About Sailor
Sailor is a Japanese pen manufacturer first established in 1911 and is world-renowned for the quality of their writing instruments.
The Sailor Hocoro is a brilliantly simple dip pen that rewards close attention. Unscrew the nib to swap sizes, then flip it into the barrel for storage—no cap required.
It's lightweight and comfortable to hold, designed for the ritual of dipping rather than constant filling.
Use it with Dipton inks, or add the optional reservoir to write longer between dips.
The nib tucks away neatly for travel, keeping the delicate tip protected.
