Great first/daily pen June 15, 2008 I'm new to the world of fountain pens. Having said that, this is a great first pen. It writes well. It is a tad scratchy, but I kind of enjoy that. It is not a pretty pen, but overall a solid one that seems like it will hold up to daily use. Also, because it is not super expensive, I'm not afraid to lose my pen. A couple of my other co-workers have fountain pens they won't use or use seldomly because they are afraid to lose them. Know that I have fallen in love with fountain pens, I find myself wanting a pretty pen, but this pen was great for a first time user.
excellent product December 12, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is an excellent product. I would have preferred it to be a bit heavier, but that's just based on past experience with Montblancs. Writes beautifully.
Excellent - very pleased November 26, 2007 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I bought the Lamy Safari medium nibbed fountain pen after seeing my numerous Flickr friends using them to draw & write, all while claiming that they like the Lamy better than their much more expensive fountain pens.
It seemed like an inexpensive way to try a "real" fountain pen as opposed to the wet writer Pilot Varsity disposable I had been using. I bought the Lamy ink converter, so I could fill the pen with the famed Bulletproof Black Noodlers ink Noodlers Polar Black Bulletproof Eel Fountain Pen Ink to write in my Moleskine Moleskine Ruled Reporter Notebook journal, as well as do ink drawings & watercolor washes on watercolor paper.
Many people claim that the Lamy's don't bleed or feather in the Moleskines, but through additional research, it seems to depend on the particular paper lot of the Moleskines. So far, I personally have not had a problem with bleeding or feathering with the medium nibbed Lamy Safari in any of my Moleskine journals, or the Moleskine Cahiers. Ruled Cahier
I loved this Lamy so much, (the tip is as smooth as writing with a soft tipped pencil), that I just bought another one, with a fine nib and a bottle of Waterman Blue-Black ink.
PS - I am using the regular Noodlers black ink as opposed to the Polar. Amazon didn't have a link for the regular ink.

This is not a Mont Blanc Fountain Pen, but it works just as well.
Excellent value.
Medium-point fountain pens are automatic handwriting improvers March 12, 2007 11 out of 12 found this review helpful
This is one of the best fountain pens under $50 USD, for fountain pen novices or for experienced fountain pen users. This is not a calligraphy pen, but the "medium" point (like a broad ballpoint, or maybe even a bit wider than that) forces you to write larger letter sizes and improve your handwriting. The grip is comfy, and it "forces" you to treat your writing wrist well.
