After disassembling my LAMY 2000 a few times, I have observed that the first couple of threads on the plastic piston shaft/rod have been chewed up by the piston knob thingamabob. I strongly believe that the strange sounds that one hears while trying to disassemble the piston is exactly the chewing sounds from this destructive process. I would not suggest disassembling the LAMY 2000 this manner. I have a partially destroyed LAMY 2000, now, which sounds strangely now every time, and I am not sure if I will manage to get a replacement piston shaft. I am noting that I have followed very strictly all the instructions available from retailers in CZcams, and still that whole "catastrophe" happened. Do not take out the piston shaft. That would be my advice folks.
I see.. Thank you for your advice! That's one thing I did not see coming.. But given you have more experience in the Lamy 2Ks, that's good sound advice. Thank you! :)
@@pen_journal quite disappointed to be honest. I have asked LAMY Global whether they are selling a replacement piston shaft, and now wait to see what happens.
@@7_v610 Thank you for giving us the heads up... Hopefully they can get back to you with a favourable solution.
@@pen_journal my pleasure. If/when I hear back from LAMY, I will try to mention here what options (if any) they came back to me with.
@@7_v610 Thank you so much!!! :)
Hello, your video is very informative. I watched many videos about Lamy 2000, read many reviews and finally bought it from Amazon. But unfortunately I was disappointed. I was attracted by the overall look of the pen, no issues here. However, I bought an F nib and it was not as comfortable as I wanted. First of all, instead of a gold nib there was hard writing that looked like steel, and the ink was very pale and dry, hardly flowing at all. I washed the palate of the pen several times with warm water and mild pure soap, but the result did not change. .Since I trust the Lamy company, I sent it to the service instead of returning it. He stayed as a guest in Germany for about two months and returned. To be honest, not much has changed. My opinion about the pen is that it writes hard and dry, the ink is not enough for reflex writing such as signatures. I also have a Lamy 2000 OM nib, it is very thick so my writings are wet. , I don't think the pen Nib feels like 14 carat gold. Platinum "M" nib doesn't even give the pleasure of a fountain pen. I'm sorry, but I couldn't warm up to the pen, so what do you think I should do?
I think it all depends.
First off, the Lamy 2K is a pen that has a sweet spot, not good for writers that tend to "roll" their pens when they write (just like me); so I used my 2k for short sentences (for headers and short paragraphs)...
If you can manage and like the OM nib, and struggle to like the F nib, I would suggest to sell or trade off the Lamy (F) and just keep the OM. The pen should serve you and if it doesn't "fit" your writing style, than move on. Just my 2 cents, hope it helps!
Thanks for watching! :)
Cap disassembly?
Ah, sorry! Forgotten about the cap!
Typically I don't do cap disassemblies unless it's absolutely necessary. Given such, I had no experience in taking a 2k Cap apart to be honest.
