Now that Lamy has gold replacement nibs… for my first gold nib pen, would you recommend getting that nib for my Safari or buying an entry level gold nib pen. Which pen would you recommend?
Great question! you’ll pay close to the same price for both
It’s purely going to be a matter of personal preference
If you go with an entry-level gold nib pen like the Pilot VP, Lamy 2000, Pilot E95s, or something similar, the pens themselves may have a little nicer fit and finish than a Safari with a 14k nib
One of the really nice things about the Lamy 14k nib is that you can swap it, so you can put that nib on any of your non-2000 pens!
The 14k nib with the Lamy is a little more of an incremental step into gold nibs, and I really love the way those nibs write
I still think you’ll need to evaluate it on a per-pen basis, as many of the entry-level gold nib pens are pretty different from each other
