Review: Revised: Why did I wait so long? (I didn't the second time!) - ** UPDATE: July 8, 2014 This should illustrate the value and precision of the LAMY 2000 fountain pen. It is a mature (Legacy) product with a classic style and the best value for an instrument under $300.00. Once you are hooked, there is no turning back! You will not regret making this investment (I did it twice). My LAMY 2000 rolled off my desk as I was getting my inkbottle out to refill it. I broke the NIB with my negligence at the Achilles! I cannot describe the internal emotional feeling when your chosen "go to" pen warrants repair. Unfortunately, I could not find a replacement NIB for the pen but LAMY stands behind their product and you must send it in for repairs. There is an approximately 3 week's turnaround time and approximately $60 + shipping & handling charge (fair price). I reverted to a LAMY Studio Stainless Steel fountain pen that I own. It was fine but it was not my LAMY 2000. In approximately 1 hour after using the Studio, I signed in on desertcart and ordered another LAMY 2000 XF Fountain Pen (delivery tomorrow). As for my damaged LAMY, it is a wonderful calligraphy pen now - LOL. ***************************************** I own several LAMY fountain pens the Safari, Studio, and the Dialog 3 respectively, but seemed to avoid the 2000 for some unknown reason. I am a graduate student pursuing a dual Master's and needed a motivation tool (symbol). I decided to part with $130 and invest in the LAMY 2000. It arrived...(S***) - I could have bought three of these for the price I paid for the LAMY Dialog 3! The LAMY 2000 is a fantastic utilitarian instrument (daily use). It is made of a combination of fiberglass and brushed stainless steel known as Makrolon (Lamy, 2014). It is not metal like the Studio or Dialog 3 but sturdy and not plastic feeling like the Safari (plastic). The 2000 is functional where the Dialog 3 is pretty and only good for signatures and the Studio is great as well and similarly priced in price. The real value is how the 2000 holds ink and why everyone says it lasts a week or longer. "Polycarbonates (PC), known by the trademarked names Lexan, Makrolon, Makroclear, arcoPlus® and others, are a particular group of thermoplastic polymers. They are easily worked, molded, and thermoformed. Because of these properties, polycarbonates find many applications. Polycarbonates do not have a unique resin identification code and are identified as Other, 7. Items made from polycarbonate can contain the precursor monomer bisphenol A (BPA)." Source: Polycarbonate - [...] I had bought 2 extra LAMY converters with this purchase (would need to replace them in my other pens anyway). I opened the 2000 and looked to see where to place the converter. What? It did not come with an ink converter. Okay, that is why I ordered 2 converters. Wait, converter does not fit. Where is the manual (for a pen no less)? To my amazement, the whole body of the pen is the ink reservoir and does not require a converter! You twist the butt end of the pen to activate the piston to draw ink into the body, explaining how it lasts a week or more! I could not see the line where the twist mechanism is (quality/craftsmanship) that required me to read the manual. A classic design and legacy product - I clearly understand the reason it is still around. References Lamy, U. S. A. (2014, July 8, 2014).

Review: A legend - I have to admit that I am a long time fan of fountain pens, but only in the recent 5 years become a collector. I don't have a huge collection, or a very expensive one, but they are pens that I found during travel that I really liked. Even the ones I don't use, get cleaned and stored away. I currently have three or four fountain pens I used at any given time. One is a 1.1mm stub, this works much like a calligraphy pen. Then I have a fine tip pen, and the Lamy 2000. First let me say that I read somewhere that the Lamy 2000 was created in the 1970's and has yet to have any major alterations to the design. I don't know if that is true, but what I can say is that this pen is the most solid built pen that I have ever owned. I have some parker, Ravel, Pelican, Noodler's, Shaeffer, and El Forest fountain pens. The Lamy 2000 beats them all. The weight of the pen is nice. It does not feel empty, or hollow, it has some weight to it. Some may think it is too heavy, but I have always believed it was perfect. The writing with this pen is smooth and perfect. There is no skipping, or flow issues with the pen. Cleaning the pen is fairly simple. Not as simple as a pen that can be deconstructed, but this pen can be cleaned using the piston. It is a piston filled pen. If you do not know what that is, it is basically a piston with a gasket on it, that moves up through the pen and sucks the ink into the pen. To fill the pen, the user dips the tip of the pen into the ink and turns the piston handle on the back of the pen. This is my go-to pen. If I could I would buy another one just so that I can have two ink colors with me. I would highly recommend this pen to anyone else. I cannot praise this pen enough, I really and truly love this pen. UPDATE!!! Hard to believe it has been almost 5 years since I bought this pen. This is still my number 1 pen. It is my favorite fountain pen. I have a bigger collection of pens now, but this is still the best pen I own. I cannot say enough great things about this pen. It is worth every penny.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I would be grateful for info about the smoothness of the ef nib. that's my number 1 concern. is it scratchy.**
A: I would say the Lamy 2000 EF nib is very smooth. It does tend to feel a bit scratchy when you get on the roll onto the edges of the nib when writing. In comparison to my other favorite pen the Namiki Falcon EF which is super flexible and requires a bit of pressure. The Lamy 2000 requires little to no pressure the ink flows incredibly well but the nib has very little flex. So my point is that the Lamy 2000 EF will require a slight change in your writing style depending on what you are used to writing with. The Lamy 2000 EF is like butter on good paper like Rhodia and Clairefontaine.

**Q: Is this pen broader or finer than a fine nibbed safari?**
A: The EF fine point of the Lamy 2000, in my hands, is in between the Safari F and EF points.  If i could attach a picture I would send you the results :)    Side-by-side, you can definitely see the broader line of the EF Lamy 2000 vs any of my EF Safari's, but only slightly wider, not a huge difference.

**Q: does this pen have a guarantee card？**
A: Yes

**Q: Does the piston knob turn without any resistance when you try to unscrew it? How does it work, does it take force to unscrew it or does it feel loose?**
A: I have 2 Lamy 2000 pens (different nibs) and neither requires much effort to turn the piston. It responds with steady pressure against the turning of the piston screw which is reassuring. Basically the screw moves a piston inside the body of the pen to either empty or fill the ink cavity.  The reservoir for the ink is quite large, probably more than twice as big as a cartridge or convertor would hold, so the advantages of not running out of ink are a real advantage for me as I use one of the pens constantly through the day. I happily recommend the Lamy 2000 as satisfying to use and a well made fountain pen.
