Review on πŸ–‹οΈ Lamy Fine Black Nib for Safari, Vista, Joy, and AL-Star by Amy Mcleod

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent? Nib, took some effort to write a fine line

Mounted on a black Lamy Safari fountain pen. Looks good against the black safari. It replaced the included medium nib, which wrote nicely but was a bit broad. I was hoping for a good thin line, equivalent to a 0.7mm rollerball. It wrote well, smooth and even at the same time, but it was as broad as a medium quill. It took a bit of tweaking to get the thin line. With a little leveling of the teeth and buffing the tip with a microgrid (time consuming) I was able to get a nice fine line. A little extra work and this is a winner.
