The LAMY Safari is a workhorse pen, known throughout the pen community for its ruggedness, reliability, and no-nonsense functionality. The triangular grip makes it great for those starting out that may not know how to hold a fountain pen, but it's used and loved by fountain pen lovers of all levels of experience. This shiny black Safari comes with an interchangeable black steel nib, which can be easily swapped out for another size. this fountain pen comes with a blue LAMY ink cartridge so you can get started writing right away. If you'd like to use bottled fountain pen ink, you can also purchase a LAMY Z28 converter.
Note: to ensure quality performance, LAMY tests their pens as a final step in manufacturing. If you happen to see any residual blue ink, rest assured that this is normal.

I bought this in a 1.1 mm italic nib and absolutely love the appearance of the text it produced. Like all Lamy's this a comfortable, well-balanced, well-priced pen. If I was going to gift a fountain pen to a first time user it would absolutely be a Lamy. The shiny black with the silver clip is an understated look but this pen is a keeper.
Will come and get another. Need to try a fine nib
