Lamy Safari vs Sailor Pro Gear

It uses a cartridge converter filler system, but I thought we just go over the pen. We'll take a little closer look at it I'll talk about some of the ...

By no meanings I am an expert, I just want a fine nib fountain pen that I could write in the long run. I used to write with Pilot MR and really enjoyed it for daily writing, but maybe cuz my lack of knowing how to maintain the nib, usually after a year the nib gets stuck and I replace it with a new MR. But I have always wanted a fancier fountain pen for long term. I am not a big fan of this fountain pen size but I guess it is a Japanese thing that they like to make things cute and small

For a big pen, these things hold surprisingly little ink when used with a standard converter. I far prefer using a syringe to refill Lamy cartridges. I suspect refilled cartridges hold 2/3 more ink than converters. 2) Lamy clips bag out over time

I love my PELIKAN but for a fine-point nib it's more towards a strong medium and the ink flows very freely. (BTW I bought the PELIKAN Souveran M1000 green/black with a fine-point nib--had to return it because it laid the ink down very thick and, was again, closer to a medium plus nib.). So

Anyway, let's look at the design of this pen, how it's put together. We'll do a writing sample, and then we'll talk about the longevity sort of stuff....

While one of the pens was tested and personalized prior to shipment, this one was not, and both pens came to me writing perfectly. Side-by-side, the fine is a perfect eastern fine, and the medium is a perfect eastern medium. This is not insignificant considering many pens have nibs that can vary by one whole size, such as my lamy F and M with have the exact same line. The build quality is fantastic

While this is obvious to me, only someone paying close attention would notice. 5) Bulky. Not something you would think of when shopping for your fountain pen, but this Lamy does not fit into the compartmentalized pen holders in all of my briefcases. Due to the large body and squared off ends (as opposed to the traditional "torpedo" shape), it can be akward getting this pen into the compartments when I am in a rush

I have this pen, it’s beautiful but heavy. To me it’s not a first pen, particularly with a stub. It would feel really weird to her if she’s only used ball points, gel or fine liners.
