Since NAKAYA pens are all hand-made, the dimensions may vary somewhat.
Nakaya now offers both gel point (roller ball) and ball point in all of its long and portable pens. The price is $40 less than the same model with a nib. For example, a Portable Writer Aka-tamenuri would cost $420 as a ball point or roller ball pen.
 

Since Nakaya pens are hand crafted, the turnaround on Nakaya orders is one to three months. We do not carry a complete stock of Nakaya pens. See the "a" above for what we do have now. a*= our first limited edition Nakaya pen is now available ( The portable model is sold out).
*= will no longer be available in the Decapod model 9/22/09.

We order Nakaya pens on a no-change basis. Please be sure that you are ordering what you want, because we cannot change your order after we place it.
