The Kaweco Skyline Sport is a pocket-sized fountain pen that when posted transforms into a full-sized pen that easily fits in your hand. This solid red-orange resin fountain pen comes with a stainless steel nib and an ink cartridge to get you started writing right away! It uses short standard international ink cartridges, or you can easily convert it to an eyedropper pen with a little bit of silicone grease. Converter and optional clip sold separately.

Note: This pen comes with an ink cartridge stored in the body. If it doesn’t fall right out, you can get it loose by giving the body a few solid taps on a hard surface.

This fox orange Kaweco is a stunning autumnal orange

This fox orange Kaweco is a stunning autumnal orange. It looks like a rich orange shade in person. I love the autumn orange color rather than bright orange. I got the medium nib and it writes beautifully. I am using the Kaweco Sunrise orange but I also have a more autumnal orange made by Diamine which I prefer.

Great Pocket Pen

Nice

For the price, it does the trick. I should have spent a bit more to get the same design, just not plastic.

This pen altered the trajectory of my life

I had a roommate who turned me on to well crafted writing instruments. I am so glad that she did! Even though my penmanship is piss-poor, writing with this pen is an absolute delight. It stays on me everywhere I go and is used frequently. I highly recommend getting the clip to go with it so it can hang off your shirt or pants pocket.Just the other day I was skating to a nearby coffee shop when a rogue pebble caught me off guard. Man did I bite it. I was scuffed up and the face of my watch was now scratched, but this tank of a pen was barely marked. This pen is a lot like your grandad's old truck. The more you beat the **** out of it, the more it loves you back and better it works. I am rough with this guy. I work in oil and gas and take it out to the field constantly. I don't properly clean it when changing inks and opt to simply let the green bleed into the light blue. This is the very definition of an everyday carry pen, and it stays on me. If you have experimented with fountain pens in the past and it wasn't your thing, believe me... I get you. I had a Lamy Safari that felt cumbersome and off balance to use. Once it even came uncapped in my pocket and bleed into my jeans (fortunately it was loaded with blue ink). The threading on the Kaweco Sport ensures that this will never happen. When you post the cap, if fits into the crook of your thumb and forefinger perfectly. If you haven't experienced an extra fine tip, I highly recommend you give it a go.Folks, writing this review has reminded me why I love this pen. I think I will order another for Father's day so my old man can have his own. I always make it a point to keep a good knife, lighter, and pen on me. The Kaweco Sport is an excellent product that I hope to continue using everyday for the rest of my life. If you made it this far and still aren't sold, know that ordering from Goulet is a delight. They package everything with care, and even give you a sucker and sticker. The whole process is great, and I doubt you will ever look back once holding this beautiful tool.

A fun pen for occasional use

This is a fine pen to throw in your bag for the day. It writes well and feels comfortable. Ink capacity is less than other pens in this class and the plunger-type converter is persnickety, so it may not be ideal for long writing/drawing sessions. It takes a tumble okay, but watch dribbles in the cap. Posting the cap is a must for my larger handsand it's a great way to discover if any ink leaked into the cap during the trip!

Cheap for the price

So Kaweco..well, here are my thoughts. I am new to fountain pens so take them with a grain of salt, this is my second pen and I bought it for its affordability and ICONIC look. Everybody talk how much they love this pens but I did not , I think is an ok pen and more on the not so amazing side so some pros and cons:Pros* True fine nib, I like better how my writing looks with a fine nib.* Dry pen so its good for cheap paper and not so fountain pen friendly paper.* Lightweight so you can use it posted if that is your jam.* Easy to carry arround, after all is a pocket pen.Cons* Material: I mind plastic pens so much, but for $25 the plastic looks cheap and also sounds cheap, when I unscrew it to check the ink level it sounds awful (squeaky sound not so great in a meeting or serious situation).* Ergonomics: it is a tiny pen, but the grip is so tiny that I have to close more my hand which makes it not so comfortable for long periods and if you are to tense or need precision is worse* Looks: the design is cool but this plastic version with out the cap on does not look so cute and when I see it I don't see $25 pen, I just see the european taxes.* The converter is a joke.(I did not bought it I am using cartridge refill system)* Does not come with a clip, for me is useful but I will not pay the extra. It is a ok writer (sometimes is to dry and does not give me an even line) but I bought it just for looks and nib and well very disappointed, I think the Metro would have been a better purchase. Yes the Al Sport would be better but keeping in mind that it would be the same but paying $60+ does not make it for me, so this is it. I dont recomend it but if you really wanted it and can affor it the Al Sport is where is at, some love the brass but that comes with other factors you need to take in count: weight, it's very heavy 40g againts 9g, smelly (like holding coins). My other pen is a Lamy Safari, not the best pen but I find myself using it more than Kaweco.

This is a fantastic, everyday kind of use, fountain pen. Personally, the compact size is great for me. Fun color options and it writes well. I am considering purchasing more.

Great, but so tiny!

Looks good. Compact. Looks small but when posted it fits comfortably in the hand. Smooth writer.When inserting the Kaweco converter into the pen for the first time it was surprisingly difficult. I thought it was going to break right before it finally seated properly. For the money this seems to be a great pen. And it comes in orange!

Nice little pen, way to small for my hands. I thought it would be a tad larger.

Amazingly good fountain pen

This is a feather weight fountain pen with an amazingly good stainless steel nib. It's also a great pen for an eye dropper conversion, although one of Kaweco' s translucent models would work even better. Highly recommended for use as a pocket pen.

Great for the price.

The pen is plastic, so the tolerances aren't as high as an AlSport or Brass model, but the color is gorgeous in person. My medium nib writes very well.

Great little pen!

This is the second Kaweco I've owned (misplaced my first one) and they're a lot of fun to write with. Need to use it posted, but that's pretty standard for pocket pens. I actually like the smaller form factor, as some larger pens can feel a bit top heavy while using them. This is never an issue with these.

Great pocket pen - but surprisingly small

Pros: (1) EF writes well out of the box. Good German nib(2) Very secure cap that will not come off in my pocket. Happy :)Possible Cons: (1) about 2/3 the size of any other pen. If you have hands, you will need to post the cap to write with it(2) Lamy plastic is much harder. This plastic is bendable. It feels solid, but not as solid(3) Like other reviews, the color online is deceiving. This pen is a much darker, medium orange color. Not a bright orange

Nice colour for a good pen!

I'm a fan of the Kaweco Sport pens and this is no exception! The colour in person is a little less saturated, not as bright, which I think makes it more similar to an actual fox colour. It writes nice, doesn't give me any issues. As it all plastic it can be converted to eyedropper but since this one is solid you would not be able to see the ink level inside the pen. Overall, if you like the colour and are looking for a well behaved small pen I would say go for it!

Look at this new color!

I think I have all the Kaweco Skyline Sports and Classics, and this one is a really cool addition. In person, the color is a slightly muted medium orange, so it's not terribly bright. More of an earthy orange. I love it :-)

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use this pen with ink cartridges? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

A cartridge is small, disposable, sealed plastic reservoir that holds fountain pen ink. These come pre-filled with ink, and typically you just push to insert them into place and you'll be ready to write!

This pen uses standard international ink cartridges, a common size which is available in many colors from various brands.

You can learn more about how to actually install an ink cartridge on our blog, or in this video tutorial:

How do I use a converter? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

A converter goes in the place of where the ink cartridge would normally go. From there, you can fill your fountain pen from bottled ink.

A converter is a detachable and refillable ink reservoir that allows you to use bottled ink in a cartridge-accepting pen. Typically you will install the converter into the grip section, dip the nib/feed into the ink, and twist or pull the converter knob to draw ink into the converter.

We have a great video showing how to use a converter here:

How do I clean this fountain pen? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It mostly comes down to flushing out the pen with water, and sometimes a little bit of pen flush if the ink is really stuck. 

We put together a blog post with step-by-step instructions, or you can watch the video here:

We recommend a good cleaning every 2 weeks, and any time you change ink colors. Water will usually do the trick, but we recommend you use our Goulet Pen Flush if the ink has been left in the pen for a while and could have dried up, or when you’re switching ink colors.

For even more information about fountain pen cleaning, check out our Fountain Pen 101 video blog post.
