Could someone kindly inform me if the regular Sailor Jentle ink cartridges sold on Amazon will fit the Sailor 21 Pocket Pen, or does that pen require a special proprietary cartridge (not that the regular cartridges aren't already proprietary :P ). I'm thinking not, because they look longer than I remember, but then my memories are 35 years old. I really would like to put that pen back into the rotation.

There is also an Ebay seller (Japanese) who carries the Sailor "Nano" cartridges. The box for these looks a lot more familiar. I have queried him about this.

 

Stan, love your sig pic!

Vendor says that Sailor says that they'll fit, so I've ordered a box. I'll report further when they come in.

I've seen "slim" Sailor cartridges intended to use in the Chalana pen. The "nano" cartridges might refer to the nano particles of the ink, not size.

Probably. I don't recall that "nano" was in the vocabulary back in the '70s when I was living there. That said, the box looks like what I remember. We'll find out in a couple weeks if they fit.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
