The LAMY safari is a workhorse pen, known throughout the fountain pen community for its ruggedness, reliability, and no-nonsense functionality. The triangular grip makes it great for those starting out who have no idea how to hold a fountain pen, but it's used and loved by fountain pen lovers of all levels of experience.

This pink safari comes with an interchangeable silver steel nib, which can be easily swapped out for another size. This fountain pen comes with a blue LAMY ink cartridge so you can get started writing right away.

If you'd like to use bottled fountain pen ink, you can also purchase a LAMY Z28 converter.

This color was previously the special edition color of the year in 2009 before becoming a regular edition in 2014.

Note: To ensure quality performance, LAMY tests their pens as a final step in manufacturing. If you happen to see any residual blue ink, rest assured that this is normal.

**** the ****

This **** is so nice. It’s the nicest **** I’ve ever written with. **** is like smooth af bruv, Lamy makes some beautiful ****. She’s been using MY Lamy pens but I got different **** on the nibs. Like I got 5 Lamy pen **** and each one is a different color and **** with different nibs and **** sizes on them. but damn when she got that **** she was like daaayummmm this **** is the shitttt. And this **** is mine! This pink one **** is mine! She was happy as a pig in ****, we probably won’t buy from Goulet and **** anymore since we can pick them **** out in person at the local bookstore ****. The dude there, the guy who works that **** little area in the back is just so knowledgeable about fountain pens and ****. **** a really cool hobby to get into. Thanks Goulet, appreciate your quality ****.

LAMY review

Meh. Not what I expected. The feel of the pen is great. Love the base where I hold the pen, near the nib. It leaks or let's out a lot (yes, I lined up the little nibs) and just stops working often, needing cleaned often.

Fantastic!

I purchased the LAMY Safari fine nib (pink) as my first fountain pen and I'm in love! I will NEVER go back to using a basic ball point pen. It's very easy to use and the LAMY blue is a beautiful ink. It writes so smooth and this has totally changed my writing experience.

Beautiful!!

The pen and ink flow together without any skipping or dragging. This is the best pen I have ever used!

Fantastic

Naturally being newer this pen came highly recommended to me. Since I started with Pilot I was hesitant to switch brands, but I am loving this one! It is very user-friendly, writes nice, and handles well. It feels like it holds a good amount of ink, and has been great for daily use.

A perfectly delivered product that's working like a charm! Cutely packaged with a sticker that featured artwork by a younger member of the Goulet family.

Granddaughter's first fountain pen

My oldest granddaughter lives 5 states away...she loves corresponding with her Grandpa. I bought her the Pink LAMY Safari and Pink Lamy notebook. Along with a selection of inks; glittering, sheening, etc. Topped off with a Herbin seal and waxes. Now she writes in style!

The grip...

Smart shoppers should make sure to hold a LAMY in person before buying one to make sure that they work well with that blasted triangular grip. I want to love this pen, but currently I cannot.

Awesome pen. Ink flow is super smooth. Pen is super cute and stylish.

Lamy Safari Fountain Pen

I have completely converted from Sharpie pens to my Lamy for all my Urban Sketching. I can get more detailed with just a turn of my hand using a medium nib. It holds enough ink for a full day of sketching. Highly recommend and it is very reasonably priced

Good colors, not a good pen

In the 4-5 Lamy pens I have used since getting into fountain pens, it is underwhelming every time. The reputation and following is intriguing, but did not deliver for me. Specifically the Safaris, the colors are awesome and there are so many to choose from, but every time I order one of these, I hold my breath on whether the nib will write well or not. In the end, the Safari is not often reached for. The design is cool and eye-catching, but demonstrators are definitely my favorite (like the TWSBIs etc)

I absolutely love using my Lamy pen. Smooth writing and I like the textured grip.

Lamy

I like the lamy just know if you get the fine point it is more like a medium to me. I will be getting the extra fine nib to replace mine. It writes well no hard stops or starts and is light weight. This pen to me is a wet writer so be prepared for that as well. This pens triangular grip section has helped me improve the way I hold my pen. Making my writing experiences better and more enjoyable.

All about the Pink

This is my first fountain pen. I bought it with a medium nib. I'm looking forward to trying the broad and stub nibs. I have been spending a lot of time scribbling and practiceing with this pen. I'm very happy with the improvement in my technique. My only disappointment in this Lamy Safari, my first pen, is the pink color (quite muted). As someone who will buy a pink pen before all others (it's all about the pink) I was visioning a brighter pink. But I'm enjoying writing with this Lamy Safari very much

Great pen

I swapped out the nib for a 1.1 stub that I bought elsewhere and inked it with Pilot Iroskizuku Momiji. It's great. I wish Goulet sold the 1.1 stub with all their Lamy's.

Great Pen, great value

I love writing with Fountain pens, and this one has a great grip to hold the pen just right. The ink dries super fast so there is no smudging.

This is my favorite pen and fourth Lamy. I love the way it feels in my hand, how it glides across the paper and the smooth release of ink.

Never Again

First, I realize this is an inexpensive fountain pen, and after using it, compared to my others - it is awful. I only bought it to use with the LAMY pink ink cartridges I'd purchased before, not realizing I couldn't use them in my other pens, to write to my 6 year old granddaughter because pink is her color. I may continue to use this pen until the cartridges are gone, but then it's going in the trash. Very, very disappointed.

Wonderful !!!

I enjoy using this pen and the inks I purchased very much.. I am new to the world of fountain pens ( well not technically new, but it's been decades since I've used one ..

Good fountain pen for the price

I am so happy that I tried this LAMY Safari fountain pen! It doesn't leak, for which I am grateful, and it is a comfortable pen to use. It was a good buy, and I intend to buy a better one in the future.

Great weight! Doesn't skip, very smooth!!

I now own two of these in the pink. My chic sparrow Mr. Darcy color is sweet pea, so had to have a pink pen. The pen really does write so nicely. I have tried a few other brands.. Some leaked, some scratched, some were too heavy. This pen was just right for me. The blue ink is nice, too!!

Great beginner pen

My wife uses this pen for journalling and loves it. She says that the triangular section really helped her adjust her writing style after decades of using ball points and rollerballs. This is the pen that really hooked her on fountain pens.

Nice pink pen

I got it for my girl friend along with some samples of scented ink. She loves it

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I fill this LAMY fountain pen with ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

This fountain pen can fill with proprietary LAMY ink cartridges, or from a LAMY converter.

A cartridge is small, disposable, sealed plastic reservoir that holds fountain pen ink. These come pre-filled with ink, and typically you just push to insert them into place and you'll be ready to write!

This pen uses proprietary LAMY ink cartridges, which are available in a range of colors.

As for converters, LAMY does make two different converters - the red Z28, and the black Z27. All of their fountain pens (except the 2000) can accept the black Z27; typically this converter is included with the higher-end LAMY pens like the aion, cp1, scala, and studio. The red Z28 has additional knobs for a more secure installation that is compatible (and sold separately) on the AL-star, joy, and safari.

We've got a great video demonstrating both filling methods here:

How do I clean a fountain pen? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It depends on the filling mechanism, but it mostly comes down to flushing it out with water, and sometimes a little bit of Pen Flush if the ink is really stuck. 

It's a bit easier to show than to tell, so we've put together a few quick videos showing you the process:

We recommend a good cleaning every 2 weeks, and any time you change ink colors. Water will usually do the trick, but we recommend you use our Goulet Pen Flush if the ink has been left in the pen for a while and could have dried up, or when you’re switching ink colors.

What's your return policy? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

We accept returns for up to 30 days from purchase. You can read all our Return Policies here.
