  I chose it as my first introduction to pens of this type and I have been quite satisfied with my choice. I consider it ideal for someone who wants to start writing with a fountain pen.

  Personally, I preferred the fine nib, as it serves me better in my handwriting. The thin letters it produces and the fast drying of the ink are particularly practical, reducing the risk of smudging, which is common with the use of a medium nib and corresponding paper. Of course, these are personal preferences and may vary from person to person.

  As for the build quality, the sturdiness of the pen is not as satisfactory. It is quite lightweight, attributed to the fact that it is made of ABS plastic. Despite being resistant to drops, it does not offer a solid quality feel in the hand. However, its resistance to wear is a significant advantage.

  Additionally, the pen's clip works very well and keeps the pen securely closed without any issues.

  In summary, it is an excellent choice for someone who wants to start writing with a fountain pen. Personally, it has served me well and I believe it is more cost-effective to buy ink refills with a replacement, as it reduces the overall cost.

  Overall, I am satisfied with my choice and would recommend this particular pen to anyone interested.

  This review is about the line width: Medium

  Excellent pen, very convenient and comfortable to write with. I generally had issues with many pens because they were heavy or needed to be held in a certain straight position to write. However, this one is more comfortable than a pen. Whether you write straight or diagonally, the ink will flow smoothly. It is worth its money and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to start using a pen for writing.

  I have been using it since 2018 as my everyday pen. It has been through a lot, but its construction quality is very good, so it has no issues, neither the nib (Fine) nor the cartridge. I recommend it for a first introduction to the world of pens and for everyday use.

  This review is about the line width: Medium

  After many years, I started writing with a pen again, in order to try to write a bit slower and improve my handwriting.
  - Advantages: Lightweight, good ink flow, writing sensation, quality construction.
  - Disadvantages: You may not like that it is plastic (although of very good quality).
  - Other: My letters have not improved, only pharmacists can decipher them.

  EDIT 20-4-2023: I prefer the fine tip (F)

  For a beginner user, it is very good .... for an advanced user, it is better to go for another pen.

  This review is about the line width: Medium

  First pen. I tried the Medium nib but it releases too much ink for my taste, the size of the letters and my handwriting style. I was particularly satisfied with the change to the Extra Fine (EF) nib, which is precise and can be used on lightweight paper (< 75 g/m²) without bleeding like the medium one.

  Its color is a unique dark matte grey with a metallic black nib and clip.

  I had no issues with ink flow and especially the EF dries quickly.

  Ink: First of all, I used a converter (Lamy Red that fits with a special clip) to draw ink from a bottle, and while the company's black ink tends to gray in some areas, I bought Kaweco's pearl black, which is absolute black.

  As for the paper you write on, ideally you want good quality paper like Rhodia, Claire Fontaine, but the EF at least writes comfortably on cheap notebooks and sticky notes - not that the above-mentioned brands are expensive.

  Note: For left-handed people, Lamy produces nibs called LH

  This review is about the line width: Medium

  I got it as my first pen. I was worried if I could write with my left hand because let's be honest, they are not designed for us. First of all, I must say that a medium nib is necessary and not larger or smaller. If you practice writing a little slanted, it is a great choice. If you want to take it a step further, then change the ink to quick drying ink (you may need to get a piston converter) and better paper. The ideal is cotton paper, but of course, its price is excessively higher.

  This review is about the line width: Medium

  One of the best choices for those who are taking their first steps with a pen.
  Comfortable, extremely lightweight, glides smoothly on paper.
  I have had it for 3 years with daily use and I have no complaints.
  Of course, the choice of the nib also plays a role.
  Personally, I prefer the F, which is relatively thin and dries fairly quickly.

  Very good choice for a gift and for someone who is starting to write with a pen. It takes inks from the same company or with the purchase of a Lamy converter any ink of choice in a bottle, which is a more economical and environmentally friendly option.
