I have heard of people doing this without any problems. Does anyone have experience using their Lamy 2K with BSB?

Shouldn't be a problem where clogging is concerned. But that ink window will be stained for sure. For me, that wouldn't be a problem since the ink window is pretty useless anyway, but that's the only drawback I could think of.

Best,

Thats a good point, but not a problem since I find the ink window useless.

My Lamy will be the next pen I try BSB in. I just got the bottle and so far have only tried it in a Translucent Blue Pelikan 200 (Blue Puddle) with a Binder ItailFine nib. Nice!

I am planning on using it in my 2000, i just want to be sure that no one has had problems with the combination

BSB clogged a Pelikan I have.
I'm not putting BSB in any other pens I own.

And I mostly use Noodlers inks, so I am not Noodlers bashing!

I've been quite happy with BSB in my Lamy 2000. My ink window has even remained clear and unstained.
