pens and pencils

First designed in the 1930s, the German-made Kaweco Classic Sport is a compact, reliable pen with an excellent vintage-meets-contemporary look. We recommend this pen as seriously good value for money: 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. The Classic Sport 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 Sport fountain pens are refilled with standard international ink cartridges, such as those made by J. Herbin or Kaweco.
