Surprisingly nice writer for the money.
Pen is supplied in minimalist card box, along with one blue Lamy ink refill. The finish is very smooth and modern: it feels like a quality items and looks more expensive than it is. The graphite colour looks particularly good: it looks a bit like titanium metal. The pen is mainly made of aluminium, and is quite lightweight. The little 'capsule' shape in the barrel is a hole ( there one on both sides of the pen): this allows you to keep an eye on the ink level without opening it up. The cap is 'push to fit' and there is a subtle click to indicate that it is on properly. The clip is strong and springy: it should stay put in your pocket/ bag. The nib is stainless steel, and writes a nice wet, even line: no flooding, not scratchy. There is some flex in the nib ( which is a good thing), and it writes almost as nicely as my 'daily driver' pen: a Pelikan M200 (fine nib), which is high praise (the Pelikan is much more expensive). The sculpted (plastic) grip is very comfortable to hold for long periods of time ( I'm right handed). This pen will take the Lamy Z24 converter ( less than £4), which allows the use of bottled ink instead of cartridges ( much cheaper, better variety of inks available). If you are interested in video reviews of pens like these, you may be interested in SBREBrowns Youtube videos.

A great starter pen that feels like a keeper.
Total fountain pen newbie here. I was torn between this and the Safari, but I wanted a pen I'd still like in 50 years, and the metal barrel ticks that box. The all-black look is very sleek. It arrived early, in an unsealed cardboard box. No instructions, no warranty. Because of that, I was worried about it being genuine, but I was reassured by the blue cartridge, and the residual blue ink in the pen from testing. I followed a video to put a converter and black ink into it, and that was easy and took almost no time after flushing the blue ink out. The grip makes it comfortable to hold, and is a nice guide for a newbie, ESPECIALLY a pen-spinner like me. It's not too heavy (even when the cap is on the back,) and it writes really nicely. There's a little bit of feedback from the nib, which I quite like, and a fine nib suits me well enough. I think I will eventually buy another Lamy with an extra-fine nib, just to see the difference. My ONLY gripe is that the ink window doesn't line up perfectly with the grip, which apparently is a thing with Lamy, but for the price, the longevity of the pen, and my inexperience, I'm not terribly bothered. Thanks Lamy!

Excellent entry-level every day carry fountain pen
Nice writing pen and I really like the grip - this almost triangular type grip makes holding the pen much more pleasant. Only had this modestly priced fountain pen for a couple of weeks but been impressed with the flow of ink and the nib is quite smooth: it has a bit more feedback than the other fountain pen I own (Monteverde Invincia Stealth) but this Lamy pen is more than half the price and any minor feedback (i.e. slight scratching) only really noticeable on low quality paper (not sure would have noticed if did not also have the Monteverde to compare against) Having the see-through window is a nice touch so you can see your level of ink. I like that replacing the nib is really easy if needed or if I simply want to used a different sized nib - placing tape over the top of the nib & pulling on the tape, away from the pen, works a treat to remove while putting back in just needs you to push while holding edges of the nib. I like idea of having one pen with more than one nib: much more economical option than buying multiple pens if you are looking for option of different writing styles. A little bit disappointed that pen did not come with a converter so can use with bottled ink. Something to be considered if you use or planning to use bottled ink: basic converter not too expensive but still an extra £3/4.

Very good ink pen for kids
This is something I had wanted to gift my son - was waiting till he gets to an age when he can use pens (instead of pencils). Wanted to choose something long lasting (this one is made of aluminium) and can improve his hand-writing skills. Packaging was simple (just the pen in a cardboard box) and was delivered fast. The pen is thicker than it looks (probably due to the squarish profile) but its comfortable to hold in the hand (even for secondary school kids). The nib takes some time to get smooth (couple days) but its working well now. Happy with my purchase!

Surprising touch of class
My Red ‘Lego plastic” Lamy Safari is a fab workhorse, and wondered if buying an Al-Star was just me being foolish? But I must confess that the metal finish is light and Absolutely beautiful to look at and hold. The grip section looks superb, Smokey transparency finish in material that contrasts well with the body. I don’t hold the pen in the suggested tripod grip the pen is designed for, but my fingers find their place. A lovely light pen, super smooth nib that has been 100% reliable. I really enjoy using this pen, and it’s one that is nice to be seen with - folks notice the beautiful metallic finish and gorgeous colour. Got a great price here, would make a lovely gift for a studious note taker!

The Lamy AL‑star White Silver fountain pen delivers on both style and performance. Its sleek white aluminum body with subtle silver accents looks modern and professional. The ergonomic grip and lightweight design make long writing sessions comfortable. The nib writes smoothly with consistent ink flow, and the clear grip section lets you monitor ink levels—practical and classy. It’s durable, reliable, and perfect for daily writing, note-taking, or even gifting. A top-notch pen that feels premium without breaking the bank!

ペンのバランスも良く、書き心地良好です! 細いのが良いのでFを購入しましたが、パイロット社のFと比べると太文字になりますので注意! 自分は、漢字書くならもっと細いのが良いと思い、EFを追加で購入しましたー
