The Sailor Hocoro combines the features of a traditional dip pen and a fountain pen. Unlike standard dip pens, the nib is designed similarly to a fountain pen, providing a smooth feel on paper. This makes it easy to write small, detailed letters and create fine illustrations.
The barrel is made of durable resin, specifically designed to withstand impacts if the pen is accidentally dropped. Another practical feature is that the nib can be stored inside the shaft when not in use.
To load the pen with the right amount of ink, dip the nib until the "heart hole" is covered, then wipe off any excess ink against the edge of the ink bottle.
This pen comes with a 1.0 mm nib.
