Which of the Nagahara nibs is on the pen you used in this demo? Is that a Naginata-Togi? If so, which one specifically? I really like how that writes, but I know Sailor has a ton of different bespoke nib options.

You seriously can not go wrong with a MB 149.

So i'm not really a collector and have more to learn about pens, but from what i see the king of pen outshines the 149 in every aspect, so why would you take the 149 over it? the two have a near identical appearance, they are the same size, the king of pen seems to write smoother and you said it felt nicer, and the material of the king of pen was warmer in the hand. The only thing the 149 seems to have is the filling system and ink window. does that really make the difference?

love ur vids
-
what type of retard spends 500 to 900 bucks on a fucking pen
-
Do they also do a right-handed version?
-
...how did I get here?...
-
the king of pen looked like an easy winner from my untrained eye. I started watching videos on fountain pens yesterday.
-
This gives me those american psycho vibes
-
You can get a pack of bic for like a buck.
-
You can get a brand new 149 on Amazon for $565. Also there is a platinum-plated trimmed 149 now.
-
I'll sadly never own a Sailor King of Pen but i'm in love with it just from the videos i've watched, including yours. It's so beautiful and it looks like it would feel amazing to write with.

I heard something about a limited edition King of Pen that had a piston filler.
-
I bought the MontBlanc 149. And I love it.
-
The KOP with a King Eagle nib. No Montblanc marketing can compete with such a statement of supreme Japanese craftsmanship.
-
I own 2 Montblanc Meisterstück 149's one from the 80's/Early 90's in a Medium Nib & the other one is a 2013 with a Oblique Medium Nib and I love them but I would be interested in trying a Sailor King of Pen to see if it's worth getting as well. Great Video. Keep up the great work. Nick.

hey matt i have not seen sailor pen on first hand and im thinking of buying the king of pens version which one should i buy the one with the gold trim or rhodium ?
-
Does the Sailor 1911 large have the same nib as the king of pens? And what nib should I choose, when I'm used to a European medium nib from Lamy? I wouldn't mind a slightly broader nib, but I won't need it as a calligraphy pen so it shouldn't be too broad. Somewhere between European medium and European broad.
-
why pay 800 to get the knockoff when you can spend 100 more and get the real deal 149?
huehue -
I chose the Sailor King of Pen Cosmos Makie on top of black plastic and never looked back at Montblanc's precious plain black plastic.
