I am new to the forum, but not new to Lamy. I am using my Lamy Brushed Stainless Studio loaded up with black Parker Quink. I love this pen, especially since it was my first "good" fountain pen. It always gets positive comments when I pull it out to write.

Morning everyone. Using my silver/black Lamy Al Star with a 1.1 nib. I love the fact that it is battered and scratched but still looks good

My favourite Lamy is a Burnt Orange Al-Star I bought off a member here, swapped the nib for a blackout F and it always stays inked. The ink of the week is going to be Noodler's Blue upon the Plains of Abraham (only took me 3 trips to Wonderpens to get my paws on it!)

What would be a nicer way to start a 2nd Monday in January than to receive this bad boy in the mail! It felt like Christmas revisited when my new Lamy 2000 arrived from my online ebay effort over the holidays.

 

Despite my rants over the years about how I disliked my experience with this pen which resulted in my getting rid of it, I wanted to give this bad hair cut another try (4 years later). Found a good deal on ebay for $120 USD, but with the exchange it still worked out to almost two C notes CAD. Ouch!

 

Well I inked it (smooth piston action) and when the nib touched paper, it did bring a smile. Such a lovely nib. Bliss! So I take back all the harsh things I said. Nice Tiguan. Niiice pen!!!

Today I'm using my Lamy 2000 Stainless, EF, inked with Iroshizuku Syo-Ro. Yesterday it was my 2000 Makrolon EF inked with Diamine Bilberry.

      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
