Pro Gear Slim Manyo #2 Fountain Pen Set | Rabbit Ear Iris | Limited Edition

Sailor’s lovely limited edition Manyo pen series was designed to accompany their popular Manyo inks, whose lovely shades are inspired by Japanese plants and flowers. Each Manyo pen draws on two ink colors, one for the barrel of the pen and one for its finials.

The Rabbit Ear Iris pen is a translucent purple color with purpley-pink cap and finials, inspired by their magenta Manyo Akebi ink and greyish-purple Manyo Kakitsubata ink. It has gold trim, and the cap features a gold iris-shaped finial in place of Sailor’s anchor logo. This pen has a 14k gold nib and comes with a bottle of Sailor’s Manyo Kakitsubata ink.

Sailor’s Pro Gear Slim fountain pen is a comfortable mid-sized pen, small enough to fit in a pocket but long enough for comfortable everyday use. It’s got a classic shape with a flat-top cap and a round barrel and grip, and comes with a converter and ink cartridges to get you started. Sailor makes their gold nibs in-house, and they’re known for being exceptionally precise, with a unique feedback sensation. (Note that they run on the fine side, like other Japanese fountain pen nibs.)

Staff pick! Victor says: “This was my first entry into high-end fountain pens. It fits comfortably in my smaller hand and I really enjoy the gentle and smooth pencil-like feedback as the nib runs across the paper. It’s always exciting to see their beautiful new limited editions and oh-so difficult to hold back from collecting them all.”
