Good relation price/detail December 22, 2008
I am using Lamy since my high school, so is a confident pen, and the design is comfortable and friendly with my fingers. I s not only a signature pen, is a good pen to write a letter instead. In few words the price and the quality of Lamy is enough for me.
Better than expected. December 3, 2008

This pen is my all around workhorse. I got it because I wanted a pen that I could take to school with me everyday (I am a graduate student), and one that had enough of a reservoir to put up with lots of note taking. I have an antique Esterbrook J-Series that I love, but I was always afraid of loosing it, and the reservoir is quite small.
I must say that I was very impressed with the results. The fine nib is incredibly smooth, allowing me to quickly take notes during lectures. The construction of the pen is solid and, as another reviewer noted, without the cap it is nearly weightless. (I have larger hands and prefer to write with the cap on, but still, the plastic construction means that with the cap it is quite light.)
I invested in the converter to use bottled ink, and I would recommend that others do so as well.
If I have any gripe at all, it is with the indented grip, I would have preferred no indentations, or a small rubber grip like the one that Pelikan uses on its 25 dollar plastic fountain pen (sorry , I don't recall the exact name).
All in all, I am exceedingly pleased with this pen.
Great Pen! August 15, 2008
This pen looks great and writes beautifully as well. It's very comfortable in the hand, and not at all scratchy when you're writing. I really recommend this pen for someone who loves writing with fountain pens but doesn't want to spend a fortune.
Lamy's Safari- one of the best values in fountain pens around! July 20, 2008

Somehow, I find some humor in the fact that this pen is so well rated, yet most reviewers take care to point out that it isn't the prettiest, most overpriced, or fanciest pens around. Unlike many companies, Lamy makes pens and pencils. They don't use pretentious euphemisms for pens like those other companies, nor do they charge 10x-100x what the pens are worth. They do make awesome pens like the Safari, which are indestructible and feel good in the hand, and they make some incredibly smooth nibs.
The Safari does make an awesome starter fountain pen, but it's a starter pen that'll last you your entire life. I recommend a Fine or Medium nib if you're new to a fountain pens. You can even buy spare nibs for the Lamy so that you can swap between different sizes.
Love this pen - smoother than my Mont Blanc!!! March 25, 2008

I decided to switch to a fountain pen for ecological reasons (maybe that was just the excuse I needed to justify the expense). The last fountain pen I owned was a Mont Blanc I had treated myself to after graduating some 25 years ago. That pen was very scratchy and turned me off on fountain pens in general. I was hesitant about buying another fine point after the experience with the Mont Blanc, but the reviews were so good, I thought I'd give it a try. This pen is incredibly smooth. I ordered the pen (cool white color), converter refill and some Noodler's ink from Pencity.com. Their price was great, they had everything I needed and the customer service was wonderful!!!
I was so happy with this pen, I ordered the medium point because I often prefer a slightly bolder stroke. I think it is a great pen and the low price is just a bonus. This pen is perfect for my writing style. It's a little bolder than the fine point but not too bold. Writes even more smoothly than the fine point (didn't think that was possible).
A PLUS for the fine point - good pen to keep in a purse, because of the fine line it can write on any quality paper and still be readable.
