The impressive heavyweight of the Sport series, the BRASS Sport, is turned from first-class brass. The mechanical pencil is one of the heaviest Kaweco pens. The barrel is manufactured in a complex process to create this stunning piece of German engineering. For the Kaweco mechanical pencil there are the matching 0.7 mm leads here in the shop. 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 pencil brass is made from Eco Brass. This special brass type can be made environmentally friendly and lead-free. But not only this is SPECIAL about that writing and drawing device. The 0.5 mm mechanism is only built and used by a few manufacturers. The most popular pencils are 0.7 mm thick. Visually, the SPECIAL brass pencil is a highlight. Despite the minimalist and elegant form, the pencil seems to be luxurious thanks to the high-gloss polished brass. But the first impression can deceive. It looks a lot more exciting after a while, as the pen develops a patina. The raw brass oxidizes and becomes blackish. The symphatic character of the SPECIAL hides under the polished surface. Suitable for this Kaweco SPECIAL print pencil are the Kaweco pencil leads with a diameter of 0.5 mm. Mines from other manufacturers can also be used. However, the length of the mines should be taken into account. We recommend the manufacturer's mines to avoid complications. Since ca.1930 the SPECIAL series already exists in quite similar form.
