Sailor Fountain Pen Music Nib Review


notVirtuThe3rd

Recommended Posts

Another great review. There are few other topics where the posters compared various music nibs, but I wasn't convinced yet about the Sailor. I have a Naginata Togi on my Pro Gear but I'm sending it in to get the flow fixed (very bad flow problems). Your review, however, made me confident that my next Sailor is going to have a music nib (on a Burgundy Pro Gear Realo body? :puddle:

 

Thanks!

Awesome review! I have developed a huge appreciation for Sailor. I only have one, the 1911 Realo, but it's such a perfect pen. Wow.

 

I've seen lots of your videos. You're doing a great job for the FPN community. Thanks so much!!!

Yes! I saw your video and it gave the best comparison of the two nibs I'd seen yet. When I first got my Naginata Togi I had suspicions that it really works best for written Japanese and other Asian characters. I went with it anyway but I realize its just not what I really need. The flow problem however doesn't have to do with using the pen -- strangely enough, its the first Sailor pen I've ever encountered with a problem. Hopefully Sailor will sort it out when I send it back for repair.

      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
