It's a limited-edition release built for anyone who wants a little seasonal joy in their everyday carry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Construction\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Mini Pocket's proportions are built for portability first: capped, the pen measures approximately 117.3 mm; the body alone is approximately 107.7 mm, with the cap adding approximately 49.5 mm. Body diameter is approximately 14.5 mm, cap diameter approximately 14.7 mm, and grip diameter approximately 11.7 mm — small enough to disappear into a pocket or pencil case, while still comfortable to write with. Weight is approximately 24 g. The screw-on cap is not designed to post securely for extended writing, and a chrome-plated clip completes the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe pen ships in an Opus 88 gift box with a glass eyedropper pipette included for filling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEyedropper Filling System \u0026amp; Shut-Off Valve\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDespite its compact size, the Summer Strike holds a generous 1.5 ml of ink through a Japanese-style eyedropper system with an integrated shut-off valve. To fill, unscrew the grip section, use the included glass eyedropper to draw ink, and deposit it into the barrel — leaving a little room for air pressure helps prevent leaks. Before writing, unscrew the blind cap at the end of the barrel to release the internal shut-off mechanism and allow ink to flow to the nib; retighten it before travel to seal the ink chamber, reassuring for a pen that's likely to live in a beach bag or a pocket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eNib Options\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Summer Strike is fitted with a #5 JoWo stainless steel nib, available in:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtra Fine (EF)\u003c\/strong\u003e — a precise, controlled line for small handwriting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFine (F)\u003c\/strong\u003e — the most versatile everyday width\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedium (M)\u003c\/strong\u003e — broader and wetter, good for shading inks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBroad (B)\u003c\/strong\u003e — a bold, generous line\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1.4 mm Stub\u003c\/strong\u003e — an italic-style grind adding crisp line variation to every stroke\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eManufacturer Warranty\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eOpus 88 fountain pens are backed by the manufacturer's warranty against defects.
