My first fountain pen was an inexpensive Lamy safari Pens which I received when I was in the third grade.
In the years since, I've owned several fountain pens - some family heirlooms, others more modern incarnations of classic pens. Though I don't use a fountain pen daily, I keep two Levenger Tru-Writers (one with a fine nib, one broad) and a Cross with a medium nib nearby. All use converters so I can write with a variety of inks (the real fun of writing with a fountain pen!)
I highly recommend the Lamy Safari to anyone who wish to take the plunge into fountain pen writing. In fact, I would recommend this pen to anyone who likes fountain pens.
It may not be a Mercedes, but it can be a dependable Toyota Corolla or Honda Civic - not fancy, but it certainly gets the job done. I plan on buying a few more of these pens.
