What Lamy Are You Using Today?

The Accent also has a twist cap.

 

The Persona too.

+1

 

The Persona is the older brother of the Imporium and I prefer it's recessed clip.

Initially, the Persona came with a 18K nib IIRC.

[dapprman]

Thought the earlier one had the 14k nib and the later one, with the roll stop, had the 18k nib ? - I'm looking to pick a black and gold one up to compliment my Imporium, but only for the right price.

 

On what am I using, now I've got my Imporium back from the pen club friend and fellow blogger I leant it to, my 2k is back in the drawer and the Imporium in my folder. I suspect I'm in the minority much preferring the Imporium over the 2k.

You might be right, it could be the cheaper (non-chiseled) barrel came with the 14K.

I too like the heft and prefer the 2K SS over the makrolon.

Since you ask: a Profil 81, with an extravagantly smooth and generous medium nib, Pelikan 4001 brilliant black.

Today's pen is my 2006 SE French Bue/Red Clip Safari inked up with Diamine Blue Velvet.

Not a 2000 fan myself, and I like my Imporium.

... and I like my Imporium.

 

 

OTOH, are you not a fan of the L2K in general or just the makrolon version?

I am not a fan of the one Lamy2000 which I bought years ago, which happened to be a Macrolon version. So that is a sample of 1.

I have three inked up at present...a lamy 2000 in medium (my workhorse), a lamy al-star in broad and a lamy safari that I put a bicolour gold OM nib just for the sake of it.

 

Love all of them but the 2000 is just sublime.

 

All with Noodler's registrar ink because of my job.

I have my Lamy Safari in Petrol, fine nib, with a Lamy Blue cartridge in it. Deciding whether I'll put Diamine Blue-Black or Noodler's Heart of Darkness in once I finish the cartridge. Or maybe get something else fun.

 

I've been thinking about Lamy Turquoise as a "blue enough to be accepted in law, but different enough to be different" ink choice but haven't decided yet.

Today it's a Lamy 2000, fine nib, loaded with Noodler's black.

Logo fine point.

Lamy 2000 steel version, broad nib. Bought from Bureau Direct in their clearance sale - sadly, just before their announcement that they were ceasing to trade.

I really like this pen, but it's a bit on the heavy side for me. I love the Makralon Lamy 2000 and that's my go-to, but at some point in the last 3 weeks it's disappeared. I'm really hoping it's just misplaced at home, but I have a horrible feeling I left it at the studio I rent and it's vanished from there.

Fingers crossed for me, folks!

Really hope you manage to find it! I would be devastated.
