Kaweco Classic Sport Fountain Pen - Extra Fine Nib - Bordeaux Body

This fountain pen might not be running as smooth as your lamy for it doesn't spit out the ink inside: It's made for people who crave for extra fine nibs, which kaweco have done a great job ensuring. I really enjoy the design and functionality and will be ordering again from this brand, next time for something that can work with a converter, perhaps.

This is my second Kaweco Sport. The first, which I purchased for college in the 60's, a piston filler with a gold nib,
was made of "destructible plastic." The plastic on the new one is much better. The fine nib writes puts down a nice line is
is relatively smooth. If you buy the pen, watch the Jetpens video on installing the first cartridge; it contains a useful
tip. I'm very happy I found the Jetpens site.

I absolutely LOVE this pen. I've tried many fountain pens in the past including the Ohto Tasche and the Lamy Vista Extra Fine, but this has come out superior. Ink flow is consistently smooth in almost every angle, which I didn't see with my Lamy. Even with its small body, it sits comfortably for hours of writing. The nib writes a little bigger than the EF Lamy, and smaller than the Tasche, but the ink flows better, making all my inks looking rich and dark, even after writing for a while.

A truly wonderful fountain pen. The Kaweco Sport Classic - at only four inches long, capped - is a small and dainty pen that packs a punch. Although the size may be an issue for some people, I\'ve noticed that it\'s comfortable posted or unposted. The fine nib that runs true to size is smooth and buttery across paper, even cheap copy paper. Not only that, but the pen seems able to take some stress with a nice, even weight. Aesthetically, the pen is beautiful with a gold logo on the top and body of the cap, and a matching gold nib. It\'s truly beautiful, you can pick up many!

I bought this pen to carry when I'm riding my motorcycle. Keep it either in my jacket pocket or pants pocket.

It always writes the first time, no matter if it has stayed in the jacket for weeks. And, I've found that by replacing the cartridge by making it an "eyedropper," just putting a little silicone grease on the barrel and filling the barrel with ink...I carry the Bad Black Moccassin ink in it....waterproof, that I have the perfect carry pen.

It's a known fact that when you go to sign the gas receipt at a service station, or use the pen they give you at the Post Office, or Bank, that you are picking up one of the most germ laden devices for spreading disease!

Therefore, you should ALWAYS carry your OWN pen.....and when the check comes at a restaurant and they hand you a BIC, just pull out your Kaweco, and watch them gaze in awe as if you pulled a rabbit out of a hat!
