Named in honour of the year that Sailor was founded, the 1911 is Sailor's signature fountain pen and a standout in the world of prestige Japanese pens. Combining the elegant torpedo shape with high-quality craftsmanship and materials, the 1911 is a must-have in any fountain pen collection. The Large 1911 is fitted with a 21k gold nib engraved with Sailor's anchor logo for a smooth writing experience. The solid glossy black resin barrel and cap are complemented by gold-plated accents. The Lefty is specially designed for left handed writers as the nib has a pronounced round shape that is cut on the left side to accommodate the writing style. It comes in a Sailor box with two black cartridges and a converter. Sailor fountain pens use proprietary converters and cartridges .
