For your consideration, we are offering for sale this 2021 Sailor 110th Anniversary Limited Edition 664/1100 Kurogane Black Stainless Steel Fountain Pen fitted with a 21K Hard Medium (H-M) Two-Tone Gold Nib. This Fountain Pen has never been inked, comes with all the original boxes and documentation, and I consider it in Brand New, Mint, New Old Stock Condition.
In celebration of its 110th anniversary in 2021, Sailor introduced the Kurogane—a true masterpiece and milestone in the brand’s storied history. This exceptional writing instrument showcases a groundbreaking electrolytic coloration technology that produces a rich, deep black finish while preserving the pen’s metallic character. Unlike traditional plating or paint, this advanced technique forms an ultra-thin black oxide layer directly on the surface, using light interference to render the color. As a result, the finish will not peel or fade, offering exceptional durability and resistance to the elements.
The Kurogane maintains the natural feel of metal while achieving what Sailor calls an “unfading black”—a color born from a perfect balance of elegance, performance, and innovative design. It elevates both the aesthetic and tactile experience of the pen, embodying Sailor’s relentless pursuit of excellence. With its fusion of time-honored craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology, the Kurogane stands as a bold statement of prestige and an inspiring symbol of Sailor’s enduring commitment to innovation.
This Sailor fountain pen is in flawless condition, showing no cracks, nicks, scratches, or signs of repair. The cap threads securely onto the barrel, ensuring a tight and reliable closure every time. While the design omits a traditional clip, the top of the cap is subtly flattened to prevent the pen from rolling when placed on a flat surface. Substantial in size, this is a larger fountain pen, measuring 6 1/4 inches capped, with a barrel diameter of approximately 17.02mm at its widest point and a solid, comfortable weight of 2.60 ounces. The end of the barrel displays the limited edition number, "0664/1100," and Japan. The top of the cap displays the iconic Sailor Anchor logo.
The Nib is 21K gold and marked, "110th, Sailor Anchor logo, 21K, 875." Stamped on the shoulder of the NIB are the letters, "H-M" for a Hard Medium nib point. The actual tipping measures .71mm when measured with digital calipers. This fountain pen has never been inked and I wanted to keep it this way for the new owner.
The end of the barrel is stamped with the limited edition number 890/1000 and Japan.
The Sailor uses an ink converter or ink cartridges to write with. I have tested the ink converter with water, and it works as it was designed.
This Sailor comes with the original 110th Anniversary wooden box, all the Sailor Literature, ink cartridges, polishing cloth, and pen sleeve. The box is in mint condition, like the pen.
The Sailor 110th Anniversary Fountain Pen is, without a doubt, a sleek and modern design. It has never been inked and is in Mint, New Old Stock condition. Here's your chance to own this beautiful Sailor 110th Anniversary Kurogane Fountain Pen and add it to your writing arsenal collection - you won't find one better!
