The Kaweco Sport is a pocket-sized fountain pen that when posted transforms into a full-sized pen that easily fits in your hand.

The Kaweco Collection Honey fountain pen is a great addition to the special colors of Kaweco. The gold elements match the warm appearance of the color. The package completes the overall design, imitating the visual effect of the fountain pen.

This resin fountain pen comes with a gold-plated 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.

Honey is a limited production, part of the Collector's Edition.

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.

My one complaint is the way the box was shipped. Other than that it was good fast shipping

Very fun color and a nice writer!

So bad it should come with a warning label

Let me preface this review by letting you know I love Kaweco Sport pens. I have 26 of them and I am particularly fond of the AC and AL lines. Over the years, I have had issues with my Kaweco Sport pens, mostly with them writing dry, skipping etc., which is why I keep about 8-10 spare nibs around, from EF to BB.

Now this Honey edition looks beautiful. I really like the yellow of this pen, but now we need to talk about Kaweco Quality Control. I posted a review about the Ocean Marble earlier, but that one was mostly about aesthetics but the experience with this one is a new one for me.

First, when the pen arrived, I started with the included Kaweco Blue cartridge. Much to my surprise, when I inserted the cartridge, the feed and nib fell out. So I re-inserted the feed and nib and carefully inserted the cartridge again. Then, after letting the pen sit for about 20 minutes to let the feed saturate, I was going to give it a writing sample and as usual, I tried to post the pen and discovered what I can only describe as a manufacturing issue, because I could not post the pen the way I am used to. This one kind of hit a bump and the cap just sat on top, not secure. With additional force, I could post the pen. I tried the cap on other pens and the same thing. It seams like injection molding has gone wrong inside the cap.

Lastly, the pen barely writes. Hard starts and skips so bad I did not even bother with a new nib since I won't be using this pen anyway because of the cap. Granted, the pen is only 36 bucks, but cheap Chinese pens have better quality control than Kaweco. I think the QA team seems to be a room full of monkeys with hammers, reveling in the disappointment of their customers.

Will I continue buying Kaweco's? Yes, I am a glutton for punishment, but I certainly will give it a lot more thought before I hit the BUY button.

I’m so happy I ordered this pen. The mustard color is deeper than what is pictured, which is what I was hoping for.

So pretty!

Love the "Honey" color

Love the "Honey" color. Goes well with Diamine " Honey Pot " ink.

Great pen and fun

Great pen and fun color

I thought this such a cute pen

I thought this such a cute pen. I had no cartridges that fit this tiny pen, so I ordered a converter for it.
Even the converter that was supposed to fit it was too long. I was disappointed with it.

Great service all the way

I placed my order which was a Christmas gift for my grandson at the last moment only to realize I messed up the shipping. I immediately went on line and asked if it could be corrected to arrive on time. The following day I received an email stating they would fix it but it might not arrived on time but it did. It arrived in perfect condition due to great packaging. Thank you for everything

in perfect condition due to expert packing. Thanks for everything.

very good

Lightweight good writer

My first Kaweco pen. Was surprised how lightweight. Too short for me but it does write well.

Cute Honey

Kaweco always seems to be a great pen. I've had lots of success with it being ready to write. I got yellow ink for this which was not the best bet--maybe on black paper? Anyway, I am enjoying this nice little pen.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use this pen with ink cartridges?

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?

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?

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.
