And why is the Lamy Safari Pens still one of my favorites?
Heres why....
Cheap
About $30 with a converter -
very cheap for such a well made pen
Very durable ABS plastic
See through ink window - lets you know when ink is running low
Grip - better handwriting when the pen can be held securely
Replaceable nibs - $11 and very simple to replace
Easy to flush & refill with a different color ink
Very firm nib - no flex - great for Drawing.
Custom nib grinding $15 from Pendemonium
Even though it's quite wonderful and a great first pen, there are a few things that some people don't like about the Safari.
I don't really have any problems, though I did have a hard time with Diamine Imperial Purple staining my yellow Safari. luckily, I was able to get it fully clean again.
