It moves in an L shape, much different than any other piece. Therefore, it can jump over pawns to capture more significant pieces, such as a rook or the queen, or even check the king.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\"Knight to E4\" is a homage to the knight chess piece and is the first in The Checkmate Series by Sailor. It has a beautiful pearlescent charcoal body, gold trim and a bicolor 21k gold nib. Moreover, this Pro Gear boasts an elegant custom finial with a chess knight design.

The founder Kyugoro Sakata was given a fountain pen by a friend returning from the UK after studying at the Royal Navy. He was inspired and determined to start making fountain pens in Japan. Sailor became the first fountain pen company in Japan, and earned many more firsts in Japan -- first ballpoint pen in 1948, first ink cartridge in 1954 and first brush pen in 1972, etc.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the 1970's, Sailor made a popular beginner fountain pen, \"Candy,\" that sold more than 15 million within a few years. However, the number of the fountain pen users were declining as ballpoint pens became more mainstream.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eIn 1981, Sailor decided to go in the opposite direction from their \"Candy\" pen and began focusing on producing a higher standard series, which is the 1911 series we see today. Their focus on making a higher standard provides a great foundation for their later series of pens. Today, Sailor makes one of the most diverse lines of nibs, some of which are designed for specific writing purposes such as writing musical notes to one that is best for character writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLengths:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapped: 13.5cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePen only: 10.6cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosted: 12cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiameters:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCap: 1.6cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBarrel: 1.32cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSection: 0.9-1cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeights: 24.5g\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sailor","offers":[{"title":"Extra Fine","offer_id":43088095805653,"sku":".GP\/11-8676-120\/discontinued","price":460.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Fine","offer_id":43088095838421,"sku":".GP\/11-8676-220\/discontinued","price":460.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Medium Fine","offer_id":43088095871189,"sku":".GP\/11-8676-320\/discontinued","price":460.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":43088095903957,"sku":".GP\/11-8676-420\/discontinued","price":460.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Broad","offer_id":43088095936725,"sku":".GP\/11-8676-620\/discontinued","price":460.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Music","offer_id":43088095969493,"sku":".GP\/11-8676-920\/last-call","price":460.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Zoom","offer_id":43088096002261,"sku":".GP\/11-8676-720\/discontinued","price":460.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1717\/0621\/products\/DSC_2425_0c933ba1-86ef-464c-8f11-288ebf2f60dd.jpg?v=1653687323","url":"https:\/\/yosekastationery.mom\/products\/sailor-pro-gear-fountain-pen-knight-to-e4","provider":"Yoseka Stationery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
