Ohashido is a brand that has been in business since 1965, when the current operation was founded in Sendai.
It is a family business --the Uehara family-- currently in the hands of Yûichi Uehara. Nowadays, its pens are mostly made of ebonite and implement Sailor nibs.
The production of pens is anything but structured--there are no basic models, no model names,... What you see at the table set by Mr. Uehara is what you get. Sure you can order a pen, but that's another story.
