Brass Sport Rollerball Pen

Brass is a wonderful material for producing pens. It's strong, it's heavy and looks and feels great. Lots of pens have brass barrels or components but the brass is normally hidden away under layers of paint or plastic. Not so with the Kaweco Brass Sport.Made from solid lead-free 'eco' brass, which is left untreated and uncoated, it weighs in at 46g which is more than most other pens currently available. The untreated finish means this pen will - like the Al-Sport Raw that came before it - wear over time and develop a unique patina depending on use and storage conditions. The finish can either be left to develop or can be restored using brass polish and a liberal application of elbow grease.The Brass Sport closely follows an original 1935 octagonal design. The oversized cap arrangement creates a small closed pen but a full length open pen. Closed, the pen is just 108mm long, open 133mm long. The barrel is 14mm in diameter (around the cap).. Circular barrel with octagonal cap. Accepts standard G2 refill. Supplied with one Black G2 capless rollerball refill. Machined from solid brass. Raw brass finish: will wear-in over time resulting in a unique burnished surface.. Length capped: 108mm. Length posted: 130mm. Length: 102mm. Diameter: 11mm. Hand-assembled in Germany
