Sailor 1911 Black Luster Fountain Pen Review
Product Review of the Sailor 1911 Black Luster Fountain Pens
I love Sailor fountain pens so I was immediately drawn to the Sailor 1911 Black Luster fountain pen when it came out. The entire pen is "blacked out" with an ion plated nib and metal accents and a glossy black resin cap and barrel.
Branding on the pen is very subtle which I like. Around the bottom of the cap is a thick band of the ion plated black rhodium. The band is etched with "Sailor Japan Founded 1911". Because of the black color it is hard to read without holding the pen close. From a distance it simply looks like a pattern etched into the band. The only other branding is on the nib which is etched with the Sailor anchor style logo and 1911 just above it. 21K and Sailor are also etched very small below the anchor next to the grip of the pen.
The cap of the pen is threaded and must be unscrewed to remove it. I do prefer the snap off style cap for quicker access to the pen but the threads are of a high tolerance and run smooth. To post the cap you simply press it on the end of the barrel, no threads needed there.

Pros of the Sailor 1911 Black Luster Fountain Pen
- Weighted Grip section for great balance.
- Smooth 21k gold nib.
- Blackout finish looks fantastic.
Cons of the Sailor 1911 Black Luster Fountain Pen
- Price. May be a bit expensive for some writers.
