Kaweco AL Sport Fountain Pen – Deep Red

The AL Sport is the aluminium version of Kaweco's octagonal pocket pen, a design whose roots go back to 1911. Deep Red is a rich, saturated colour that turns a practical pocket pen into something a little more special.

Closed it measures just 10.7 cm and disappears into a shirt pocket; post the cap on the back and it becomes a full-size 12.7 cm writing pen. At around 20 g it is light enough to carry every day but feels noticeably more solid than the plastic Sport models.
