Description:
The full name of this pen is Sailor Pro Gear Slim Shikiori Sound of Rain series: Kirisame (Autumn Drizzle)! The Sound of Rain series was launched in 2021 as a limited edition of four Pro Gear Slim colours, two of which were translucent and two of which (including this one) had matte acrylic. This is a lovely moody purple with pale pink transparent finials. Unlike the usual Pro Gear Slim models, it has a 21k gold nib which was only available as a MF. I had this custom ground to a cursive italic by John Mottishaw at Nibs.com and it's one of my favourites, writing a lovely fine italic line.
It's a small pen - only 123 mm long capped and 110 uncapped. Posted it's 144 mm long. The grip section is 11 mm wide. Weight is 17g.
It's a cartridge converter model (included).
