Sailor 12-0332-340 Fountain Pen, Reckle, Iron Blue, Medium Point

Excellent pen at a reasonable price . I recommend it to anyone who is looking for a quality fountain pen.

The basic Sailor fountain pens (Lecoule and the round ended version, which has several names depending on market) are fantastically reliable and exceptionally good writers. The only real shortcoming is that they are only available in a fine nib width, but if you're OK with a line between Japanese and European fine, then you owe it to yourself to try one!This edition is in a deep teal, with black chrome trim, I'm not usually a fan of black trim, but this color combo is great, it looks dark and subdued, not wannabe "tactical".So far my first Profit Jr. (Compass in US market) has been inked continuously for over 2 years, never flushed, often left unused for weeks at a time, but has never failed to write at the first touch... this is as good as fountain pens get as far as pure function goes, regardless of price!In comparison to my other modern Sailor pens, these steel nibs have all been smoother than the gold nibs, though firmer as well.Very highly recommended!!

I think these pense behave like a more expensive fountain pen. It is a really good value for the money.

Really beautiful color combo. Love the blue with the darker hardware. Nib is stiff and pen is too lightweight given the price point and misses on the quality feel - there are other better writers out there and higher value pens with overall better balance. This will sit on the office desk but probably not get much use compared to the affordable TWSBIs and Lamy Safaris that are half the price and better daily use pens. Style over substance on this one and not quite worth the price tag.

The nib has a scratchy feel but it puts down a reliable line. Pair this one Sailor Shikiori Kamoshika ink.
