A perfectly formed pocket-sized pen, the Kaweco Sport is an iconic design, one that is minimal and precise tracing its origins all the way back to 1911. Pitched originally as "small in the pocket, large in the hand" it still lives up to this ideal measuring a mere 10.5cm when closed, becoming a very comfortable 13.3cm in use with the oversized cap "posted".
Two colour "families" are offered in Kaweco's standard range: Classic & Skyline. Classic colours are seen by Kaweco as being, well... "classic" for a fountain pen; Skyline colours as being more modern. We think - particularly as you can now get black in both ranges that the key determinant is trim colours: Classic pens enjoy gold tone end dots, lettering and plating to the nib; Skyline versions come with these accents in a silver tone.
The stainless steel smooth, free-flowing, medium width nib, is by Bock of Heidelberg. The body and barrel of the pen have silver tone accents to match the nib. All the pens we offer as standard come with Medium nibs, however we are very happy to order any available nib width for you in store: from Extra Fine to Double Broad.
The pen uses standard international ink cartridges, but there is also a mini-converter available. Because of its all plastic construction it is ideal for the bolder pen fan to create their own home "eyedropper" conversion where the whole body becomes one massive ink reservoir: the Sport is in fact held, by many aficionados, to be one of the best pens out there to do this with.
Presented as standard in a simple Kaweco branded paper carton.
Kaweco retro-tastic old-skool style gift tins are available here, and if you'd like to protect your pen while you're out-and-about these Kaweco branded Eco-Leather pouches might be of interest. We also offer a slide-on pen-clip by Kaweco made just for the Sport range, and a mini-converter so that you can use that bottled ink you've been lusting after in your Sport pen, even though you can't find in in cartridges anywhere!
