Customer Reviews
I got this pen with the medium nib as my first pen (after much searching for a good pen). It writes smooth, and is so easy to refill with the converter. Comes with instructions, that are really simple to use! Would definitely recomend for most skill levels.
I love this pen so much that I just ordered a second one in a different color. It writes beautifully, is comfortable to hold, and looks very cool
This came so highly recommended and I was so excited to try it. I ordered it in the Extra-Fine nib and found I absolutely HATE the writing experience. The nib was very "dry" I guess is the word, the ink didn't flow out evenly and writing in print was exhausting. Cursive worked best but I still hated the extra-fine nib. I've ordered a Medium nib so I'm hoping it changes my opinion! The pen itself is light and overall comfortable to hold. It does become tail heavy (for me) when posted so I use it without the cap.
This is my first Lamy, and I'm in love. It writes smoothly, and the medium nib is perfect for me.
It’s a great pen. The EF nib is a little scratchy, but other than that I really enjoy it
