A great "throw in" pen May 10, 2013
Reviewer: Sam from Seattle, WA United States  
This pen isn't particularly fancy, but it competently fulfills its obligations. I have the EF nib, for drafting/technical drawing, and the line is quite fine (without much shading, if any), but the ink flows smoothly without skipping. It is comfortable in my hand (though I understand that this isn't the case with everyone; there is a shaped grip that may or may not work with how you hold it), if a little bit light. The Safari is quite sturdy, made of ABS plastic, so I have no qualms throwing it in a book bag, pocket, or console in the car--it's a perfect utility pen. It doesn't have the smoothest flow of the pens I use, it is not the prettiest, it doesn't have the highest capacity...all it is is a simple, sturdy pen that works reliably.

What was not mundane about the purchase was the Goulets--the whole order is packed immaculately (in what I've learned is a bit of a trademark) and the customer service and level of knowledge is terrific.

Great Pen May 1, 2013
Reviewer: Michael from Broomfield, CO United States  
Good solid pen for a great price.  Lamy's nib interchangeability is very convenient and the nibs are a good price.  Some of the colors are a little off-putting, but the matte black here is great for any use.

The grip may not be everyone's cup of tea, but as long as your grip is pretty standard, it can actually be fairly comfortable.

Lovely Lamy Safari April 26, 2013
Reviewer: Matt L. from Colorado Springs Colorado  
Lamy Safari Charcoal Gray fine steel nib.  Had I watched the videos (recommended if you're newbie like me) I would've known not to keep the starter blue and gone to my blacks.  Simple, light, comfortable posted or not. Tip is fine, but paper makes a difference. Quality paper (e.g. Rhodia) holds a fine line. Cheaper (e.g. printer paper) fattens up probably double. This seems more ink/paper not pen.  Ink window is subtle and useful. Will go from dark, to cut by the ink, to clear, but then you can still slosh the ink by the window to see the supply.  Bright backlight helps.
Great affordable pen that I enjoy having and using all the time for everything.

good deal April 19, 2013
Reviewer: Chris Yonker from Corpus Christi, TX United States  
I was very pleasantly surprised by this pen. I ordered assuming there must be something to its popularity, and that appears to be correct*. I have to mention I tried the pen for the first time w/ a 1.1mm italic, so that's part of what I'm enjoying, but even the standard nib is very smoothe. Very happy with this purchase.

*I DID buy an identical pen for my sister (a FP noob), and she had a terrible experience. Could be she didn't knwo what she was doing, but I've found FPs to have a short learning curve. Hers "wrote scratchy" even after verifying she was using it correctly.

Would definitely recommend at this price!
