  • A fude nib needs a fude pen

    Well it took about two seconds after learning that there is such a thing as a Fude nib that I placed an order on the Sailor Fude De Mannen (green). Skipping the research before buying didn’t hurt too badly but the initial impression when I got the pen in mail was that it felt too light and flimsy, freakishly long and expensive for what it is; an all (and very thin) plastic pen without a converter. It does however come with two long cartridges of black ink. What adds injury to insult is that Sailor uses proprietary cartridge/converters so if this is your first Sailor and don’t have any of their converters around, you might want to think again about getting this pen. I had also bought some fude nibbed Jinhao pens and a Hero 9058 so compared to those the Sailor really feels like it’s going to take off with the slightest breeze. However, it didn’t take a long writing and drawing session to start to appreciate both the length and lightness of the Sailor. Instead of getting line variation by adding pressure, you have to adjust the angle of the pen and if you have a small but heavy pen, like a Jinhao X750, you’ll quickly find your fingers exhausted. The nib is bent very sharply and there is no soft and gradual transition from a thin to thick line. It seems to be really thin sheet of metal and it may contribute to an occasional scratchiness when making horizontal strokes. The much thicker Jinhao fude nibs feel smoother but at the same time more brutish. There is a certain feline grace to the feather light Sailor. Writing with the nib reversed produces a useful and very fine line but expect it to skip now and then since the sweet spot for reverse operation is rather an on off type. I considered buying a converter for the pen but after using it for a while I decided the fude experience at the moment didn’t deserve the investment. Instead, I will chop up one of the cartridges that come along inside the pen and glue a standard international converter on it to make a converter with a Sailor compatible, large opening, mouthpiece. And finally, I do like the flat green finish and the golden letters of the barrel. It is the longest and thinnest pen I have and it does have a unique appearance, which has actually grown on me.

  • Handy Art Pen

    This purchase was shipped timely, the pen was new, easy to use and just right for my art purpose. It makes a thicker line with its specialty nib. Be sure to buy extra ink tubes. Good experience with this order.

  • A great pen for drawing/sketching and calligraphy

    The two versions of the Sailor Fude de Mannen Fountain Pens are very popular because of their unique bent-tipped nibs, which allow for an incredible amount of line variation in a fairly cheap, refillable pen. There aren't a lot of options in this price range for pens that can offer the amount of line variation these pens do. The two different styles - each has a different color body - has a nib bent at a different angle. Writing with the tip of the pen - with the pen at its most perpendicular angle to the page - will create a very fine line. As you angle the pen from 90 degrees perpendicular to the page down towards 45 degrees, your line will get increasingly thicker until it reaches the thickest line it can make, which looks more like a brush mark or a Sharpie marker. This is why these pens are great for calligraphy. They are made to somewhat simulate a brush stroke. Sailor also makes a converter, the SAILOR 14-0500-000, which fits in these pens, so that you can use whatever ink you'd like instead of cartridges.

  • A pen for artists. It works like a sumi brush!

    This is a very nice pen, and to be fair, it can go through a lot of ink. Great part, for people who enjoy Chinese and Japanese brush work, this pen can replicate the strokes without the clean up of the brush immediately afterword. It is best of artwork and Asian scripts. Doesn't easily move the right way for English script. I expect it will take me a while to master this pen, but I am so very glad I bought it.

  • Really worth trying - lovely and fun

    Works perfectly (I flushed the nib with water and a drop of detergent before using the fountain pen), everything I was hoping for after having watched Youtube videos and read blog posts on this product, and even more. I do recommend ordering a Sailor converter because this fountain pen will consume ink quite quickly. The ink that is included (Sailor ink) is very black, beautiful, and water soluble.
