Brace yourselves, stationery fans and pen collectors—the dark side has never looked this classy! On March 22, 2025, Sailor Pen dropped something seriously stunning: the CYLINT Fountain Pen & Ballpoint Pen in Matte Black Stainless Steel. It’s bold, brainy, and beautifully black. 🕶️🖊️
💎 What’s the CYLINT Series All About?
The CYLINT name is a mashup of CYLINDER (yep, like the pen shape!) and INTELLIGENT—because this writing tool isn’t just pretty; it’s clever too. 🤓✍️
This pen series is designed for daily use, but make no mistake: it’s luxury-level. The new matte black edition brings high-tech design and serious style into one perfect writing instrument. Think: James Bond meets calligraphy club. 🎩💼

🌑 So... What Makes This Black So Special?
This isn’t just regular black paint slapped on some metal. Nope. Sailor used a futuristic surface treatment called:
🛠️ “Matte Stainless Black Color Development” (say that five times fast!)
Here’s the magic behind it:
-
It’s not paint, and it’s not plating
-
A super thin black oxide layer grows on the stainless steel
-
The black appears through light interference—like magic, but science-y! 🔬🌈
-
Because it's part of the actual metal, it won’t peel, chip, or fade
-
It’s tough against weather, wear, and even your overly packed pencil case
The result? A deep, uniform, scratch-resistant matte black that looks and feels like modern luxury. It’s cool. It’s smooth. It’s the color of confidence. 😎🖤
