A nice Lamy demonstrator.
I did have a tiny issue where one of the little slots that the converter fits into had a tiny extra bit of plastic where there shouldn't have been an extra bit. A quick moment to clean it out was all that was needed. Just a bit surprised I encountered that on a Lamy.

This is a lovely, lovely pen. Sometimes, with heavier pens like this, the balance and feel will be enough to keep the extra weight from bothering me. That's not quite the case with this pen (i.e., it FEELS heavy to ME), but it's not too bad.

I got the special edition Terra (orange) color. It's great! I paired it with Monteverde Fire Opal ink, and it's a match made in (writer) heaven.

This is a great EDC fountain pen and possibly a perfect pen. The weight, style, color, and providing the right amount of feedback have made it one of my favorites (EF Nib). Some people have commented on having problems with the grip section, but I have not had that experience.

It is reassuring to know that if I damage the nib it can easily be replaced.

Excellent writer. My only comparison is a Pilot Metropolitan. It writes a little "wetter" than the Metropolitan. It is reassuring to know I can replace the nibs if damaged without replacing the rest of the pen.

I really admire Lamy's design philosophy. Replacing nibs with so many other pens is a big production, fraught with peril; with a Lamy, just pull the old nib off and slip the new one onto the feed. So easy! I also like that I don't have to go through the hassle of buying a whole other pen to pull the nib out of - less waste of money and resources that way.
I've ordered a couple of these. The most recent one was a black EF that replaced a defective nib on a Safari I'd had for a while. Now it writes better than new, smooth and fine. I also like these for trying new nib sizes on different pens. What's not to like?

When I first saw these pens, I thought they were hideous. Then I got curious and had to get one. I've since ordered a white and a charcoal Safari here, and I'm always using them. For my purposes (teaching and creative writing), there's a lot to like:
-lightweight body - easy on the hand for extended writing
-smooth nibs that make writing nearly effortless
-a big sturdy clip that actually does what it's supposed to do (without mangling my shirt pockets)
-a useful ink window
-generous-sized cartridges(if not using converters)
-durability (I mean, these WERE built with school in mind...)
-relatively dry flow makes wetter inks usable on more kinds of paper
-nib-swapping is fairly affordable and extremely easy
-great lineup of colors - something for everyone
Now they're not perfect, mind you. The nibs are usually quite good but can vary widely. The fine on my white Safari is silky smooth but writes pretty broad for my tastes (I often reverse-write with it on low-quality paper); meanwhile, the black fine on my charcoal Safari is a true fine, still smooth but with some pleasant feedback. (And if you don't like your nib...good thing you can easily get a replacement one and don't have to buy a whole new pen!)
You also have to know whether that triangular section will give you problems or not. Some love it, some hate it. It's no dealbreaker for me, so I'll continue to use and enjoy my Safaris.

One of my favorite colors! Great flow. Beautiful on every paper I've used it on so I always have a pen inked up with it. I use this ink a lot & will be purchasing another one soon!

It's beautiful ink. The color is deep and rich. I love it. The bottle is of good quality, and the blotting paper is nice. It writes very smoothly.

Very nice 1.1 stub. Very underrated stub nib. If you like stubs try a Lamy stub before you buy higher priced more exotic nibs or pens. These are really excellent. Unlike the 1.5 of the 1.9, the 1.1 can be used as a daily writer. Perfect wetness. Just slightly on the dry side of the midpoint between wet and dry but this is good since is prevents feathering and bleeding on the wide vertical strokes.

At first, thought it would feel too light for my hand, but this pen is well balanced and sits sure, providing a lovely writing experience. The shape of the section allows for fine control from both index finger and thumb in a relaxed position. Was initially thinking black but happy I chose purple--the byzantium hue is sensuous, warm, and draws your fingers to it. A good beginning to every writing adventure!
