Sad, pen really cool

not for you? Oh well, I guess you could just send it to me to take you off the burden

Thanks for your review. I ordered 2 Old World Harness belts - one in black and the other in refined tan so I have the same belt for all outfits. Your review sealed the deal.

I was "afraid" of the brasssmell, so I got the Kaweco AL Sport Gold Edition ... to have kind of the same colour, without the smell.... and I dont have problem with the grip. Just an idea.

I got my first of their belts back in 2016. It had holes all the way down the belt. I don’t see that one listed still. I work outside and it’s lasted for the last 8 years. I bought a Montana bison as a nicer going out belt. Excellent belts.

what color is this? Rich Brown or Refined Tan? Looking at it on their website and your color looks different than whats currently offered.

It only rattles when you are putting it on or taking it off. Doesn't bother me on mine I have two. Good video

is the edges burnished

Are all Hanks belt stiff ? Do they have any option with soft leather ?

That branding is terrible. So much lettering.

How long does the pen last without drying out when left unused? For EDC, i may need to write once in quarter or so... everything else is typed nowadays

Don't be a buying victim in all this. You're supposed to tell your doctor about your troubles, not the public. Manufacturers work to a 10 year time frame. You're supposed to wear in the pen. You may have to burnish the threads. So you rub a hard polished metal over the soft metal and push down or break off the crisp edges of a freshly cut thread.

Sounds like you like it stiff 😅

Beautiful belt.

Is the rattle bad enough to make you wanna buy a separate buckle without the roller?

Nice review. I've got the Montana Bison belt and my feelings are pretty much identical to yours. I've also had the issue where the Chicago screw catches on the end of the belt, a minor annoyance. And you're absolutely right about the belt making it easier to get your pants on. Unexpected benefit!

You can look at the belt buckle rattle two ways. 1) it wakes the wife up when you put your pants on or 2) it wakes her up when you take them off. Belt looks great

You should get outside and use your hands for something and toughen them up a bit buddy

you have weak girlish hands. must be rough.

Sounds like you got soft hands, brother

I like the threads. Adds control.

I have both the Brass Sport and the Bronze Sport. My Brass has smooth screw threads but the Bronze one was sharp AF there... I just wrapped the thread area in a fine grit (800) sandpaper, gave it a few turns and now it's just as smooth as the Brass one. Good luck!

That pen looks like a .50 BMG ammo!

Thanks for making this video. I feel it’s important for people to know if something is right for them, not just what the majority things is best. Kind of reminds me of the debate with the LAMY Safari grip sections, love ‘em or hate ‘em. As a side note, I do have a grip close to the nib so I decided to pull the trigger myself.

Interesting. I would have thought that it would not be much different than a knurled metal grip.

Thanks for the wonderful review!! I don't think the threads will bother me, but it's GREAT to see someone point out features/benefits and pros/cons....based on their real and honest opinion from actual use. Pay no attention to criticism of holding....fantastic review and write how you want to write!

Thank you for pointing this out. Why only 2 videos on your channel? Hope you start posting again.

The threads bothering you struck me as odd so I checked with my fountain pen group. Seventeen of us own a brass sport. None of us have problems with the threads. Some intentional hold the pen on the threads because they think it gives them better control. I'm one of them. The surprising thing to me was that of the seventeen Brass Sport owners, ten are women. Anyway, I use fountain pens more than most. About eight hours per day on average, five hours each morning, and three each evening. I frequently use the Brass Sport for the morning five hour session, and the threads rest on the side on my middle finger. Never have they bothered me. This is saying something because I have some very, very, very expensive pens. My take everywhere, never without pens were the Visconti Homo Sapiens Bronze Age, the Scribo Feel, and the Pilot Custom 823. I rotate two or three or four other pens depending on where I'm going and how long I'll be there, including a Namiki Chinkin and a Namiki Maki-e. But now the 823 is out of my daily carry pens, replaced by the Kaweco Brass Sport. It's odd how often an dhow long I do use the Brass Sport, considering how many other pens I have. In addition to a pretty fair number of expensive pens with gold nibs, I have around fifty pens with steel nibs. These are Most TWSBI, but also Conkling, Pilot, Benu, and a couple of other brands. I never, ever use the Brass Sport fewer than ten hours per week, so it really does get more than it's fair share of use. I find this pen is too heavy at the back to choke down on. The farther back I hold it, the better it writes, and the longer I enjoy using it, so I grip it right on the threads. I don't find them at all sharp, and even after a five hour session, my middle finger is fine. I don't really "fiddle" with my pen, but I do intentionally rub my finger back and forth across the threads when I'm thinking about what I want to write next. I don't know why the threads bother you so much. How tight or loose you grip the pen? Sensitive skin? But you are the first Brass Sport owned I've known who couldn't use the pen because of the threads. The vast majority I've talked to don't even notice them, and as I said, some intentionally hold the pen by the threads for more control.

I own the Burgundy plastic model with gold nib and clip and I barely feel the threads, They are not sharp or extend much at all. the grip is great for me. There is a reason, this is the most popular everyday pen. or what they now call edc. I recommend the Burgundy, as it's also the most beautiful, has the performance and quality that all the most expensive models have and it only costs 25 euros, which is a steal.

Well, you must have gotten a pen with a few problems. Try another example, or learn to hold the pen in the correct way. As far as I am concerned, it is USER ERROR on your part that makes the Kaweco Brass Sport unusable for you.

You can smooth the thread tips a tiny little bit with sanding paper in a carefull way or give it to a machinist. The inner and outer thread is holding on their flanks so it's no problem.

Hey whats that rectangular wooden tray in the background of your thumbnail pic? Can you link it?

Thanks man. How do you like your SuperNote

Is this the HOM2 samurai alloy pen?
