AL Sport fountain pen, matte black

Kaweco's AL Sport combines the modern, practical design of the Sport Classic with the weight and texture of anodized aluminum. The hexagonal cap keeps your pen from rolling off the table when in use and screws on to the body to prevent leaks in your pocket. With the cap posted on the back for writing, the AL Sport is balanced and long enough (5.2") to hold comfortably. With the cap on, it only measures 4.1", so it'll fit in almost any pouch, pocket, or bag. The Kaweco steel nib, available in five sizes, is springy and smooth, and the ink feed is very consistent.

This AL Sport is matte black. It's a great color to use at the office because it's elegant and unassuming. The pen comes packaged in an embossed metal gift box, with an instruction pamphlet and a Kaweco sticker. One blue ink cartridge is included inside the body of the pen.

Don't forget ink! We recommend Kaweco international short cartridges or the Kaweco Sport converter for use with this pen. Kaweco Sport slide-on clips are sold separately.

WHY BUY IT HERE?

When you choose St. Louis Art Supply for any fountain pen that costs $25 or more, one of our expert technicians hand-checks and adjusts the nib, using high-powered magnification to ensure that the tines are perfectly aligned and there are no manufacturing defects. If necessary, we also use a superfine abrasive to remove any stray metal that can impact the smoothness of your nib. Finally, we clean the pen with our house pen cleaner and make sure that no fibers are stuck in the nib.

This intensive quality-control process offers you peace of mind that other retailers can't match. If you've ever bought a fountain pen from Amazon, you may have noticed that some reviews say it is smooth and others say it is scratchy. The reason is that they do not look at the pen before shipping it out. As a specialized shop with highly trained staff, we go the extra mile to provide a polished experience for every customer.

Look for our green "Tested OK" stamp on your packing slip. It's our way of letting you know that a real person checked your new pen and made sure it's perfect.
