About Sailor:

Sailor was founded in 1911. The founder Kyugoro Sakata was given a fountain pen by a friend returning from the UK after studying at the Royal Navy. He was inspired and determined to start making fountain pens in Japan. Sailor became the first fountain pen company in Japan, and earned many more firsts in Japan -- first ballpoint pen in 1948, first ink cartridge in 1954 and first brush pen in 1972, etc.

In the 1970's, Sailor made a popular beginner fountain pen, "Candy," that sold more than 15 million within a few years. However, the number of the fountain pen users were declining as ballpoint pens became more mainstream.

In 1981, Sailor decided to go in the opposite direction from their "Candy" pen and began focusing on producing a higher standard series, which is the 1911 series we see today. Their focus on making a higher standard provides a great foundation for their later series of pens. Today, Sailor makes one of the most diverse lines of nibs, some of which are designed for specific writing purposes such as writing musical notes to one that is best for character writing.

A must-try

I believe these are the same markers, in function, as the Sailor Shikiori dual tip markers? Maybe these special editions don't have the corresponding Sailor fountain pen inks, I dunno. I do know I am obsessed by them, they're magnificent. I mainly use the brush end (it's quite firm, offers a lot of control) over my finished art or sketching pages to add some text. The colors are just... so unusual and so very "Sailor"-- unexpected and interesting. I have the full Shikiori 20 marker set (along with open stock backups because I worry I'll run out). So when I saw Yoseka had a series of these 3-packs, an opportunity to add to my collection, I pounced. They are VERY water soluble so you can nearly paint with them if you so pleased. But I mainly work in watercolor so I must be sure my piece is fully dry before applying them... I'd actually prefer these were waterproof since I only want them for final lettering. But for me, these are one of those pens that seems to transform my handwriting, to make it look instantly better than it really is; over my years of art supply buying (and brush pen hoarding) I've encountered very few writing utensils I can say that about. So when you find one, it's magic. All the 3 pack sets are great, not just the cool-toned "Late Night Sandy Beach" set. Love em!! I suggest everyone try some as the value is excellent for a dual tip... but leave some for me as it's a bummer when they're sold out.
