Lamy Safari Fountain Pen, Charcoal

This was my gift to my father, he loves it. He is a doctor and he enjoys a good pen. There is no such thing as to adaptating to this pen, it literally fits in between your fingers.

This is the best starting fountain pen as a writing instrument. Lamy are the best ones. I love this pen and writes smooth. Value of Money.

It writes wonderfully straight out of the box. Those buying this would do well to note the difference between American and European nibs vis-a-vis Japanese nibs. Japanese nibs write thinner, so choose accordingly. I happily made the correct choice and have not been disappointed. I do miss the narrow cardboard sleeve though that Lamy generally ships their pens in. This one came in a slightly bigger box, with a warranty from WilliamPenn for 2 years so I am not complaining! Overall, an excellent buy and much better than many high-end instruments.

Something is good, something is bad....1. This pen is awesome, touch and feel is great.2. Made from ABS plastic...its tough.3. Nicely balanced.4. Ink converter is rotating type better than piston type.5. I personally don't like looks of pen, it feels cheap. If i am investing this much, i wan't some aesthetic also. (This is my personal opinion)6. Delivery time taken by M/s. Aadhya sales Corporation, whom i paid Rs 45 as delivery charge and he took 8 days to deliver from Delhi to Bangalore. (This is also my personal opinion)Hit like if you think my review is helpful.

Lamy is the best for the cost. Great packaging and suprisingly had a converter which is mentioned by the retail manufacter that it does not have and you have to buy seperately. The charcoal finish is extremely good and so is the black nib. Looks classy with black accessories on your hand. Using lamy ink which is as good as the pen. Cheers.

Its a really good pen! The only problem is that even the fine tip is like medium in pilot metropolitan

Writes smooth. The best fountain pen one can have. Holding the pen is perfect. The finish is too good.

This pen is great for its price (Rs. 1830/-).Pros: Great nib, Good grip, sturdy material, good finish, comes with a converter (not mentioned in specs)Cons: Lightweight. If you post the cap, the weight increases but the overall pen is not balanced. Odd looking clip.Bottomline: Great pen with great finish and quality.
