Sailor Professional Gear fountain pen have long been a proven writer, its 21K nib is one of the smoothest around.

I came across this Professional Gear Crimson Red fountain pen which was made exclusively for a retailer in Japan and the quantity produced is limited. The apart from the Crimson red color resin, the cap of the pen is decorated with a Japanese “Kanji” character which literally mean “RED”. Unlike the usual blue jewelry box, this pen comes with a very nice wood packaging. I have taken detail pictures and you will be able to check out the pen with the Kanji character on the cap area.
