This ink is washable, so parents can give it to kids without worrying. As pen-manufacturer-brand fountain pen blue inks go (most are lighter than ballpoint and rollerball/gel blues), this one's color is OK for me. It can also be eradicated/erased by sulfate-sulfite eradicators such as the Pelikan Super-Pirat, which is convenient for students.

If you consider buying a fountain pen, I will recommend buying it with a converter because 1) the selection of ink is much, much greater when bought in bottles and 2) it is less expensive and 3) it is so much more "in tune" with the pleasure of writing with a fountain pen when you go through the ritual of filling it the old fashion way. Just my 5 cents worth of opinion!

A courtious and responsive vendor. I love my Lamy fountain pens but refills are hard to find in the US. I know where to get them from in the future.

How much can you say about an ink cartridge? It has ink. They only work in Lamy pens (I still remember the days when Lamys used standard cartridges), but Lamy pens rock. Seriously, its the only fountain pen I have ever put through the washing machine without ruining it. So yeah. The price seems kind of steep.

The Safari is well made and feels solid. Strokes smootly across all grades of paper. Suitable for daily use when I am out and about. I bought the medium nib but probably should have gone with the fine nib, but that's a personal preference. If you buy this for daily use you will be "Safari ready" like me.
