These Pilot pens have helped enormously. A definite for Blackletter writing. The ink flow is good on good quality paper. If you write the individual letters in the correct manner the pens are easy to use. Review: Great size nib to start calligraphy. - As others have stated this is a quality pen, a great pen for calligraphy. The package was delivered intact and everything that was in the description was supplied, the ink cartridges are easy to install and a couple of gentle squeezes had the ink flowing smoothly. The pen is comfortable to hold and easy to adjust the angle to change the width of the stroke. A great pen and I highly recommend it and will be buying a smaller nib size once I have semi-mastered this one. ## Features - Brand : PILOT - Made in United Kingdom - Pilot parallel pen - 3.8 nib ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003L1YWSG | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | 42,532 in Stationery & Office Supplies ( See Top 100 in Stationery & Office Supplies ) 178 in Fountain Pens | | Body Shape | Cylindrical | | Brand Name | PILOT | | Closure Type | Click-Off Cap | | Colour | Green | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (1,172) | | Drill Point | Bold | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04902505192388 | | Grip Type | Contoured | | Included Components | 1 x PILOT Parallel Pen - 3.8 Nib, FPEPP3.8 | | Ink Base | Water | | Ink Colour | Black, Red | | Is the Product Left or Right Handed? | Ambidextrous | | Item Dimensions | 50 x 50 x 28 centimetres | | Item Type Name | Calligraphy Fountain Pen Parallel Pen Green | | Item Weight | 0.04 Kilograms | | Line Size | 3.8mm | | Manufacturer | PILOT | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Name | FP3 - 38 | | Model Number | RTL100012388J1 | | Product Warranty | No | | Recommended Uses For Product | Calligraphy | | Special Features | Refillable | | Style | 3.8 mm | | Theme | calligraphy | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | | Writing Instrument Form | Fountain Pen | | Writing Technique | Fountain Pen | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** Adult - **Brand:** PILOT - **Colour:** Green - **Ink colour:** Black, Red - **Material:** Plastic - **Model name:** FP3 - 38 - **Point type:** Bold - **Special feature:** Refillable - **Unit count:** 1.0 count - **Writing instrument form:** Fountain Pen ## Images ![Parallel Pen 3.8 mm - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41DjpaWqXjL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Item Package Quantity** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does anyone know if there is an ink converter for this pen?** A: Yes, there is a converter called Pilot CON-40. **Q: Can this be used as a dip pen (like to dip it in the ink?)** A: No I wouldn't recommend using it this way. The pen uses a flow of ink and a failure of supply 'mid-flourish' would spoil the effect. **Q: Hi. Has anyone used this pen, the 3.8 nib with a converter? If so which one? Thanks.** A: Even if you find a converter you will need to be careful which ink you use. I use the Pilot Parallels daily and use either the proprietary cartridges, or treat them as dip pens. Both work fine. Replacing the ink in the cartridge with a needle is easy, but most inks don't flow well through the mechanism. **Q: Is the ink black or green? Not clear on the description.** A: The ink is the colour of the cartridge you place in your pen. The green colour of your pen does not determine the colour of your ink. This pen actually comes with two coloured inks and you can purchase more colours or black only cartridge packs compatible with the pen separately. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect Pen for Calligraphy *by P***B on 17 February 2026* Calligraphy is a hobby of mine.

Worthwhile trying on different papers to minimise feathering because it puts a lot of ink onto the surface. Excellent though when you get used to it. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pilot FP3-38 3.8mm Parallel Pen (Pack of 1), green - Pilot FP3-24 Parallel 2.4mm Pen (Pack of 1), yellow - Pilot Refills Parallel - 12 Colors Assorted Fountain Pen Cartridge - P77312 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/48705402-parallel-pen-3-8-mm](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/48705402-parallel-pen-3-8-mm) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
