Apparently it only uses blue ink though. Sheesh, life is tough.

I'll bet own "Ms. Amber" could convince it to use something other than BLUE ink.............I'm a willin' to bet!

Unfortunately there is no information about nib size

[grainweevil]

Under "pen details" it does. To my shock and surprise, it's... medium.

 

Cheers, Al

What makes you folk think it is blue ink only? Comes with a blue cartridge provided.... replace with any colour you like...

 

 

Or did I miss the pun?

If you really want, you can buy extra/replacement nibs from any good dealer.

 

The Lamy Z50 gold nibs run in EF, F, M and B and do about 70 Euro here in the Netherlands.

You could use these even on your Safari.

 

AFAIK Lamy uses the same type of nib on all their modern pens except the 2000

Sorry D.ick if my sense of humour confused you - I just think it's funny that WH Smith sells fountain pens, as if they are ballpoints, specifying the ink colour! You bet I would fire it up with ... Herbin Stormy Grey, perhaps? :-)
