“Sleek Black Beauty” Sailor King of Pen in Ebonite with rhodium trim. This big and beautiful flagship of the Sailor line measures approximately 153 mm long capped, 132 mm uncapped, and has a section diameter of 13 mm and barrel diameter of 15.5 mm. Despite its size, the capped pen weighs only 34 grams. Filling is by cartridge converter, with converter included.

The huge 21K gold nib is a Medium and writes beautifully. The pen is accompanied by its large wood box, papers, polishing cloth, and unused bottle of ink.

The pen has been very lightly used. The only issue to mention is that the edge of the box lid cracked off and has been glued back in place. This is clearly shown in one of the photos below.

The pen has been reviewed by Brian Anderson, SBRE Brown, and David (“Figboot on Pens”) and you can find their video reviews here:
