The Pilot Custom 845 Fountain Pen - Vermillion brings together traditional Japanese urushi lacquer and Pilot's flagship writing performance in a quietly commanding silhouette. Its deep red finish glows with a warmth that only urushi over ebonite can achieve, while the large 18k gold nib delivers the confident smoothness that has made the Custom series a benchmark among enthusiasts.

Craftsmanship & Design

Built on an ebonite core and finished with layers of natural urushi, the vermillion surface reveals a rich, organic luster that subtly shifts with the light. Gold-plated trim and an engraved cap band frame the lacquered body with restrained elegance, highlighting the pen's balanced proportions and purposeful presence. The shape is classic Pilot: refined, substantial in hand, and comfortable over long sessions.

Urushi has been prized in Japan for centuries for its durability and depth, and on the Custom 845 it provides both visual resonance and a tactile warmth uncommon in modern pens. The craftsmanship is evident in the seamless transitions, crisp metalwork, and the even, glassy finish that rewards close inspection.

Writing Experience

At the heart of the Custom 845 is Pilot's No. 15 18k gold nib, tuned for consistent flow and a graceful touch on the page. It writes with a smooth, controlled feel that favors precision without sacrificing softness. Choose from fine, medium, broad, or double broad to suit anything from compact annotation to expansive signatures.

The proprietary cartridge/converter system offers everyday practicality with the option of bottled inks. Paired with Pilot's reliable feed and the pen's well-judged weight distribution, the result is a composed, fatigue-free experience that remains steady from the first line to the last.

Brand Heritage

Since 1918, Pilot has refined the interplay of nib, feed, and form in its Japanese workshops, shaping instruments that earn their place in regular rotation as well as in collections. The Custom 845 stands near the pinnacle of that lineage, uniting time-honored urushi finishing with the brand's modern precision in a pen built to be used and appreciated for years.

Worked on slow leak… one month already!!!
Style: 18oz
Edit: Still holding proper pressure at 2-months !!! Had a slow leak where my tire went from 44psi to ~18psi over 2-3 days… Dashboard light would let me know every few days that I had a tire problem and I would inflate the tire back up to 44psi… Anyway, I used this product and filled air back to 44 psi and it’s held the pressure for a month already !!!! Be sure to deflate tire to ~15 PSI before adding the product… it only took about 30 seconds to empty the container into my tire with the tire pressure low. Very happy with this product !!!

Effective temporary fix
Style: 18oz, Style: 18oz
The slim brand has always been an genuine effective fix. I have been using slime since I used to ride on bicycles. Well it is not a permanent fix for if you have a hole in your inner tube it is a great fix to hold you over until you are able to get to either the mechanic or to your local store to get a replacement inner tube. Overall, it's worth every penny and you get plenty in the canister that it comes in depending on which slime you are getting whether that's the plastic bottle for your inner tubes for a bicycle or the metal canister as I've shown in my picture for your SUVs trucks or vans. However I don't give this an entire five stars but more of four stars not because of their product but because resorting to using slime rather than fixing the problem is more of my own problem. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 👍👍

Don't buy doesn't work
Style: 18oz, Style: 18oz
Terrible did nothing. Even tried to let wheel turn 360 degrees yet the solution get in the tire leak proper. Directions on can differ from instructions on here/Amazon. I followed directions on can EXACTLY and still didnt even hold one PSI of air. I'd be better off burning the $10 for warmth rather then waste it this way
