The Raw Polished Kaweco AL Sport fountain pen features the classic Kaweco's sporty look. It closely follows the original octagonal design. The compact size makes it easy to carry around. The cap extends the pen to an ideal length for a comfortable writing experience. The fountain pen's barrel is made from high-grade aluminum with a well-balanced weight. The nib is a high-quality steel nib with a golden Kaweco logo as well as the top of its cap. The pen is compact when capped (10.1 cm) but comfortable to use when posted (12.7 cm). Each pen comes in Kaweco's tin box and a blue ink cartridge in the body of the pen. As it is a compact size, it is only compatible with Kaweco's mini converter. Please note the metal body of this pen can be corroded by prolonged contact with ink. Please make sure to clean off any ink residue from its body.
