Best fountain pen for writers ✍️


​

Here’s my thoughts , ✍️

I’ve been looking for a good quality fountain pen, especially local Indian brand

Since other refills like gel pens don’t meet my needs as a heavy user, I highly recommend fountain pens for everyone.

If you’re new here, check my youtube channel here - www.youtube.com/@shashvinparthiban​

The thing is, with fountain pens is there’s a lot to consider – the ink, the paper, the nib size, and of course, the pen itself!

You don’t want to waste money on something that won’t last.

I initially considered a brand called Wality, specifically the (Kalaingar) pen, but I couldn’t find it anywhere online. So, I ended up with the Lamy, a brand you might already know.

Try Wality too.

You must check out this youtube channel called Inked happiness, he’s a pen reviewer - https://youtu.be/zuVZm3ADWtc?si=r1uAXWchTJmDbxaL​

Paper quality is so important. GSM, which stands for grams per square meter, is a key factor. Above 80 GSM is good, but I personally suggest using paper above 100 GSM.


What model I’m currently using

  • LAMY Safari
  • Nib - Medium ( smooth experience )
  • Ink - I prefer Parker

Here’s what I loved about it:

  • Coming with a syringe-type refilling tank
  • One time investment
  • Beginners will try this its easy-to-use cartridge/converter system
  • Ergonomic design, light weight and grip are positives
  • Customisation with readily available nib options for Pro writers.
  • Mostly nib design protects prevents accidental ink smudging.

Smooth Writing Experience - The steel nib delivers a smooth and consistent writing experience, even for those new to fountain pens. and you can buy nibs that are sold separately


Some things that don’t work for me:

  • Costly: Out of my budget range.
  • Not recommended for everyone: Only suitable for fountain pen users.
  • Ink price: Compared to Indian brands, Lamy ink is expensive. That’s why I choose a different brand.

Overall:

The Lamy Safari is a well-deserved classic.
