Kaweco Al Sport Fountain Pen In A Deep Red Finish

[NickiStew]

 

I was about to review this pen for united inkdom, when I noticed that it had gone missing. It turns out that my wife, Cherry, who's not into fountain pens at all, saw it and allegedly had an instant attraction to it and stole it.

So what does she like about it?

 

"The design and colour are what initially caught my attention. So I popped the red ink cartridge in and had a play. It feels really nice and classy. That Kaweco Steel Sport you have is cold on the skin. This is warm and just the right weight in my hand, really comfortable. The ink colour is divine too and the way it flows through the nib is amazing. It's just so smooth. I've never had a writing experience quite like this before. I also like the red leather pen pouch with the mechanical pencil. They look great together, can I keep them? Please?"

 

So there you have it. She's reviewed it. The images are all taken by Cherry and the handwriting is hers too and it looks as though the deep red Kaweco AL Sport Fountain Pen and the Kaweco AL Sport Mechanical Pencil in the red leather pouch will be staying in her handbag. I can fully appreciate how appealing this set is. And that colour is something else!

Yes! The red Al Sport is a beauty. I could not resist it and picked one up for a good price while on a recent vacation to Taiwan. (The average going rate for Al Sports in Taiwan is around NT$2080 (about 68 US Dollars) at the moment.)

 

Paired with a nice burgundy or rust-coloured ink like Diamine Syrah or Ancient Copper, it is a real treat for the eyes.

I've got to somehow get this sweet bundle out of her handbag and sent on to the next reviewer. But I can't see it happening....

Yup, you're going to have to buy her one, it's the decent thing to do. Get yourself one, while you're at it.

No-one to blame but yourself - and Kaweco, of course.

 

Never been tempted by these pens before, but the red works very well. Could be a useful litte pen to keep in a pocket. May have to look into getting one?( I mustn't be put off by the knowledge that I already have more FPs than I could ever use.) But, still ...

 

Thanks for the review.
