Kaweco LILIPUT Fountain Pen Fireblue I Premium Blued Stainless Steel Fountain Pen for Ink Cartridges I Exclusive Fountain Pen 12.5 cm I Nib: M (Medium)

Product Information

But the unposted pen feels much nicer. Unposted, the Supra weighs 42g (1.48 ounces) so it still feels hefty, but the length is cut down to around 12.5cm (5.25 inches). Branding is minimal — just a laser-etched logo in the domed steel of the pen end, and a little more round the barrel. Length of extended Supra capped and closed: about 13 cm or 5 1⁄ 8 inches. Length of extended Supra posted, excluding nib: about 14 cm or 5 1⁄ 2 inches. Length of shorter Supra (without extension piece) capped and closed: about 9.7 cm or just over 3 3⁄ 4 inches. I personally think the Fireblue looks better in person. I know that doesn’t help. 😀 Maybe wait till you could see one in person? The Supra has a screw-in metal extension to make the pen longer, which can be removed if you want a shorter pen. In the above photo, the Supra is full-size with the extension between the section and the rest of the pen body.

Both these steel Liliputs have a nice heft, weighing a few grams more than the Kaweco AL-Sport. That’s a comfortable weight for me for writing, but makes for a solid-feeling pen that seems able to withstand the slings and arrows of carry-around use. I am a fan of these Kaweco stainless steel nibs. They’ve been very good out-of-the-box in my experience, but I like that they can be easily adjusted if you want to increase ink flow. I also love being able to remove them for cleaning, and to swap them into other Kaweco pens. This is the interesting part of the story... blue coloring by annealing is well known to all the watch aficionados out there. Parts of the movement or the hands of the watch are blued by heating. Different temperatures resulting in different colors of the workpiece. And exactly this is how it works with the Liliput: In the process of annealing heat is applied for each Fireblue piece individually by manual labor. In color matching caps, bodies and sections are put together afterwards so every single Liliput Fireblue is one of a kind.There isn’t a weight benefit of using the Supra in shorter mode. Because the short Supra is a mini-pen, it needs to be posted, and the short Supra posted weighs about the same as the extended Supra unposted — about 40 grams. Posting the cap brings the weight of the extended Supra to about 50 grams. The extended Supra is nicely balanced and comfortable, so I just used it that way. I even carried the Supra around extended, albeit in a pen case. From here, the pen can be posted without the middle section, making it 13.5cm (5.25 inches). Just slightly longer than the pen with the middle section, unposted. This was my favorite setup – the pen weighs 39 g, so most of the weight remains, but the length is great for my hand.

Everyone who opposes fireblu textures, will be consumed by it and become part of it, blinking forever and no one will hear your screams and pleads. Being the one who mostly stays outside of the community, I feel really confused now. FIREBLU is ugly? Seriously? It is one of my favorite textures! Weight of the extended Supra: approximately 50 grams capped and approximately 40 grams uncapped. Weight of the shorter Supra without extension piece: approximately 40 grams. I'm wondering if there is anything that would react with the actual oxide layer that makes the metal look blue (among other colors obviously). If all of that is inert and doesn't matter, then there's surely a way to get this pen and then coat it to preserve the colors.

Whilst I'm most definitely not saying that zscript is anything other than great, I feel that many people who don't have enough of a programmers head on their shoulders will find zscript too techy to be their goto modding tool. Take Nash's "minimal coding" example here: The Kaweco Supra Fireblue is made of blue stainless steel and is a real eye-catcher. It is produced from high-quality stainless steel and is 'blued' by hand, which makes every item individual.

But I guess it could be risky.Take a look at the Supra’s supersized nib. It sure won’t fit into a Kaweco Sport. Below is a Pelikan M205 and a Montblanc LeGrand (146 size) flanking the Supra. The Supra has a bigger nib than even the Montblanc. In this respect it’s like the Schon, but unlike the Schon the Supra is actually a convertable, extendable pen, too. With the Supra or Liliput you post by screwing the cap onto screw threads at the end of the pen, which is very secure. I did note that the screw threads seem to be longer than normal. It takes about three turns to post the Supra or Liliput, and almost four turns to cap or uncap either model.
