Rare Sailor Nagahara King Eagle Nib on a KOP Black Ebonite Fountain Pen

Nagahara King Eagle Nib: Triple layered Nib with unique design on the tipping provides a very juicy broad horizontal stroke and a fine tip in the upside-down position.

Mr Nagahara (Senior) is the creator of Sailor’s “Specialty Nibs”

Sailor's specialty nibs often share this property of offering varying line width depending up on the angle at which they are held. Inspired by the art of Japanese brush painting, artists often find these nibs quite useful. And like the Zoom, most specialty nibs offer interesting results when used in the upside-down position as well.

The King Eagle Nibs are complex and innovative, because this Nibs are layered-three nibs are stacked on top of each other and they are capable of great variation and scope, producing fine top of tip lines and juicy, triple broad cross strokes.

Mr Nagahara developed the series of Nibs that now bear his name when he was only 16 years old in 1948.

In the nib production section at Sailor's Hiroshima headquarters. He acquired his skills and techniques from senior associates during those post-war years. The first Naginata-togi sword nibs were made at pen clinics at the specific request of customers. Demand increased, as many Japanese customers wanted a fountain pen capable of emulating "small brush" calligraphy. In time, the demand for these unique nibs spread throughout the world.
