Review: Pilot Pensemble Roll Pen Case
I didn't know that Pilot makes pen cases also, but I guess that's not too surprising.
This is the Pilot Pensemble roll pen case designed to hold fountain pens. There are two colour options available, black and brown.
The pen case comes in just a simple cardboard box. Smell of the leather permeates the air when I take it out.
It's made of soft cowhide leather which makes it really easier to roll up. You secure the case with the leather string that can go around.
The inside is laid with soft interior to protect the pens. There are two flaps covering 5 pockets. In the photo above, I've put in the Platinum 3776, Namiki Falcons, Sailor 1911 and Lamy Safari Vista. The Lamy Safari Vista is the largest among those pens and there's still space about 1.5cm to the top.
Two of the pockets are larger than the other three. You can fit two smaller fountain pens into one big pocket if you want, like I did in the photo above. But if you want full protection, it should be one pen in each pocket of course.
The pockets are high enough to cover half of the pen cap. Each pen sits snugly in the pocket.
The stitching and overall quality is top notch. The Pensemble roll pen case offers excellent protection for fountain pens.
This is definitely a luxurious item as it's quite pricy compared to typical canvas roll pen cases. The good thing is this is a quality product and looks durable so in the long term, it's still good value for money.
If you want to over indulge yourself, this is a fantastic pen case to get.
