Among my favorite writers, because they are large yet lightweight, is the Sailor King of Pen in ebonite, which according to "Fountain Pens of Japan" Sailor originally called Vulcanite. The ones here include two discontinued models: first-generation KoP with barrel & cap bands. Oddly, its cartridge-converter housing is considerably longer than those I have seen on all subsequent KoP models, even older bandless ebonite KoPs. The second is a bandless red & black ebonite with a Mike Masuyama custom XXF nib. Though it is razor thin, the nib writes a remarkably smooth line. Finally, there is a current production bandless model with rhodium trim & rhodium coated nib. Enjoy your weekend. Stay healthy.
