[QUOTE="Blackhorse, post: 481860, member: 1365"] I won't go into any detail about the Lamy Safari. If you're here and reading this you likely are familiar with the pen & probably even have one or more laying around. Good German design. You love them or you don't due to the triangular grip section. Rugged. Not a finely crafted instrument, but a tough and fun tool. Nibs of every conceivable type that are easy to switch. Every color under the rainbow. The 2016 Special Edition is PURPLE (Dark Lilac) All the furniture, or whatever, is black. Cool combo. The Dark Lilac was received with rousing cheers from the pen geeks worldwide. An instant hit. But even more so was the accompanying ink...yes its called Dark Lilac. EVERYONE out there loves it. It shades. It has a gold sheen. It's THE perfect purple color apparently. Except it's gone now. Made for just 2016. Tragedy! Weeping. Wailing, Gnashing of teeth. Except I found a couple of places in the U.K. that still have it in cartridges! And except for the postage it's cheap. So I popped for a pen from Vanness in Little Rock ($30) and have a raft of cartridges on the way. I got my semi-adult daughter a cool Japanese Journal thing for Valentine's Day and this is the PERFECT pen to go with it. Nice.
