I just found my new favorite...., August 22, 2011
I just found my new favorite. Prior to ordering this pen I was using the Kaweco
Fine Nib, which is a perfectly great pen in it's own right, but when I saw that
Jetpens was offering the extra fine nib, I thought I'd give it a try. The extra
fine nib has a slightly finer line and there is less feathering when writing and
less bleeding through the paper. I still think the Kaweco black ink performs
just fine. I would definitely recommend this pen to a friend, may even give them
as Christmas gifts this year.

I Couldn't Be Happier..., August 3, 2012
I Couldn't Be Happier with This Kaweco Fountain Pen
I bought this pen a couple of weeks ago from JetPens, and it is now the only pen
I use for everyday carry. Other pens that have sat in desk drawers and pencil
holders gathering dust have been jettisoned in favor of this gem. The Extra
Fine nib is perfect for college ruled paper of all qualities- the line width is
sharp and uncrowded. The aluminum body is built like a Tiger Tank, but it is
quite graceful in basic black. I find the Kaweco black ink cartridges very good
in their blackness, although I have not yet tried the Herbin Black Pearl.
A pen of this quality drives home the point that a writer or artist of any
income level cannot afford a cheap pen...

This pen is amazing!..., January 27, 2011
This review is from Kaweco AL Sport Fountain Pen - Fine Nib - Black Body
This pen is amazing! Out of the box, it looks tiny, but after posting it, it
feels great on your hand. And the nib is high quality! I think that it even
writes better than some of the more expensive, gold-nib fountain pens that I
own. And the cool touch and solidness of the aluminum body really enhances the
writing experience. Just hearing the pen clink as I screw and unscrew the top
brings me some sensory pleasure.
This pen is definitely my favorite. I like it so much that I ended up purchasing
all three colors.
KaWeCo products are hard to find in the states. So, thanks JetPens for bringing
them to us!

Great pen, perfect balance..., June 20, 2011
This review is from Kaweco AL Sport Fountain Pen - Fine Nib - Black Body
Great pen, perfect balance of weight, length and width. Nib is surprisingly
smooth and a real pleasure to write with. Only complaint is that unlike my
plastic kaweco fountain pen, the cap does NOT post snugly on to the front
section of the pen. This causes the cap to ride off the front section as I
write with it, literally spinning around. Very annoying. I have tried jamming
it on as hard as I can but it still winds up spinning around. it almost seems
as though there is a piece missing inside the cap that would "grab" the front
section. Anyone else have this problem?

Wow.... This pen is so..., December 8, 2010
This review is from Kaweco AL Sport Fountain Pen - Fine Nib - Black Body
Wow.... This pen is so nice, I wish I could write this review with it! It's a
good nib width for my small handwriting. When posted, it's a full size pen, and
I have thin hands, so I often use it unposted.
This is the first pen above 15$ that I've ever owned, but I really think it was
worth it, as I doubt I'll need to buy another for years.
Recommended!
