I thought I loved Sailor before I owned this pen, but now I KNOW I love Sailor pens! This model is super light but well balanced, and it floats across a page. It will be my everyday splurge! My husband brought it back to me when he had to travel while I was going through a stressful time. He chose the bright colors to make me smile - and he was SO RIGHT - I smile with every stroke! It is a great fit for a mid-sized woman's hand.
