Kaweco BRASS Sport ballpen

The impressive heavyweight of the Sport series, the BRASS Sport, is turned from first-class brass. Weighing 44 grams the fountain pen is the heaviest Kaweco pen. Cap and barrel are manufactured in two complex processes to create this stunning piece of German engineering. A big program of perfect ink cartridges for the Kaweco fountain pen you can get here at mostwanted. In the beginning of the industrial age pens were made of hard rubber. Ebonite, as it was also called, was only polished. Even brass was already used for pen parts. But it was more for the trimmings such as clip and decorative rings. Only the cartridge technology made it possible to reflect on other materials since the ink does not directly and permanently come into contact with the metals. So in daily use the brass can develop its natural patina. Around 1550 brass was “cast” in a targeted way for the first time and thus offered a variety of applications.

The Kaweco SPECIAL ballpoint pen brass is made of ECO brass, that means it is lead-free and environmentally friendly produced. It is equipped with a blue 1.0 mm Kaweco ballpen refill in G2 size. The simple design combined with the high-gloss polished brass gives an exciting sight. This will be even more exciting with the time, as the raw brass will oxidize when used and a beautiful patina will appear. The ballpoint pen of the Kaweco SPECIAL brass series has the Kaweco typical 8 edges as well as a high-quality laser engraving and the silver-colored logo medal on the push button. As usual from Kaweco the ballpoint pen is equipped with an excellent ballpen mechanic, which can not be broken without raw violence .

The Kaweco SPECIAL series, as it is now, was already built about 100 years ago similar as it is today.

The Kaweco SPECIAL was made from hard rubber and some years later from celluloid. Nowadays the SPECIAL pencils are available in 4 different line thicknesses, which allows a choice between 0.5mm 0.7mm 0.9mm and 2.0 mm leads. Excellent suitable for all types of drawings. Whether technically drawing, creative sketching or just writing, the Kaweco SPECIAL printing pencil has convinced us at mostwanted-pens.

Kaweco wants the SPECIAL brass to oxidize and it is therefore not a defect.
