Lamy Safari Pink - Limited Edition Medium Point Fountain Pen - L013PKM Review

Lamy Safari Pink - Limited Edition Medium Point Fountain Pen - L013PKM
Average Reviews:

this is a lovely pink shade and the service from the seller was very good - no complaints. my comment is with the design of the pen's grip. By all accounts it works well for a lot of people. But, if you are like me, left handed, and an "over writer" who holds her nib parallel to the line she's writing on, you won't like the grip on the pen. It's triangulated to "guide" your fingers to hold the nib to where most folks will find it works well. But that same "guide" does not work well for those who write the way I do - a simple circular grip is my preference.
I'd also comment, as you may hear from many folks, that Lamy nibs tend to write on the "fat" side of whatever they're designated - this medium is a very fat line, and I also have a Studio (love that pen) with an F nib that looks pretty close to a true medium.
so: pretty pen, and totally grand if the grip works for you. No problems with nib smoothness or ink flow. If not, it is at best a signature pen, unfortunately.

Lamy Joy AL Fountain Pen - Black/Silver, 1.5mm Nib L11-1.5 Review

I have been using a Safari for a few years and love it; I thought a broader tip might be a fun change of pace so I ordered this pen.
While I was disappointed with the cap (it doesn't stay on the end of the pen when in use) it's a lovely looking pen and the length of it makes it feel like an elegant writing piece.
I have the 1.1 nib, and find it has enough flare to be a bit fancier looking for letters and correspondence, but not so much it's not appropriate for use in the office.
I first tried to use a cartridge with it, but didn't like it. I found that the converter is a much smoother and consistent writing experience, no wonder it's included with the pen. If it matters I use the Lamy brand bottled ink. I'm very happy with the way it writes and wonder at this point if I'll go back to the regular Safari!

Lamy Safari Red Broad Point Fountain Pen - L16B Review

Lamy Safari Red Broad Point Fountain Pen - L16B
Average Reviews:

Lamy produces a fountain pen superior to even much more expensive fountain pens - I have shelved my Montblanc in favor of carrying my Lamy for daily use. The nib slides across paper of any tooth, rather than dragging or tearing at the fibers. Lamy is a German manufacturer who makes writing instruments geared to all levels of scribes, including schoolchildren. Pairs wonderfully with Moleskine sketch- and notebooks.

Lamy Safari Converter Z24 Review

I purchased this with my Lamy Safari fountain pen, and I am glad I did. Using the converter allows me to use my choice of inks with my new pen. Operation is simple, twisting the top of the converter draws in ink through the nib. The converter also snaps securely into the pen, so there is no risk of it coming out.
This product does exactly what it should. No extra bells or whistles, and no buying extra ink cartridges.

Lamy Safari Yellow Ballpoint Pen - L218 Review

Lamy Safari Yellow Ballpoint Pen - L218
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I loved the pen which fits my hand and writes smoothly. It is a pity that after using for about four weeks writing memos on, say, about total 20 sheets of letter paper, strokes became scratchy and vanished. It seems that ink ran out.
I would recommend securing refills before buying the pen.
