Product features

• Executive Design and Materiality: The Signature model elevates the ZENTO experience with a focus on form, function, and feel: "The form that is completed at the moment of writing": The central feature is the magnetic cap mechanism.
  The smooth, satisfying click as you pull the cap from the barrel is described by Mitsubishi Pen as "a breath before facing the 'Kaku' (writing)." The cap posts securely on the rear of the barrel, completing the pen's form for an optimized, balanced writing experience.
  
• Magnetic Cap: The signature feature is the magnetic cap, which detaches with a highly satisfying, smooth "click." The cap is designed to post securely on the end of the barrel, completing the pen's form and achieving a well-balanced weight distribution for comfortable, extended writing sessions.
• Premium Construction: The body is primarily constructed of metal (likely aluminum), providing a substantial yet well-balanced weight (approx. 21g capped).
  
• Silver Finish & Aesthetics: The silver model features a beautiful, cohesive aesthetic with a mostly matte metallic finish (often compared to a bright, bead-blasted micro-texture on steel) that gives it a sophisticated, modern, and "space-age" vibe.
• Ergonomic Grip: The grip section features a subtle, non-slip texture (often described as a hard plastic with an elastomer/rubbery feel) for a secure hold and comfort during longer writing sessions.
  
• Precision Writing with ZENTO Ink This pen is equipped with the newly developed, water-based ZENTO pigment ink, optimized for the extra-fine 0.38mm tip: Extra-Fine Precision: The 0.38mm tip delivers a thin, uniform line, making it ideal for detailed note-taking, complex planner layouts, or writing in small spaces, a preference common in Japanese stationery culture.
• Innovative ZENTO Ink Technology (The Core Experience): Like all pens in the ZENTO family, the Signature model features the new generation of water-based pigment ink.
• Cushioning Component (POA Surfactant): Acts as a buffer between the pen tip and the paper, reducing writing friction by approximately 40% compared to conventional Uni water-based pens. This is the source of the acclaimed "soft and smooth" writing feel
  
• Attraction Particles: Draws the ink together on the page, significantly reducing line feathering and bleed-through (show-through) on paper, resulting in clear, crisp lines.
  
• Pigment Ink: Provides superior water and light resistance, ensuring the intense black ink remains vivid and archival-safe over time.
  
• Premium metal body, magnetic cap mechanism that snaps securely when capped and posted.
