Sailor Shu-Katsu Red CT Multi Functional Pen 16-0129-230
roduct Overview & Concept
The Sailor Shu?Katsu series is a distinctive multi?pen line aimed at users who require versatility in black ink line widths along with a red accent option — ideal for writing forms, applications, or documents where different line weights and minimal color marking are useful. The Red CT variant (model 16?0129?230) features a red?toned body with CT (chrome trim) accents, giving a professional yet subtly eye-catching aesthetic.
While Sailor does not appear to list a detailed specification page for the Red CT model (at least in sources I found), much of its design and mechanism mirror the Blue CT and Black CT variants, which are documented in retailer descriptions and independent reviews.
Functional Features & Mechanisms
The Shu?Katsu line shines in its multi?ballpoint design:
-
Three black ballpoint widths are included: 0.5 mm, 0.7 mm, and 1.0 mm — allowing for fine, default, and bold black writing styles.
-
A 0.7 mm red ballpoint is also included, for highlighting, edits, or emphasis.
-
Internally, the pen accommodates five refill chambers: the three black widths, one red, plus a spare 0.7 mm black refill. This redundancy ensures you won’t be stuck if a tip runs dry.
-
The switching mechanism is “knock / tap” style: you knock the body (or push) with the desired width’s mark facing upward to engage that tip.
-
The clip is described in reviews as an “axis clip” — a strong spring-loaded metal clip that opens when the top is pressed.
Dimensions, Feel & Performance
From the Blue / Black variants (which share form factor) and user reviews:
-
Length: approx. 5.5 inches (~140 mm)
-
Weight: ~ 16 g — relatively light for a multi?ballpoint pen.
-
Many users describe it as a “fat pen” — appreciably thicker than average ballpoints, which can be a trade-off (more presence but maybe less comfortable for prolonged fine writing)
-
In writing performance, the black inks (especially 0.5 mm) yield crisp lines, while wider tips (0.7 mm and 1.0 mm) may sometimes show a bit of ink spread (“blobby”) depending on paper and speed.
Visual & Design Details
-
The body finish in this Red CT variant is expected to follow the same style as Blue / Black variants — a metal (likely aluminum) exterior, with formal styling suited to business / application settings. (Though I did not find a direct spec sheet for the Red CT version, the Blue CT listing from Scooboo matches the series style).
-
Chrome trim elements (clip, rings, accents) elevate the look, bringing luster to the dark / colored body.
-
The pen is packaged in a Sailor gift box as part of its standard offering.
Product Information
Product / Listing
-
The Sailor Shu?Katsu multi?pen line is offered in variants including Black CT, Blue CT, Red CT, etc. The Blue CT version (16?0129?240) is listed on Scooboo India.
-
The Black CT version (16?0129?220) is documented with detailed description at Scooboo.
-
The Shu?Katsu pen is reviewed in detail by Blake’s Broadcast (on the model generically) — their review of the Shu?Katsu line (not necessarily Red CT specifically) gives usable insight.
-
There is a generic product listing in the product query: Sailor Shu?Katsu Multi Functional Pen (but that listing may not exclusively denote the Red CT variant).
Features, Mechanism & Design (Shu?Katsu Line)
From the Blake’s Broadcast review and the listing for the Black variant:
-
The Shu?Katsu pen offers four ballpoint options in one body:
• Black 0.5 mm
• Black 0.7 mm
• Black 1.0 mm
• Red 0.7 mm -
Internally, the pen holds five refill chambers: the three black widths, one red, plus an extra 0.7 mm black refill as backup.
-
Switching among the tips is done by a knock / tap mechanism, with the desired width’s printing facing up.
-
The clip is described as an “axis clip”—a spring?loaded metal clip that opens with pressure on its top.
-
Dimensions and feel (from the review):
• Length: ~5.5 in (≈ 140 mm)
• Weight: ~16 g
• Described as a “fat pen” in its profile (thicker barrel) -
Ink performance: The 0.5 mm black tip yields crisp lines; the wider 0.7 mm and 1.0 mm black modes may appear a little “blobby” on some paper surfaces.
Red CT Variant (Inferred from Line Data)
Because the Red CT variant (16?0129?230) shares the same design philosophy as the other Shu?Katsu variants, we can infer:
-
It will have the same four-tip configuration (three black widths + 0.7 mm red).
-
It likely uses the same internal barrel / refill layout (with five chambers, including backup 0.7 mm black).
-
It would use the same knock / tap switching mechanism.
-
Its body finish / trim: “Red CT” implies a red-hued body (or red accent) with chrome (CT) trim (clip, rings) to match the CT suffix convention used in the Black CT and Blue CT versions.
-
Packaging, build, weight, and physical dimensions should be closely similar (or identical) to the other variants in the Shu?Katsu line.
