The history of Kaweco goes back to 1883. Over time there have been many different systems for filling a fountain pen. While ink cartridges are the most popular these days, the piston mechanism can be used to draw the ink directly from the glass into the integrated ink chamber of the fountain pen. This makes ink cartridges obsolete.
 
The Kaweco Sport piston fountain pen is the smallest of its kind due to the sophisticated and compact mechanics in the ratio of pen size to ink filling volume. This iconic pocket fountain pen is only 10.5 cm when closed and grows to a normal size of 13 cm when the cap is replaced. Its small size makes it ideal for traveling and ensures a long and pleasant writing experience
 
The ink level can be viewed at all times via the transparent ink window. If the ink is used up, the piston fountain pen can be refilled quickly and easily thanks to the particularly smooth filling mechanism. This filling system also allows the use of inks in an unmatched variety of colors, as there are many ink colors that are only bottled in jars.
 
The matt anodized surface of the robust aluminum housing is extremely durable and gives the pen a high-quality feel. The perfect balance between weight and diameter of the fountain pen also ensures that the hand does not tire even after long periods of writing. By combining it with golden decorative elements, the functionality is expanded with stylish elegance and thus combines traditional filling methods with the modern age.
