Kaweco Brass Sport Fountain Pen
$106
First debuting in 1911, Kaweco's brass fountain pen means business. This is a heavy duty pen that will outlive us all and when paired with the otherwise delicate fountain nib, is a beautiful and functional contradiction.
It is tiny at 4.2 inches when closed but comfortable at 5.2 inches open. Its raw finish develops a patina (sucker for any patina) unique to your own hand over time, giving it an antique, lived in feel — though as that develops, you'll come to miss the metallic scent the brass left on your fingers.

It is a tough call. I mean if you don't HATE the idea of buying both and returning the loser, or going with your hunch and swapping its worth the extra errand. My heart says medium unless you tend to prefer the finer things (I couldn't help myself).
Wise - keep us posted! Honestly even if it didn't write I'd love mine just the same. Its weight has power.

“Greer is best stationary store in Chicago. And the Kaweco brass sport pen is the only pen I own, it’s so beautiful. You can also get Kaweco pens online or at your local stationary store. I know it’s not a ballpoint pen; but as a picky bitch I swear by this fountain pen. You can change the ink colors every time you refill so running out is fun, not burdensome.”

“if you’re willing to be That Guy… I’ve had a gorgeous fine nib Kaweco Sport fountain pen since 2019 and love it. The brass gathers a patina that is to die for & you can get ink cartridges in many fun colors.”
