"Sailor was founded in 1911 in Hiroshima, Japan, by Kyugoro Sakata, becoming one of the country’s earliest fountain pen manufacturers. Renowned for meticulous craftsmanship, Sailor produces many of its gold nibs in-house, including distinctive 14k and 21k options. Popular models such as the 1911 series and the Professional Gear (Pro Gear) line are celebrated for their classic design and writing precision. Their specialty nibs including Music and Zoom are prized for expressive, characterful writing. A Sailor pen appeals to those who value refined feedback, exceptional nib quality, and over a century of Japanese writing heritage."
Amazing pen only matched by the staff behind Pen Venture!
Despite ordering internationally, their team made the entire experience feel personal and genuinely appreciated. The attention to detail and the hand written note, lovely!
The pen itself is exceptional. It writes like it punches well above its weight class and has genuinely changed the way I look at modern fountain pens. An outstanding writing instrument backed by equally outstanding customer service. Highly recommended!
