lamy safari ballpoint review

Pens and Junk

A blog about pens… and other junk, review: lamy safari, ballpoint, medium point.

After my recent disappointment with the Lamy Tipo , I was a little reluctant to purchase another Lamy product so quickly. However, I’ve had good experiences with Lamy in the past, and I generally like the creativity in the company’s designs. So, after reading good things about the Lamy Safari Ballpoint, I decided to give it a shot – and I’m glad I did.

In all honesty, the Safari ballpoint seems like an odd choice for anyone who already owns the Safari in the much more popular fountain pen format , but it’s surprising how different the two designs actually are from each other when you have them side-by-side. Of course, both versions have the iconic U-shaped clip, and the indented grip sections are very similar. But everything else is quite different.

The ballpoint version has a rounded barrel, as opposed to the flattened-sides of the fountain pen version, and it’s also retractable. So the ballpoint version completely lacks a cap, which has been replaced by a knock that resembles an accordion. And, since the ballpoint refill is an enclosed metal tube , the ballpoint Safari has no need for an ink window.

It’s a unique design that, like it’s fountain pen counterpart, is produced in a bunch of colors. Mine is a mint green that was part of a limited edition run, but in person it is very reminiscent of Tiffany blue (it will be confiscated by my wife shortly after I finish this review). But red, black, and blue versions seem to be widely available, and new colors are frequently released.

I do have a couple of minor complaints that are still worth mentioning. First, the knock has a somewhat squeaky/rusty sound to it. I’d almost like to open it up to add some WD-40. And the (Lamy M16) refill, though it is relatively smooth and dark for a ballpoint, seems to skip in and out on occasion. So you might need a piece of scratch paper handy to get the ink flow started now and then.

Otherwise, this is a really nice pen, and Lamy did a lot of work to make it feel different from its fountain pen counterpart. It’s light weight, comfortable to hold, and it feels like a high quality product. So if you’re a in the market for a nice, colorful ballpoint, you won’t go wrong with the Safari.

Lamy Safari Test & Review

Lamy Safari Test & review- To go directly to the desired topic, simply click on the appropriate link:

2. Scope of Delivery and Packaging

The Lamy Safari ballpoint pen comes in a plain box and with a Lamy M16 refill.

3. Design und Workmanship of the Lamy Safari

The Lamy Safari is available in several colors. The blue I chose is bold and bright. The pen is mostly made of sturdy ABS plastic.

The pen contained slight plastic residues from processing on the grip surface. These quickly rubbed off when I started using the pen, so this is hardly worth mentioning, but the pen could still have been deburred after production.

What bothers me personally, however, are the somewhat unclean cast seams that run lengthwise across the pen. These probably stem from the fact that the pen is cast in two halves and these must be joined together afterwards. Unfortunately, this connection is not nearly perfect. You can only slightly see it in the photos, but can clearly feel it when you run your fingers over the area.

The clip at the top of the pen is made of chrome-plated metal and seems very stable. The click mechanism is under an accordion-like cover made of rubber. The resistance of the click mechanism feels like good quality and is relatively strong, but the refill still clicks out easily.

Also at the top of the pen is the classic Lamy lettering. The grip surface has recesses that support the correct grip of the pen.

I like the simple design with small details.

4. Handling of the Lamy Safari

The Lamy Safari is easy to grip thanks to the slightly ergonomic molds. At 13.5 g, the ballpoint pen also feels good in the hand and high-quality. The recesses indicate how far up the pen is supposed to be held. For the Lamy Safari , this is almost 0.8 in. This means that the movement of the pen must come more from the arm rather than from the fingers, which can feel strange at first, but ultimately leads to a better writing technique.

5. Writing with the Lamy Safari

The tip of the Lamy M16 refill glides smoothly over the paper and the molds in the grip surface support a correct pen grip.

So with the Lamy Safari you can write quite a few pages without getting any cramps in your hand. For long texts, e.g. exams, I would still recommend another pen, e.g. the Uniball Signo 207 premier , because the grip surface of the Lamy Safari is made of hard plastic and therefore does not give way when you grip the pen more firmly during fast or hectic writing. The ergonomics of the Lamy pen is therefore not bad, but it still could be better.

6. Conlusion on the

The Lamy Safari ballpoint pen is a solid pen. Unfortunately, it is not particularly well made. For the price and because it is made by the brand Lamy, I would have expected more. On the “pro-buy” side, it can be stated that the pen is made of hard ABS plastic and has a stable clip, so I would predict a long durability of the pen, if it were not for the accordion-like rubber cover of the click mechanism. This is because experience shows that such a material becomes porous over time, especially due to sunlight, etc. However, the ABS plastic of the pen is relatively scratch-resistant. The M16 refill writes well and the pen also has a slightly ergonomic shape.

Personally, I wouldn’t buy the Lamy Safari ballpoint pen again because the overall package just isn’t right for me, despite the nice design. If you’re looking for a nice pen in a similar price range, I can recommend the pens made by Faber Castell, check out the review here . If you’re looking for a ballpoint pen for under $ 5 with a very good finish and good ergonomics, check out the Schneider Haptify here .

But if you really like the design of the Lamy Safari you can buy it here .

Lamy Safari Review

By FPSymphony February 2, 2017 in Fountain Pen Reviews

Recommended Posts

Like many in the fountain pen hobby, the Lamy Safari was one of the first fountain pens I've ever acquired. From my perspective, the Lamy Safari is one of the best fountain pens for beginners, and I would even go so far as to say it's one of the best fountain pens of all time.

The finish on the Lamy Safari is very durable, and the pen has a premium feel to it. This is the matte charcoal version, which has a sandblasted finish that is very resistant to scratches. The nib has gained some staining, which is exacerbated by nib creep, but can be avoided by using "safe" inks, such as Lamy. The pen also comes in a variety of finish options, with a wide, appealing color spectrum, with limited edition models released every so often.

Uncapping the pen can be accomplished by lightly pulling the cap off, which is done so with a satisfying snap. Doing so will reveal one of the more polarizing aspects of the Lamy Safari's design; the ubiquitous triangular grip. It doesn't bother me personally, and I find it to be rather comfortable, if not a little thin. However, many people may find contention with the grip shape, particularly if they do not employ a standard "tripod grip".

Below is a size comparison between the Faber-Castell Loom, the Pilot Metropolitan, and the Lamy Safari

Capped, the pens are relatively close in size, however the Lamy does have a rather large clip which can be an issue for pen pouches that are particularly tight. Unposted, the Lamy is the lightest of the group, which can be an advantage for long writing sessions. The ergonomics are also notably more comfortable for my hand than the Pilot Metropolitan. When Posted, the Lamy does become very long, and ever so slightly back heavy, but due to the light weight of the pen, it's not really and issue, and I find myself posting the pen often.

The most important part of any pen is how it writes, and thankfully the Lamy Safari writes VERY well.

This pen writes amazingly well. What's most impressive is that after a period of five minutes left uncapped, the pen would not hard start, even with a dry ink.

The Lamy Safari is one amazing pen for beginners and those invested into the hobby. The durability of the pen and the amazing nib make a perfect pen for everyday carry. The Lamy Safari also sells for around $30 at most retailers, and for that price it makes this pen an amazing deal. There are pens that while may look really extravagant, but many of them do not perform as well as this Lamy, particularly when leaving the pen uncapped, and many of them cost a lot more than this pen.

Nicely done. I appreciate the photo comparison and writing sample!

Welcome aboard.

My latest ebook.    And not just for Halloween!  

My other pen is a Montblanc.

Enjoyed your review - thanks for taking the time.

Fool me once, shame on you.

Fool me twice; damn

There goes that fox again.

Great review. I also think the Safari is one of the best fountain pens of all time. I have three Safaris, and they are all inked and get as much use as the other, much more expensive pens in my collection.

The Charcoal/Umbra (aka "Stealth") Safari is well liked!

The Dark Lilac, and the upcoming "Petrol" Model will also have this textured finish!

I'm going to be the voice of dissent and disagree that Lamy Safari is one of the best fountain pens for beginners or at a great price point in general.

Cheaper pens than the Safari, namely the Jinhao's make for perfectly good beginner - low investment pens.

The somewhat more expensive TWSBI Eco is a more of a premium product in every way if someone wants a pen that not only writes well but looks great as well.

Compared to either of these pens I feel that the 15$ Safari is too expensive or too unremarkable a product.

Plus you have to buy the converter separately, which is overpriced (for what it is) as well.

You do have a fair point. The Twsbi Eco and Jinhao pens are pretty nice. I would also include the Platinum Preppy in this group.

However (I'm not claiming my experience represents everyone), I have only had Lamy pens that write well, and while I've never used any Jinhao pens, I have used some Twsbis, which while nice, were not perfectly adjusted out of the box, something imperative for a "beginner's pen". I also have a suspicion that quality control on Jinhao pens is not entirely consistent, as I have seen reports of some pens being wet, some pens being dry, etc.

I cannot atone to the question of value for everyone since that depends on the user, but the Lamy Safari is a quality pen that writes well, and I think it is worth the price. Certainly, there are cheaper alternatives, and if they're better pens for you, than by all means, love and cherish them.

Well said. Your original post/review is appreciated as well.

While a good pen for many people, I think the grip shape and that humongous clip is an issue for many, myself included. As to whether they are a better value than some other pens really depends on the individual as you stated so eloquently.

These Lamy FP remind me on an old Rotring "Core" RollerBall I had. While it wrote very well, the large size and odd shape and balance meant it ended up lost in some desk drawer a long time ago never to see light again (or at least not before a major clean out of long forgotten stuff in the office).

The Lamy Safari was the first fountain pen I ever bought. At the time, I was so impressed at how much ink it put down.

However, I do find that the Safaris tend to be a bit too broad for my tastes and they're a bit inconsistent at times. I've had amazing Safari Fine Nibs and so-so Fine nibs.

Great review.

Sometimes when I am using my Safari or Vista, I seriously wonder why I would ever spend more money for a FP. They really are splendid -- cheap and functional.

Glad you're enjoying one of your new pen! Good review. Lamy inks tend to be a bit dry. There are other inks that are wetter or more lubed and will give the nib a different feel on the page. Flush the pen well if you use a different ink. I'm concerned that you're pressing the nib. Don't get in that habit. Especially if you're going to be trying with other people's pens. A bit of pressure on a nib that's intended to flex can add line variation. Don't overdo it. A habit of pressing every nib can leave a trail on damage. A newbie destroyed a springy nib (bent it permanently) on one of my pens because she wanted to see the pen write darker. Another newbie separated the tines on a stiff-nibbed Preppy looking for line variation. Don't be someone who does that. A good pen/ink combo will be okay for a moment while you're thinking of the right word. But for a few moments, at least slip the nib back into the cap. Surprisingly, piston fillers like the Twisbi Eco hold about the same amount of ink as a cartridge. It looks like more because the ink is filing the width of the barrel. And there are some double reservoir Viscontis that hold more. Converters hold about half as much. There's no indication from ink makers that cartridges are not meant to be reused. Cartridges are designed to hold ink for an extended period of time, whether that's closed with the original ink or whether refilled with ink.

Thanks for the concern, but I actually don't write with a heavy hand at all. I was writing very slowly because I was a bit nervous of people seeing my handwriting. I did put some pressure on the word "pressure", but that's only for the review. Don't worry, I've used many pens (including full flex pens) and have never sprung a nib. I'm sorry that you've had other people spring your pens!

Also, to clarify, I don't think it's wise to keep a pen uncapped for five minutes. I was just surprised that the pen would still write after being uncapped for five minutes, considering some pens won't.

A Twsbi Eco (completely full) has a capacity of 1.7 ml versus a full T10 cartridge (which is bigger than a standard international) which has capacity of somewhere around 1.2 ml.

My concern was your pressing the nib for the word 'pressure.' From posts and videos, some newbies get the idea that pressing a nib is normal use.

It's up to you whether you press a nib in your reviews. A standard international cartridge refills with 1.5ml, which is close to the volume of the Twsbi eco and many other piston fillers.

Nice review. The SafarI is an excellent pen in its price category and great choice for beginners. I think it will outlast most other pens in its price range by decades. However the TWSBI ECO is potentially its nemesis for the crown of best in its category. The ECO is more refined and with its built in piston filler a better value in my opinion. It has yet to prove itself for durabilty. The Safari may have the edge for durability. Writing quality Id say is on par. I find my ECO 1.1 nib is wetter than my Safari 1.1. For the price its hard to beat these two.

I like the Lamy Safary. It's fun with many colors, nice range of nibs and the ergonomics is fine for me. The only thing is that the nibs and feed assembly quality is somewhat varied resulting in skipping for my use (I have nibs ranging from 1.1 to EF and several M on varied pen colors). I must say I put little pressure on my pens which makes things worse.

All in all good value but I am not sure the best beginners pen.

Nice review, thanks!

I absolutely love my Safaris. As cheap pens go they are pretty reliable. I had an orange one that lasted 7 years before it started leaking at the base of the nib. My Next Safari, the dark Lilac has worked great since I received it (a year ago? anyhow when the lilac first came out). Until two weeks ago when it developed the same leak (converter perfectly tight, nib as well) as the previous pen. I've had no leaking with the Al-stars (green, silver, and orange copper) but the cap stopped snapping on and off on the silver one after 10 years. I should probably send the broken pens to the Lamy Repair center.

I do see a difference between an expensive brand like Pelikan and cheaper brands like Lamy. I have never had a single problem with my amber 250 which I bought in 2005 and used daily for 10 years.

I love Lamys but don't expect them to last more than a couple years. That said I use them every day for work and love the Dark lilac (still a little sad about the leak).

P.s. Thanks for the review. I may now have to get the new petrol!

Lamy Safari Fountain Pen Review: All-Around Favorite for Any Writer 

If you’re a budding pen enthusiast, you’ve probably heard of the Lamy Safari fountain pen. It was one of the first fountain pens I ever bought — and helped grow my love of pens.

This iconic writing instrument has been a popular choice for both beginners and seasoned pen lovers for decades, known for its sleek design with cool color options and high-quality nibs.

In this review, I’ll delve into the history of the Lamy Safari , its design and aesthetics, nib options and writing experience, as well as its filling mechanisms and ink capacity, and share some of my thoughts as to why it’s such a great pen.

History of the Lamy Safari Fountain Pen

The Lamy Safari has been available since the early 1980s when it was first introduced in Germany. It was designed by Wolfgang Fabian, with a focus on creating an affordable and reliable pen that was suitable for use by both children and adults.

Origins and Design Philosophy

Fabian’s design philosophy is reflected in the pen’s name, Safari, which suggests durability and reliability in harsh environments. The pen’s aesthetic is also inspired by Fabian’s desire to create a writing instrument that was simple, practical, and modern, with a focus on functionality over style.

The Safari fountain pen was designed to be a workhorse pen that could be used in a variety of settings, from the classroom to the boardroom. Its lightweight design and comfortable grip make it easy to use for extended periods of time, while its sturdy construction ensures that it can withstand the wear and tear of everyday use. If you’re looking for a daily writer, this is a great option.

One of the key features of the Lamy Safari fountain pen is its interchangeable nibs. The pen comes with a steel nib as standard, but users can easily swap it out for a different size or material depending on their writing needs — even offering left-handed nibs for writers . This versatility has made the Lamy Safari a favorite, who appreciate the ability to customize their writing experience without having to buy a new pen every time.

I recently ordered a new set of nibs for my Safari. I had a medium and wanted to try a fine, so as much as I’d love a collection of Safari’s, it was a lot cheaper to get a new nib.

Evolution of the Lamy Safari Series

Over the years, the Lamy Safari fountain pen has evolved in various ways. New materials and color options have been introduced, as well as different nib sizes and types . Today, the Lamy Safari is still going strong, with a loyal fan base that appreciates its quality and affordability.

In recent years, Lamy has expanded the Safari series to include other types of pens, such as rollerballs and ballpoints. These pens retain the same design aesthetic and functional features as the fountain pen, making them a popular choice for those who prefer a different writing style.

The Safari is one of the best beginner fountain pens for those who are just starting out with fountain pens or who want a reliable workhorse pen for everyday use. Its combination of quality, versatility, and affordability has made it a classic in the world of fountain pens.

Here is a comparison of the Safari and some of its most popular competitors:

Please note that prices may vary based on the retailer and location. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, it’s best to check with specific retailers or manufacturers.

Design and Aesthetics

The Lamy Safari fountain pen is unmistakable in its design, with its sleek lines. It is available in a variety of materials and colors, ranging from bright and bold to more subdued shades.

But the Lamy Safari is not just a pretty pen. It is also designed for functionality and ease of use. Whether you’re a seasoned writer or a beginner, this pen is a great choice for anyone looking for a reliable writing tool.

Material and Color Options

The pen’s body is typically made of lightweight, durable resin, but there are also models available in aluminum and stainless steel. The resin models are particularly popular due to their affordability and wide range of color options. From classic blacks and whites to vibrant purples and blues, there is a color for every taste.

I love the bright yellow, so when I saw it, I had to grab it.

The aluminum and stainless steel models, on the other hand, offer a more premium feel and are perfect for those who want a pen that feels substantial in their hand.

Clip and Cap Design

The pen’s clip and cap are also notable design features. The clip is not just for show — it is sturdy and reliable, allowing you to easily clip the pen to your pocket or notebook without fear of it falling off. The cap is designed to prevent ink from drying out and allows for easy opening and closing, so you can quickly jot down your thoughts without any fuss.

But the cap also serves another purpose. It is designed to be posted on the back of the pen while you write, giving the pen a longer and more balanced feel in your hand. This is particularly useful for those who prefer a heavier pen or like to write for extended periods of time.

Ergonomics and Grip

The Lamy Safari fountain pen is designed with ergonomics in mind, providing a comfortable grip for extended writing sessions. The triangular grip ensures that your fingers are properly spaced and allows for a more natural and relaxed grip. This is especially important for those who suffer from hand fatigue or cramping when writing for long periods of time.

I’ve spent a lot of time journaling with my Lamy Safari and haven’t gotten some of the hand cramps I have with other pens.

The grip is also made of a non-slip material, which ensures that the pen won’t slip out of your hand, even if your palms get sweaty. This feature is particularly useful for those who live in hot or humid climates or for those who tend to get nervous when writing in important situations.

Overall, the Lamy Safari fountain pen is a great choice for anyone who values both form and function. Its sleek design, range of colors and materials, and comfortable grip make it a joy to use, whether you’re writing a novel or just jotting down a quick note.

Nib Options and Writing Experience

The Lamy Safari fountain pen is a popular choice among fountain pen enthusiasts for its variety of nib options and smooth writing experience. Whether you’re a seasoned writer or just starting out, the Lamy Safari has a nib option that will suit your needs.

One of the standout features of the Lamy Safari fountain pen is its variety of nib options. There are several different sizes and types of nibs available, ranging from fine to broad and even flexible. The nibs are made of high-quality stainless steel and are available in a range of sizes. Whether you need a fine nib for detailed work or a broad nib for bolder strokes, there is a nib option for you.

Nib Materials and Sizes

The Lamy Safari fountain pen’s nibs are made of high-quality stainless steel, which ensures durability and longevity. The nibs are available in a range of sizes, from extra fine to broad, allowing you to choose the perfect size for your writing needs. The nibs are also designed to be easily replaceable, so you can switch them out if you prefer a different size or type.

If you’re a leftie, you’re in luck. Lamy offers a left-handed Safari nib model, so you can enjoy writing too.

Lamy sells Safari pens that come with the leftie nib. So right out of the box, you're good to go.

Ink Flow and Smoothness

The Safari is known for its smooth writing experience, with consistent ink flow and minimal skipping. It’s also compatible with a variety of popular ink brands . The pen’s nibs are designed to provide a consistent flow of ink , ensuring that your writing is always smooth and effortless. The ink flow is also adjustable, so you can customize it to your liking. The pen’s ergonomic design ensures a comfortable grip, even during long writing sessions.

Writing Samples and Comparisons

If you’re considering purchasing a Lamy Safari, it’s important to try it out for yourself. However, there are numerous online reviews and writing samples available, allowing you to get a sense of its capabilities before making a purchase. You can compare the Safari to other fountain pens in its price range to see how it stacks up in terms of writing experience, design, and value.

Here are a few tests from some of the notebooks I own with varying paper weights . If you want to see the best notebooks for fountain pens, check out this post .

Samples on a Rhodia 90 GSM notebook.

Samples on a Clairefontaine 90 GSM notebook.

Samples on a Leuchttrum1917 80GSM notebook.

With these, there is some ghosting and a touch of bleedthrough, depending on the paper. I’m also using a dark blue ink which is big heavier.

Ghosting doesn’t bother me. But if it’s something that annoys you, then you may want to go for a notebook with a heavier GSM.

This doesn’t work well on standard paper like Field Notes.

There’s a lot of feathering and heavy ghosting on the other side.

Filling Mechanisms and Ink Capacity

The Lamy Safari fountain pen is a versatile writing instrument that offers a range of filling mechanisms to suit your needs. Whether you prefer the convenience of disposable ink cartridges or the elegance of a traditional piston filler, the Lamy Safari has got you covered.

I’ve used both converters and cartridges for my Lamy pens.

Cartridge/Converter System

The standard filling system for the Lamy Safari fountain pen is the cartridge/converter system. This is a popular option among fountain pen enthusiasts. It’s easy to clean and refill your pen with ink. With this system, you can choose between using disposable ink cartridges or using a converter to fill the pen from a bottle of ink.

One of the advantages of the cartridge/converter system is that it is very easy to use. Insert a new ink cartridge into the pen or attach the converter and dip the nib into a bottle of ink. It’s a great option for if you’re new to fountain pens or prefer a low-maintenance writing experience.

Piston Filler Option

For those who prefer a more traditional filling mechanism, the Lamy Safari fountain pen has a piston filler option. It allows you to fill your pen directly from an ink bottle. That lets you write a lot longer longer before needing to refill.

The piston filler system is a classic filling mechanism that has been used in fountain pens for decades. It works by using a piston to draw ink up from a bottle and into the pen’s reservoir. This provides a high ink capacity, which is ideal for those who write frequently or for long periods of time.

Ink Capacity Comparison

Depending on the filling mechanism you choose, the ink capacity of the Lamy Safari fountain pen will vary. The cartridge/converter system provides a moderate amount of ink. Each cartridge or converter fills the pen with about 1.5 to 2 milliliters of ink.

On the other hand, the piston filler option allows for a much greater capacity. With this system, you can fill the pen with up to 1.35 milliliters of ink. That’s more than double the amount provided by a single cartridge or converter.

Ultimately, the choice between the cartridge/converter system and the piston filler option comes down to personal preference. If you prefer a low-maintenance writing experience and don’t mind refilling your pen more frequently, the cartridge/converter system may be the best option for you. However, if you value a high ink capacity and enjoy the traditional elegance of a piston filler, the Lamy Safari fountain pen with a piston filler option may be the perfect choice.

Lamy Safari: Recommended

Beginners really can't go wrong with a Lamy Safari. I've spent a lot of time using mine as my daily writer. It's a great, solid pen.

The Lamy Safari fountain pen is a classic writing instrument that has stood the test of time. Its sleek design, high-quality nibs, and variety of filling mechanisms make it a favorite among fountain pen enthusiasts.

Whether you’re a seasoned fountain pen user or just starting out, the Lamy Safari is a reliable and affordable option. You’ll get a smooth and enjoyable writing experience with it.
