My new Lamy 2000 with fine nib- filled with Diamine Blue-Black.

 

Massdrop finally pulled through and delivered it yesterday after quite a lot of waiting.

Nice to see those Massdrop L2Ks are finally rolling in. I've seen a lot of grumbling about the length of time it has taken.

It took a while but it was well worth waiting for.

First generation 2000 with EF nib Lamy Blue ink.

I bought this pen,second hand, in June 2013. The seller described it as a good condition user pen. When I got it and tried it out I found that, yes it was generally in good condition and wrote very smoothly, but the nib was very bent and wrote more like a B than EF. I think the seller had sent it to the local blacksmith rather than a nib meister (or maybe let his dog chew it).

I have ordered a new EF nib and will see how it performs then.

 

Just fitted new EF nib (14k as against the 18k original). What a difference :)

Hello everybody

I am using today my new Lamy 2000 with an EF nib and black Lamy ink. The hype was true. It is just amazing how well this pen writes, how comfortable it is in the hand, how nice to touch is the makrolon material and how clever is the design of the piston and the nib. I am a new convert to Lamy.

My only two Lamy instruments at the moment, a charcoal Safari (EF nib) and matching .5mm mechanical pencil. Eying a Lamy 2000 as my first "serious" fountain pen purchase, sometime afte the holidays.

Dialogue 3 with medium nib and Dialogue 1 ballpoint.

How is that Dialog 1 to hold?

 

It looks stunning, so does the Dialog 2 rollerball.

 

But I am not a big user of RBs (dislike them) and BP.

 

I am still waiting for the Dialog 4 Mechanical Pencil... (if that will ever happen...)

To celebrate the creation of this long awaited Lamy forum, I propose to start the typical "What pen of this brand are you using today" thread, so popular in other forums.

 

This is my today's choice: Lamy ABC FP + pencil set. They are no longer made.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
