Fountain Pen Perverts: Question about 'Feel' between two Lamy F nibs
R. Emory Lundberg | Nov 20 2006
So here's the deal. I have a Lamy Safari and a Lamy Studio, both with a F nib. The Safari writes smoothly and beautifully. The Studio feels "sharp". Like it isn't getting enough ink. It also gets more ink on the top of the nib than the Safari. I don't know if something is wrong with it or what! They both have the same converters and both use Lamy washable blue ink. Any ideas? 2 Comments

well it just felt like it wasn't having enough flow. i took it to My Local Pen Guy who whipped out a monacle, stuck on a new nib and it seems perfect now. i also picked up some Blue-Grey ink to supplement my washable blue ink. still not gutsy enough to move to non-washable but i figure that day may be coming soon. thanks for the tips! » POSTED IN:
