Kaweco Al Sport Fountain Pen Deep Red (Fine)

Kaweco AL Sport Fountain Pen in Deep Red (Fine nib)

First designed in the 1930s, the German-made Kaweco Sport is a compact, reliable pen with an excellent vintage-meets-contemporary look. We highly recommend this pen: the quality is excellent, it's durable and it's a little bit of pen-design history. The pen is very compact when capped - at 10.5cm it slips easily into a pocket or purse. When the cap is removed and 'posted' on the end of the barrel it extends to 13.3cm: a comfortable length for writing.

This pen takes standard international cartridge refills such as Kaweco or J. Herbin or you can use the Kaweco squeeze style converter.

The AL Sport is one of the best of the Sport range. The barrel is polished by hand and it feels smooth and light. It has a screw cap and a stainless steel, iridium-tipped nib made by the Bock family of Heidelberg, Germany. These nibs are famous for their consistency. An iridium tip protects the nib from abrasion by contact with paper.

Kaweco pens are Made in Germany to this day, just as they were when the company was established in 1883. The Kaweco motto is 'License To Write' and this shows a big part of their mission - to bring fine writing to the masses!
