of them, use every day. Really love what you folks are doing, keep it up!
ThailandAMAZING AND ICONIC PRODUCT
AMAZING, This pen is wayyyy better than the pen type-a. It looks so amazing and beautiful. I love it although it writes poorly but everything is good. It still makes that interesting sound like the type a. Buying this pen is definitely better than buying those expensive pens like parker or waterman. It’s expensive but it is worth its price (if it writes better and supports many refils). Overall, very unique and amazing
