Lamy 2000 Ballpoint Pen - Black L201 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)There are so many reasons to like this pen--let me just list them.
1) It is a day to day workhorse. The finish is rugged and the kind of finish that mellows with age and actually improves with the trauma of a week's use. The fiberglass/resin has a very slightly coarse finish that wears down after one week and then you can't tell a 10 year old 2000 from a 7 day old one. The finish looks great always. No cringing when you drop it--it'll be just fine. Ladies can just throw it in a purse and let in knock around with anything else--it'll be just fine.
2) Lightweight--does not pull down on the chest pocket. Does not tire the hand.
3) Perfect size--not real skinny--not a big stubby bulky thing.
4) The clip is rock solid and there is not challenge moving in or out of the pocket.
5) Click mechanism is rock solid--can RARELY jam-up but with a little twiddling it'll fix itself.
6) Pen itself is solid--not rattling or creaky/clicky when writing with this pen.
7) Dress it up, dress it down--great with a three piece suit, great with jeans.
8) Lamy ink refill is consistent--ink is a little dry and doesn't glide across paper like some but gives a good feel--kinda like driving a nibble sports car where you feel the road rather than a floaty Cadillac. Also the ink does not tend to form those gunky bits at the tip of the pen that need to be cleaned. I like the broad refill myself. Did I mention that the refills last a really long time?
9) The pen itself is accompanied with a bit of history--at least the fountain pen is and well this is a derivative of that.
I promise...for those who don't mind spending a few extra dollars on a pen...and don't lose them...this is the go to pen. And if you do lose it--at least it wasn't a 300 dollar Mont Blanc.
