Introducing the Sailor TUZU Adjust fountain pen, designed for all writing styles and habits. With two innovative features, this pen dispels the belief that fountain pens are complex and difficult to use. Experience effortless writing and comfort like never before.

The "Rotating Nib Feature" lets you customize the nib and grip rotation to your liking, while the "Natural Fit Grip" ensures a comfortable writing experience for all finger sizes and positions. With 10-degree rotation options, you can find the perfect hand position while maintaining proper nib alignment on paper. Additionally, the rounded grip has two grooves for easy and comfortable holding. The TUZU Adjust is versatile in accommodating left-handed writers, steep angles, and various gripping habits.

This sustainable fountain pen is made from red recycled polycarbonate. Each pen comes with a stainless steel nib and Sailor's slide-type sealing feature in the snap cap to prevent ink from drying out.

Packaged with a Sailor proprietary converter and two ink cartridges, this pen is ready to bring joy to writing for a long time to come.

Red is a special edition TUZU color for 2024 and will be produced in limited quantities.

Attractive design but poor nib

All my fountain pens have either stub or broad nibs, as I do not care for scratchy writing, and I like wet nibs. I ordered the broad nib on this Sailor, but it feels more like a medium, and does not encourage my writing the way my other pens do--it kind of fights me, and I have to go back and fix words. I don't think Goulet should continue to offer it.

Love the pen. My second one in fact. However, the nib out of the box is not very good. My first pen was butter smooth if you can say that about a EF. This one will need a little work. All that said this will be a great pen.

Got nice compliments when using at work.

It's vibrant red got quite the few compliments when I'm using it. Even inspired a customer who use to be into fountain pens to get back into it.

Sailor TUZU: a crazy name for a decent pen!

I recently bought two TUZU pens, the red and the grey and like them both. Sailor seems to always do a good job with their nibs and are smooth writers. I'm not sure that I will adjust the settings as the default setting seems to be comfortable in my hand. I can foresee new pen users might find this useful to find a proper position to hold a pen.

Beautiful writer. Easy on the had. Changeable grip is awesome.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I fill this fountain pen from an ink cartridge? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

A cartridge is small, disposable, sealed plastic reservoir that holds fountain pen ink. These come pre-filled with ink, and typically you just push to insert them into place and you'll be ready to write!

This pen uses proprietary Sailor ink cartridges, which are available in a wide range of colors.

You can learn more about how to actually install an ink cartridge on our blog, or in this video tutorial:

How do I use a converter? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

A converter goes in the place of where the ink cartridge would normally go. From there, you can fill your fountain pen from bottled ink.

A converter is a detachable and refillable ink reservoir that allows you to use bottled ink in a cartridge-accepting pen. Typically you will install the converter into the grip section, dip the nib/feed into the ink, and twist or pull the converter knob to draw ink into the converter.

We have a great video showing how to use a converter here:

How do I clean this fountain pen? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It mostly comes down to flushing out the pen with water, and sometimes a little bit of pen flush if the ink is really stuck. 

We put together a blog post with step-by-step instructions, or you can watch the video here:

We recommend a good cleaning every 2 weeks, and any time you change ink colors. Water will usually do the trick, but we recommend you use our Goulet Pen Flush if the ink has been left in the pen for a while and could have dried up, or when you’re switching ink colors.

For even more information about fountain pen cleaning, check out our Fountain Pen 101 video blog post.
