The Kaweco Sport is the pocket legend: just 10.5 cm closed, then full-size and perfectly balanced when you post the cap. Its iconic octagonal design, smooth stainless-steel nib, and reliable cartridge system (standard international short; Mini Converter optional) make it an easy everyday carry fountain pen that writes far above its size. Choose from classic resin or upgraded metal bodies, add an optional clip, and enjoy that crisp, dependable Kaweco feel—at your desk, in your pocket, anywhere.
It's iconic because the design has survived largely unchanged since its release in 1911. At the time, the pen was marketed especially to the elegant set in evening wear and to sportsmen. That’s why it was given the name “Sport.”
Why we like it at Bottle and Plume
The king of the pocket pens! A timeless design and a truly functional pen, at a reasonable price that puts it firmly in the "starter fountain pens" category. The nibs are stiff and can get a bit dry on the fine/extra-fine end of the spectrum. The grip section can be quite thin, making this tougher to use for people with large hands or any kind of hand pain that benefits from thicker sections and pens.
