Started skipping, felt dry.

https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php/topic/267969-not-liking-the-flow-of-my-kaweco-sport/?p=3014735 and it is now wetter and much better.

Couple of pages and I'm becoming used to the weight of the pen, posted.

Nice review

I bought one of these last week and love it, it weighs twice as much as my Sport AL which I like and fitted with a 1.1mm stub nib it glides on most papers

The plastic sleeve inside the cap is strange though, I'm not sure what Kaweco used it for as the Lilliput brass doesn't have it.

Nice looking pen. I still haven't decided about buying one, yet.

Does anyone know if the Brass uses the same nib units as the Dia2? Thanks.

Yes, I only noticed it after a few weeks.

Very good match (colour) to the brass!

I swapped the fine for an extra fine, and the (refilled) cartridges are lasting ages, 8 solid pages of A4 so far.

I'm still smiling at the nib, smooth as silk, real joy to use.

Another benefit, being so solid, it makes a good pen to carry in my trouser pocket - minute taking at meetings etc.

It is slowly tarnishing to the dull brass colour, more to go I guess.

I'm thoroughly pleased with it.

I'm still thinking about one of these. An aluminum Kaweco is is my pants pocket most days. A little more heft would bother me. I'm am enjoying all these reviews.

Well, I'm a convert - even without a converter! I do think it's a lovely pen to use, and as it happens it's the very first to feature at a new meta-review site you may enjoy too...
