Sailor Lecoule Safari Beige RT Fountain Pen MF
Slide open the screw?on cap and let your pen whisper the soft tones of nature: the Sailor Lecoule Safari Beige RT is a fountain pen designed to blend elegance, simplicity, and everyday utility. Its body, in a muted safari?beige finish, evokes sandy earth, dry leaves, or a sun?washed trail — calm, understated, and warm. Against this mellow backdrop, darker silver/dark steel trims offer contrast with quiet dignity.
Beneath the surface elegance lies Sailor’s well?honed Japanese craftsmanship: a stainless steel nib in Medium?Fine (MF) size delivers a writing line that is neither too bold nor too delicate — ideal for general note taking, journaling, or letters. Its feedback is typical of Sailor steel nibs: a textural, “present in hand” feel rather than perfectly glassy smooth, appealing to those who like to feel a connection to the paper.
The body is made of PMMA resin (a high quality, durable plastic), keeping weight low (≈?12.4?g), and the design is compact (≈?123?mm when capped). It’s light enough to carry and use comfortably through long writing sessions, yet feels solid in clutch. The pen accepts both Sailor cartridges and the optional converter, so you’re not limited in your ink palette.
Its cap screws on firmly, latching securely, and you can post it (place the cap on the back of the barrel) to increase writing length — though when posted the balance shifts. That modest length and the grip size (≈?12?mm) make it usable for many hand sizes.
For those seeking style, this “Safari Beige” version has added personality: the beige color is softer and more natural than many standard muted tones; the dark trims, nib, and clip provide contrast, rather than shine, which reinforces the natural, earthy focus of the design. Whether on a desk, in a bag, or perched for notes in a meeting, it avoids loudness, but doesn’t fade into mediocrity either.
It’s an excellent pen for users who want a reliable, good?looking writer without premium gold nibs. It’s stylish, practical, and crafted with care — Sailor’s entry?to?mid?range character distilled in a beige shell. A lovely companion for everyday writing, especially if you prefer muted tones, steady performance, and Japanese pen heritage.

Features & Performance Notes
-
The MF (Medium?Fine) nib tends to provide moderate line width — sharper/finer than a standard medium, but more robust than a fine — suitable for daily writing, note?taking, and moderately detailed work.
-
Good for beginners as well as seasoned users who want a reliable pen with pleasant aesthetics and basic high craftsmanship.
-
Dual filling system gives flexibility — use cartridges for convenience or converter (purchased separately in some cases) for bottled ink.
-
The Safari Beige finish is muted but distinctive: a warm beige / earthy tone with darker metal trims, offering a blend of subtle style and versatility.
Usage & Limitations
-
As with many stainless steel MF nibs, some users report feedback (i.e. a slight tactile feel or scratchiness) especially early on or with lighter inks, until ink flow is settled.
-
Because the cap is screw?on, ensuring tight closure during idle periods helps prevent drying.
-
Paper quality will affect impressions: more absorbent paper may reduce sharpness of strokes; coated / smoother papers will show more clarity.
