 Writes very nicely. ..., August 22, 2011Writes very nicely. I save five star reviews for things which are unbelievably
great. This is just very good, and I'm not inclined to pay any more than this
for a fountain pen. I buy them to write with, not to display.
Writes very smoothly, and feels good in my hand. I got the extra-fine nib, and
absolutely cannot tell the difference between it and the fine nib on my Lamy
Safari in side by side writing. Not really important, as it's just about where
I want it for the kind of writing I do.
The fact that it seems a sturdier than the Safari justifies the extra money.
The Al-Star will see a lot of use.

I wish. I am very glad that I purchased this pen rather than something lighter,
since I prefer the feel of a slightly heavier pen. As far as the extra fine nib
goes, I do not find it too fine for my handwriting, it actually makes my
handwriting look much better ^.^ Now I cannot wait for my second fountain pen to
arrive.

This was my first Lamy fountain pen purchase, and I am extremely satisfied. It
looks great, it writes very well, and with a converter, I am able to use any
bottled ink I wish. Mine is currently filled with J. Herbin's Eclat de Saphir
and it flows beautifully. Now, I find myself taking every opportunity to write
things down, just so I can use my fountain pens. Thanks, JetPens!

This is actually a review for the green al-star pen. It's the best pen I have
ever owned! I'vd several cheap 'fountain' pens, and have been disappointed. This
pen Amazed me! Writes so smooth from the start! Its quality is obvious from
every aspect, and I think if you ever wanted to try a fountain pen this is it!
Use it for everything from writing to sketching and love the flow & feel.

Writes beautifully and..., October 19, 2008
Writes beautifully and smoothly. It's slightly heavier than the Safari, which
makes this just about perfect. The graphite coloring makes it feel professional,
and it's a very solid construction.
The nib tends to be a tad messy using the converter cartridge, but still writes
nice and smoothly.
