Like velvet in your hand

Our Piston Sport AL series gets more colourful: Just in time for the holidays, our metallic piston filler gets a new, luxurious look. The anodised red surface of the robust aluminium body is highly durable and gives the pen a high-quality haptic. The colour perfectly harmonizes with the added golden elements, which imbue the piston filler with a great elegance. The perfect balance between the weight and diameter of the fountain pen also ensures that one’s hand does not become tired even after long periods of writing.

The transparent ink window allows you to monitor the ink level at all times. If the ink runs out, the piston filler can be refilled quickly and easily thanks to the exceptionally smooth-running refill mechanism. This filling system also enables the use of inks in an unsurpassed variety of colours, as many ink colours are only available in bottles.

The Kaweco Sport Piston Filler is available as a ready-to-use Starter Set with a 32 ml ink bottle in the colour Royal Blue or as a writing instrument without additional ink.

Kaweco writes history

Kaweco’s history dates back to the year 1883. Since then, there have been many different filling systems for fountain pens. While ink cartridges are particularly popular nowadays, the piston mechanism allows the ink to be drawn directly from the bottle into the fountain pen’s integrated ink chamber. Our Sport Piston Filler thus makes ink cartridges obsolete.

Refined and pocket-sized

The Kaweco Sport Piston Filler is one of the smallest in relation to size and ink volume. This is possible due to its clever and compact mechanism. The iconic pocket-sized piston filler only measures 10.5 cm when closed and grows to an average size of 13 cm with the cap attached. Thanks to the small size, the pen is ideal for on-the-go and ensures a long and pleasant writing experience.

The fountain pen is equipped with a gold-plated stainless steel nib, available in five different nib sizes, ranging from extra fine (EF) to extra broad (BB). The 190 nib insert can easily be exchanged. To complete the look, the Kaweco Piston Sport AL Bordeaux is placed within a round tin in our classic Kaweco design. The perfect gift for a loved one for the Holidays.

Note: Italic nibs are in silver colour. Compatible with Kaweco 190 gold plated nibs.

AL Sport

As early as 1905 Kaweco had already manufactured the first writing instruments made out of metal. Products which were made out of silver or gold plated brass in the past, are made from aluminium today.

High-quality aluminium is processed by CNC-technique and other processes in order to obtain a satin finish and hardened surface. The "Stonewashed" version already has a used look. The "Raw" model develops a patina especially quick, because the aluminium is untreated while the limited edition rose gold version is anodised for hard wear and tear.

Kaweco Details

The quality of good things is an experience that goes well beyond a single sense. Kaweco passion goes just as deep for the smallest of details as it does for the huge difference between their writing instruments and cheap, mass-made products. Kaweco designs stem from another era when tradition and craftsmanship were still synonymous and some clocks seemed to go a little slower. We took the fascination Kaweco pens had back in the days and translated these values to today's refined and increasingly demanding times.
Creating products that keep the given promise of standing up to being much loved and seasoned companions every single day of the journey, time and time again.

Kaweco Manufacturing

Good things take time and we take the long list of steps and tasks necessary to build your next writing instrument more than just seriously. The manufacturing process and quality control still lay in Kaweco's very own, skilled hands, right there in Nuremberg, Germany. A city rich with tradition and appreciation for writing instruments, renowned well beyond its infamous walls. Local tradition and technology from afar meet in every single one of our products: Like the premium mechanics from PRECO/Iwasaki Japan for example.

Kaweco Functional Design

To ensure a lasting experience Kaweco operate within the smallest margins of tolerance - even though they offer customization options on every single pen. Whether you opt for a Kaweco classic octa-edge format or a circular design, pencil, roller pen or one of their many nib widths and strengths - they'll create the perfect instrument for your demands. Kaweco work is a work well done when best-in-class quality, tangible character, and timeless design have gone from our hands to yours.
