The Lamy Safari fountain pen in Shiny Black features a steel nib, and black plastic body and cap, accented by a chrome-plated clip with a unique design that makes the pen instantly recognizable. The Safari Shiny Black fountain pen has a contoured grip section that ensures that the pen is held correctly for the optimal writing experience. A proprietary Lamy cartridge is included, and the Lamy Z28 converter for use with bottled ink is available separately.
The Lamy Safari is a good fountain pen for beginners. It writes smoothly and it is not too expensive. It does have an oddly shaped grip section that is meant to help in holding the pen properly but can be uncomfortable for some people. It doesn't come with a converter so if you want to use bottled ink, you will need one of those. Also the feeds are meant to stay in the section so cleaning takes a little longer.
