Lamy Joy

I found this tribe only after my first fountain pen purchase (Lamy Joy italic, Fall 2019) in an airport in Germany, fueled only by jet lag and the need for some self love. In love with this pen I looked for others who shared this love and discovered a whole world of delight.

This is a great pen, and ships with the Lamy FP Converter Refill - Safari Z24Lamy FP Converter Refill - Safari Z24 , an extra value that allows you to use your own ink- this frees you from using the pre-packaged refill cartridges, and will save a lot of money over time. This was my first Lamy pen, a...

If “Sunshine” and “Joy” were a literal cake. :) Fabulously executed! The ADHD loves derailing ambitious, important projects like this but you said NOT TODAY and then made this stunning creation. Inspiring!

I like the pen. Very comfortable. I tried a knock off and loved it, thought I better invest in the real thing. I like how the converter is more secure in the pen, but was surprised when the nib was not as nice as the knock off, clogging easier. I still feel it’s a good buy

I love the look of it posted, but it throws my handwriting off because of the extra weight on the end. My Lamy Joy and Safari are super light at about 11g each (I bought them for this reason) but the shafts are still quite thick; even with the ergonomic grip they aren't super comfortable for pages of writing. My favourite non-fountain pen is the Pilot G-Tec-C4m which is both very thin and very light. I'd love to have a fountain pen that is "just right" for me.

I bought this just for the nib. I wish Lamy and Amazon made the nibs available for a better price, but as it was I could get the whole pen for just a little more than the nib and shipping. Amazon was not and still is not today selling the nibs, so Prime or Super Saver shipping isn't available. Rathe...

Today, however, I wrote for the first time with a Lamy Joy 1.5 mm stub and I. Loved. It. The writing experience was smooth, the line thickness was fantastic and it wasn't super wet.

Wow. Feather light, good balance, very comfortable in the hand, flow of ink is also good, for the price I would definitely recommend it. People noticed the writing quality on my sketches. Technical drafting/detailing also kind of more than average although not necessarily a confirmed application for...

Now I can make shirts, totes, etc. I think I’m going to keep both because the Joy is very portable, if I want to take it on vacation, I can. Or if I want to chill at someone else’s house, I can and don’t have to worry about lugging it to and fro, so def check out FB marketplace for deals, you never know what you will find.

A plastic modern twist on a classic desktop pen design. I never liked the ink window of Lamy pens as it only shows the top 10% of the ink cavity. The remaining 90% is between the nib tip and the ink window. Pen is all plastic and uses the same nib, feed, grip, and cap from a Lamy Safari and Vista. O...
