I like the Kaweco Sport...

I like the Kaweco Sport Fountain Pen a lot. This is my third one, and definitely
not my last. I personally find them comfortable and easy to write with, and this
latest one is no exception. I chose a broad nib to best show off some of my
"flashier" inks (the ones with glitter, or underlying sheen of color). However,
it works well plain inks as well. It does write "wet", but this is a broad tip,
so I expect that and it has not been a problem. I have not experienced anything
like leakage, for example, and I have thrown this in my purse. The reason this
pen did not get a 5 star rating is the color of the pen itself. When I saw that
Kaweco had an iridescent pearl pen, I ordered it as soon as my limited budget
allowed. However, it isn't really that iridescent--you don't get dramatic shifts
of color as you move the pen about in the light. It isn't even particularly
shiny and I like shiny. However, because it was still a Kaweco, I decided to
keep it anyway and I do use it from time to time. I can recommend the Kaweco
Collection Sport Fountain pen--though not necessarily the color. Those looking
for a truly iridescent pen should keep looking--especially if they can afford a
higher priced pen.
