tangy<p>For Christmas I got the lovely Kaweco Sport Piston Filler, and I was chuffed! After years with the Steel Sport, I was looking forward to using a pocket pen with less weight and a piston. </p><p>However, the new pen has hard starts… It’s been cleaned (water with a little dish soap), the tines seem ok, nothing otherwise weird with the nib, and the ink flows smoothly when I get the flow started. Currently inked with Lamy Crystal Benitoite, an ink I never had issues with when in use with the Steel Sport. </p><p>Any tips?</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/FountainPen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FountainPen</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/FountainPenInk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FountainPenInk</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Kaweco" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kaweco</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/KawecoSport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KawecoSport</span></a></p>
