Kaweco Sport Fountain Pen - Toyama Teal (Collector's Edition)
The Kaweco Sport is a pocket-sized fountain pen that when posted transforms into a full-sized pen that easily fits in your hand. This beautiful pearlescent teal resin is reminiscent of the shimmering waves of water and it comes with a silver steel nib and an ink cartridge to get you started writing right away! Depending on the particular light irradiation, the pearly pigments sparkle more or less intensively. The overall design is completed by silver elements.
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.
As part of the Kaweco Collector's Edition, this color is limited in production.
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.

Customer Reviews
My experience with Goulet is always good. I ordered this pen on the recommendation of someone I know, as my carry-around note-taking pen. I'm in meetings a lot and need to have a pen ready, and this wouldn't take up much space. To be honest, I didn't expect the steel nib to be very smooth, especially in an EF. But good grief, it turned out to be the smoothest nib I've used. (To be fair, it's about the size of a Japanese F, so it's not right to compare it to my Pilot.) Anyway, it's a little gem. I emptied the cartridge that came with it and syringed in some Noodler's Baystate Blue so my notes would be waterproof (potential spilled tea and all), and I couldn't be happier. Oh, and this special teal color is just as nice as the pictures show.
This is a really nice color to go with my other Kaweco Sports. I have about 10 of them. It writes very smoothly and I like to just sit and look at it because it is so attractive. This is one of my favorite colors.
Great pen and great quality at an affordable price. I bought three of these now in different nib sizes and they all write just fine. Also purchased the piston converters and the setup works really nice.
Perfect edc! Beautiful color
The pen's really got an awesome glow to it. Haven't quit inked it up yet but will update review.
FAQs about Fountain Pens
How do I fill a fountain pen with ink?
It depends on the pen's filling mechanism, which you can find in the Technical Specs section above.
Here's a quick definition of the most common filling mechanisms:
- Cartridge - A 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! Check out our quick guide here.
- Converter - 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. Here's a video for how to fill a cartridge/converter pen using a LAMY pen as an example.
- Eyedropper - A pen that utilizes the entire barrel as a reservoir for ink. Ink is directly filled into the barrel, allowing for a high ink capacity. Here's a video on how to do it!
- Piston - A type of filling system that uses a retracting plunger inside a sealed tube to draw ink into a pen. They are typically either twist or push-operated. These pens cannot accept cartridges or a converter, and only fill from bottled ink.
- Vacuum - A push-style piston that uses pressure to fill the large pen body with ink. They seal the ink chamber when closed, making it ideal for flying without risk of leaking. Check out our video on how to use a vac filler here.
Check out more info on these filling mechanisms including a video on how to fill each one on our blog.
How do I clean a fountain pen?
It depends on the filling mechanism, but it mostly comes down to flushing it out with water, and sometimes a little bit of Pen Flush if the ink is really stuck.
It's a bit easier to show than to tell, so we've put together a few quick videos showing you the process:
How often do I need to clean my fountain pen?
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.
My pen won’t write! What do I do?
First things first... make sure you have ink in the pen! Be sure that the ink cartridge or converter is seated properly in the pen, and that you aren't out of ink.
We always recommend you give your pen a good cleaning first, using our Goulet Pen Flush, or a drop of dish soap in some water. New pens often have some machining oil residue left in the feed, so a good cleaning often does the trick first.
If that still doesn't work, try priming the feed. This consists of either dipping your pen nib and feed in ink, or forcing ink from the converter down into the feed.
If it’s still not working after that, please reach out to us so we can help!
