Nice fountain pen! August 28, 2010 T. Lee (Louisville, KY) I got this for calligraphy. The extra-fine nib doesn't provide the edge (to change the width of strokes) of larger nibs, but then, from what I've seen, few EF nibs do. I like the feel of the grip, and the crispness of the stroke. So far not a single splotch or ink jam. Nice pen.
Very happy with this purchase August 14, 2010 JonFox18 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I just got my pen today and am very pleased with it so far. I was using a Waterman with a medium nib and wanted to switch to something that had a finer point. Having used the Waterman, I was thrown briefly but how light this pen was, but after doing a bit of writing, it was easy to adapt. I would definitely recommend the Lamy to someone looking for a lower cost option to a Waterman fountain pen.
awesome fountain pen May 25, 2010 T. Sutherland (VA, USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a great introduction to Fountain pens. I was not even a pen guy before, I prefer mechanical pencil and eraser combo. Not if I need to write something and pencil is better, I will try to accommodate to be able to use this fountain pen.
It is addicting to use this pen on several fronts. Writing in ink is very nice, there is more definition and it looks great. A word about inks, it is better to get your own ink than use the proprietary cartridges. Ink is not created equal, some will bleed through inferior paper, and have less definition, the ink that comes with this pen is the more inferior kind. This fountain pen comes with one cartridge and you will have to purchase a separate converter for $5 somewhere else. You can find an ink that will suit you.
In the process of writing, there is a satisfying feel to it. It's like you have a rapport with the paper you are writing with. There is a feeling in you hand that you are writing with authority-you can feel every stroke and characters are written how your ind intends it.
This is a great pen, of course when you get into fountains pens you'd probably tempted to buy fountain pens the price of a Rolex watches. This is a great pen, its a great buy, I know I could not have went to Office Max or Depot and gotten it there.
