Kaweco Sport Classic Fountainpen green EF (extra fine)

The medium is a little broader than expected, although it was anticipated when buying a German pen as opposed to Japanese. The performance is beautiful and the feel is perfectly ergonomic — not too heavy or wide of a barrel, fitting in my small hand perfectly. It feels good to write with posted. I even like it unposted too. It’s a joy to write with and a delight to look at with the white and gold being a perfect marriage of colors.I also purchased the extra fine nib for my everyday writing and use the medium for drawing, which is fun to do with this pen with its light weight and fluid lines. I also added a clip which makes it look even more distinctive.The Kaweco Sport Classic is excellent value and a great quality writing instrument. I love its fun, modern, minimalist design while still appearing classy, especially with the additional clip.One more point of note: the screw cap is great which gives me peace of mind when putting the pen in my purse knowing that

Okay so, this is my first own kaweco that I’ve owned in their entry level price point. I also have 2 AL sports and a copper liliput. Those three great surpass the classic sport in usability and construction.Now that’s not to say this is bad, actually I love this pen (I have the same one, white body, gold trim, m nib) and the medium nib is nice and lightly lubricated with the right ink (currently using diamine oxblood in it)But like others have said it feels cheap, it’s a little expensive for what it is BUT that being said it’s crazy durable, it’s meant to be kicked around, thrown in a bag/purse/car etc. But for some reason the threads SQUEAK, this is because it’s brand new and needs to be broken in but that was a slight turn off because the AL sports don’t do that.Yes I enjoy the AL sport more for its weight, construction, looks, etc but the classic sport should be in everyone’s collection if they are serious Kaweco collectors.

Although a bit expensive for being fully plastic, the finishes on this pen are great. Not the smoothest one out there, but it is reliable, always writhing when needed. One kind of annoying fact is the lack of converter for the price. Al around is a great product if you find it for the right price

I have bought various Lamy, Pilot, Platinum, Conklin, Waterman, Parker, TWSBI, Jinhao, Wing Sung and Hero brand pens and love them all. This is my first Kaweco. The pen is tiny and you must post the cap to comfortably write with it. If you want a clip, it’s a separate purchase. My pen did come with a cartridge but it was stuck inside the body and I only found it when I was inserting another international standard cartridge. For new purchasers, open up the pen and tap on the body so the cartridge can slide out. It writes very well and the line is probably between a fine and extra fine for the Asian fountain pens. The nib is pretty smooth for the EF point. It is a dry writer that I can use without any ghosting on regular notebook paper. There is also no skipping.For those fountain pen addicts like myself, the Lamy Safari is the closest alternative to this Kaweco Sport. Both are high quality plastic and quirky (Kaweco with its short pen length and Lamy with its icon

I bought this pen in January. I have a brass Kaweco Sport I really like, the price on this was reasonable, so why not? When I received it, the ink cartridge included in the barrel was open, so the pen was a mess inside. I should have returned it then, but I assumed it was a fluke and it was easy enough to clean. I didn’t use the pen much initially, and only at home. I didn’t get around to carrying it with me to work until yesterday. It leaked horribly from the feed. I tried my best to clean it, but I encountered another issue. A Kaweco nib/feed fits into a collar, which threads into the grip section of the pen. In this case, that collar piece is stuck inside the grip section. All attempts to unscrew the collar/feed just results in the feed spinning freely or pulling out of the collar. I can’t disassemble the pen in order to clean the feed assembly properly (or replace it). I think more aggressive measures would just damage the pen overall. I spent enough on this
