KawecoCLASSIC SPORT Fountain Pen Bordeaux with 23 Carat Gold-Plated Steel Nib and Iridium Tip for Ink Cartridges I Sport Fountain Pen 13 cm I Nib: EF (Extra Fine)

I am an avid fountain pen collector and have amassed a rather large amount of them ranging from cheapies to quite expensive ones. I have the same issue with all of them in that I can't use them enough to stop the ink from drying out, or evaporating completely!BUT... This is my second Kaweco sport classic fountain pen and it is just a faultless as the first.They write smooth and fabulously well, even after sitting in my bag for nearly a month there was no issue with flow, no drying out, they are perfect writers every time.I've just bought a third as I like to have different colour inks in each and I am more than extremely happy with them!

Very useful and practical pocket fountain pen. The construction is robust, though it is made from tough plastic and not metal. A seperate clip is available to buy. Great design by German company Kaweco. The pen, when posted, becomes a proper sized pen and easy to use. The nib is very smooth and a joy to write with. Uses international ink cartridges, so easy to buy and a great colour range to choose from. This pen is quite cheap, but it writes very well and is better than many pens costing a lot more. I also have it's sibling the Kaweco Liliput, which is aluminium, cute and tiny and perfect for my filofax pen loop. (This pen is just a bit too wide to fit the loop, hence why I got the Liliput afterwards.) Kaweco is a brand that is less well known, but they make quality products.

Love this pen, a joy to use

Love these pens! Have several in different colours. Great to write with and always get positive comments when using it.

This is my first adult fountain pen. I didn't know what to expect as I only used a fountain pen at school previously, and hadn't touched one in around 15 years...I thought I would go for something modestly priced, and popular so I bought a Kaweco sport, the main point I have is; it's great when it works, but it doesn't work 100% of the time.I liked them so much when I initially purchased them I bought 2. I was happy when they arrived, and proceeded to load them with Diamine ink cartridges and crack on testing them out.Now, I wasn't expecting miracles but it wasn't a happy relationship from the get go with wither pen. This is me reviewing the pens 1 week later and it's still a stop start pen. Both broad (B) nibs - Sometimes it works first time, sometimes it doesn't (it always works if I shake the pen to push the ink), but the other problem is it dires up and stops working pretty quickly after you pause writing. Meaning flicking the pen to get the ink flowing again over the paper isnt an ideal situation. I want to love this pen more but I just have this issue with two dud nibs - and I know I'm not alone as a lot of other purchasers say the same thing (something to do with a 'babies bottoms', where the nib is too smooth) it's basically pot luck.Good solidly made pen which actually looks nice, also a smooth consistent ink flow whilst in the flow of writing. So for this I give it a (possibly generous) 4/5, good but not great

The particular Model I ordered was the dark green model, with extra fine nib. This pen is extraordinarily small, when pinched in the fingers its only a little thicker than a pencil. When closed it is very small, and perfect for putting in a pocket (I keep mine in my inside jacket pocket, where it sits flat below my wallet). The fact it has a screw on cap means there's no risk of the cap being pulled off as would be the case with a friction fit cap. Other reviews of the finer nibs have said they have been scratchy but I don't find mine to be scratchy, it flows well and doesn't require much pressure at all to write. All in all a great choice if what you are looking for is a fountain pen that you can travel about with.

This is a great small pen. I bought a Fine nibbed version. It writes really well, is not too wet nor too dry and feels very comfortable in the hand. I actually prefer it to the Lilliput which is slightly too thin to use comfortably. I would highly recommend this as a second or third line pen, or one for your edc bag. It takes the standard sized cartridge and the Kaweco black cartridges I bought with it, are a really nice shade of black. It's very light and can really only be used when the cap is posted, given it's small size. But when posted it works perfectly.

I bought this a number of years ago now and it arrived on time and was what I expected.If you're looking for a pen which is small and can fit into any pocket, so light-weight that you forget its in your pocket, and that's what matters most to you then this is a good pen for you. An everyday pen for on the go that you wouldn't mind loosing.I doubt that these are your primary concerns when buying a pen though... and at over £20 in a cost of living crisis you probably would be a bit upset at loosing this pen. It's price point is a little high for the quality of the pen.The shell is plastic making it very light weight, mine is also little scratchy to use, and both of these factors mean I don't really use this pen anymore. I prefer bold nibs which have a bit of weight to them (entirely my fault in this case because I knew this wasn't what I was buying).For the price point, I would just buy a Lamy which is a brand just as trusted as Kaweco has a greater choice of nibs, feels sturdier, slightly bigger, plastic body but with a frame which feels more solid.
