Description
The Sailor 1911 Standard Ninja Shachihoko is part of an exclusive, overseas-only collection that takes its inspiration from the unique weapons used by ninja warriors throughout Japanese history. Each pen features a beautifully rendered Yuubi Maki-e print on the barrel.
The Shachihoko has been part of Japanese folklore since the 8th century. As an ocean dweller able to control winds and rain, the Shachihoko is also associated with protection from fire – male and female Shachihoko sculptures are a frequent rooftop adornment in traditional Japanese building styles.
