Sailor Recycled Material Desk Fountain Pen - Extra Fine Nib - SAILOR 11-0073-120

I love this pen. The line is thin and the pen has a smooth feeling on Rhodia paper. Yes, there is a slight feeling of friction, but that is to be expected from an extra fine nib, and the friction is pleasant, not detracting from the writing experience.

The line thickness produced by this pen's Extra Fine nib has a noticeable difference from the line thickness produced by a Sailor Fine nib, such as the one in the High Ace Neo.

The ink that comes included with this pen, in the form of a cartridge, is also very good ink in that it is fast-drying and a real black.
Pilot Hi-Tec-C Cavalier Gel Ink Pen - 0.4 mm - Silver Accents - Black Body - PILOT LCA-1SRC4-B

I love this pen. The inner ink tube of the regular Hi Tec C available in Canada do NOT fit into the Cavalier body.

Still, this is an incredibly smooth pen with a very fine line. I never feel scratchiness!!! It has a nice weight, and the cap has a nice sound when you cap it and a pleasant click when you cap the pen.

This is the pen I use when writing in my Leucheturm journal.

My only issue is that it is thin, but not a major issue for me. I would love to order the blue body pen, if only Pilot made it again.

Sailor HighAce Neo Beginner's Fountain Pen - Steel Nib - Fine - Blue Body - SAILOR 11-0116-240
  This is a wonderful pen...., July 31, 2012
This is a wonderful pen. It is not as fine as a Pilot, which is good in my opinion. This pen, for me, produces what a fine line should be. It gives a wonderfully smooth feeling when I write with it in my Moleskine or Rhodia notebook.


The pen does have a plastic body, but I still think the colour is attractive.

Consider this...this is my second favourite pen because of how it feels when I write. My favourite pen is a Sailor with a 24K gold nib. But the Neo is a close second. I recommend this to everyone reading this review.
