Product Description
Type Modern fountain pen
Product Name Sailor 1911 Realo - Standard Size
Manufacturer and Year Sailor, Japan. This model is currently being sold.
Length 5-9/16"
Filling System Piston filler. The piston turns very smoothly.
Color Maroon with gold plated trim (we'd call it burgundy, but it seems to be called maroon by most online sellers).
Nib 21k H-EF (hard extra-fine) gold nib. It's firm and smooth, with the typical feedback of a Sailor nib. Note that the Sailor extra-fine nibs come to a very small point at the tip of the nib, so you'll only want to use the lightest pressure to write with it. Too much pressure will cause the nib to slice into the paper, and the nib will likely pick up paper fibers as well. Please don't order this pen if you are not confident that it is right for you, these nibs are extremely fine and require a light touch. If the nib gets damaged, we cannot issue a refund.
Condition Beautiful, almost like new. As far as we can tell, the pen has never been inked, though it's possible that it may have been dipped. With magnification, you can see only microscratching on the cap and barrel. No brassing or plating wear on any of the trim. Ships with box and paperwork.
