Sailor Professional Gear: BACKGROUND, HISTORY & BRAND HERITAGE. Founded in 1911, Sailor is the Japanese oldest pen maker and still making new and innovative pens today.
In the beginning, Sailor makes fountain pens with the classic eye droppers and lever piston filler mechanism fountain pens. Famous and widely known as the innovator of the stationery world, in 1954 Sailor invented Japsn's first ink cartridges and introduced them in 1958. Because ink cartridge allowed fountain pen to be operational without the long body.The Sailor 1911 Large fountain pen, also known as 1911 Full-Size or Profit in some markets, is Sailor's flagship model and features an elegantly tapered design and the amazingly smooth-writing 21K nibs for which Sailor is world-renowned. Sailor has a company history stretching back to 1911, and a reputation for quality and value that few other pen manufacturers can ever hope to match. Special Colorway Yellow Candy: This pen is a special Exclusive colorway by Wancher in Collaboration with Sailor that features a stunning and a fun Yellow Candy demonstrator color with both a bight yellow demonstrator body & cap. Nib Quality: SAILOR 14K Gold NIB. This Progear has a mono-tone 14K nib.
It has a single slit, a round breather hole, and is engraved with 1911, 14K, the Sailor anchor, and in a gold-plated strip, some flourishes. The nib looks thin and long, which is pretty with a single gold-tone color for the best simplicity. Not surprisingly, the nib is a solid performer. The nib has consistent ink flow - with normal writing, there are no skips and hard starts. Sailor nibs are not typically scratchy, and this one is not, but they do offer some feedback. Personally, I like this feeling, and it's different than a super smooth'buttery' nib.It's a surprisingly wet writer, but not a gusher. The nib writes more like a Western finer version as it is a Japanese nib, and it is on the firm side, although it is not as rigid as I thought it would be. With regular writing and no pressure, the nib and feed keep up easily with long writing sessions and fast writing. With some pressure, the nib does offer a little bit of line variation.
Drying times are on the fast side, given the wetness and width of the nib. I found the feed dries out a little when you used some pressure, but of course, that's not what it is designed for. FEEL FREE TO CHOOSE THE NIB OPTION FROM: EXTRA FINE, FINE, MEDIUM FINE OR MEDIUM.
