Apparently, there is a company named Mitsubishi with the exact three-diamond logo as the car company.

Actually, there are a lot of companies named Mitsubishi in Japan. The one I’m talking about actually trades internationally as ‘Uni’. You know, the absolutely awesome Uni-ball pens? Yeah, they’ve made pencils for hundreds of years.

As a matter of fact, they had quite a rivalry (archive) in Japan with Tombow, making amazing stationary and writing tools of all shapes and sizes.

In researching all of this, I fell down a wikihole and learned that Mitsubishi, as of 2024, owns Lamy. Lamy is one of my favorite pen companies. I own several of their excellent fountain pens. I also learned that they have a new limited edition set of fountain pens for Harry Potter fans (🤤) and they make iPad compatible pens that look like Lamy Safari’s!
