Sailor Professional Gear Imperial Black

While this is not the first time Sailor Japan launched a matt black finishing fountain pens, Imperial Black is their first truely all black fountain pen. Like the Parker Premium All Black Special Edition,  you can only see tone of black on this pen.


The clip, sections, metal accents are black in color.

Unlike Pilot All black which uses the standard nib in gold color, Sailor Professional Gear Imperial Black too uses standard 21 carat solid gold, but Sailor uses black nickel chrome plating to made in black in color.
We are always against Pilot calling their matt black Pilot Capless as All Black as the nib is gold in color.
The Sailor Professional Gear Imperial Black fountain pen comes in special hard board box and a bottle of standard Sailor black ink.

After looking at the Professional Gear Imperial Black, we still prefer the Parker Premium All Black Special Edition as an All Black fountain because of the different in materials and coating used.

It is currently available locally at major authorized retailers.
