[KAYOU+](https://kayouplus.com/?ref=news.knockology.com) is marking its first anniversary with **3,000 AIMVISION Edition\_001** [**KOHAKU**](https://prtimes.jp/main/html/rd/p/000000015.000158242.html?ref=news.knockology.com) **sets**, each built around a numbered [AIMVISION PRO](https://kayouplus.com/brand/aimvision%5Fpro/?ref=news.knockology.com) mechanical pencil. Japanese release is scheduled for **July 25**, at **¥22,000 including tax**.

The July 7 announcement puts the pencil at the center of a five-item collection: a dedicated cowhide case, combined ruler and letter opener, adjustable eraser case and A5 notebook accompany it. Sales are planned through selected KAYOU+ stockists.

## A finish built around the brass

KOHAKU takes its color direction from amber. KAYOU says the finish combines the underlying brass color with gradient paint and a clear coating intended to reduce discoloration. Each pencil carries a serial number.

The product decision goes beyond recoloring an existing pencil: KAYOU is selling a coordinated collection at one package price. That positions the anniversary release differently from a standalone instrument. Buyers are paying for the supporting tools as well as the numbered pencil.

## What the other four items add

The eraser case adjusts and locks the exposed length. The A5 notebook uses a 5 mm grid with 2.5 mm guide lines and sewn binding. Those are useful distinctions in a package that asks buyers to take a complete desk set rather than only the pencil.

KAYOU+ describes Edition\_001 as the beginning of a way to record brand milestones. The announced limit is 3,000 complete sets, each with a numbered pencil—not 3,000 of each color or an open-ended anniversary range. The box gives the pencil quite an entourage, but it also defines the purchase.
