    ... he says he doesn't want to scratch the pen from plastic clasps made by the manufacturer yet he hits it against a metal water bottle... Yes it woke me up...

    don't want to scratch the pen with the Lamy box but no problem banging it off a metal water bottle.

      Pro tip: you can watch series on InstaFlixxer. I've been using it for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.

    My Imporium actually came in the box that the Wild Rubin LE Studio came in but was black instead... Maybe the boxes vary

    Is it just me, or is this the first modern Lamy pen with a screw-on cap?

    "I did not put the pen into the clasp bc it's a metal pen and I'm scared this may scratch it"

    I was skeptical of this pen being worth the price but having picked one up on sale I love it so much that I bought another already. The cross-threading is definitely an annoyance.

    This gold Nip on my Lamy Lx in Marron Color… great look!

  • @jeko32
    @jeko32 Před 8 lety

    That pen is almost identical to the Worther Profil as well, though it could probably be said that the Profil took inspiration from the Persona.

  • @andrewtongue7084
    @andrewtongue7084 Před 6 lety

    Aesthetically pleasing (in contrasting barrel & cap); clip is a nice innovation, but I cannot say I'm overly impressed with the nib (basically, an Intrasia design - perhaps copied form the M-B Meisterstuck numbers 12 & 14, altho' they are super nibs to use). For that price, irrespective of the materials employed, it's not even close to being worth 375 euros - that's just plainly exorbitant. No prospective purchase for this guy.
    Excellent & candid review, Stephen, thank you !! :D

  • @Kurazaybo
    @Kurazaybo Před 6 lety

    whoa! had totally forgotten about this one, the most baroque of all Lamy pens. Very unique, I miss the old style kinda conical nib, but they did well with the black, all straight lines and angles PVD coated new nib. If they can do black I wonder why they don't make more colors, or why the new Aion nib does not come in black for the black variant, but anyway...

  • @polksie
    @polksie Před 8 lety

    Great review again. Thanks for doing this pen. I've been very curious about this one.

  • @shiv1g

    can you explain me why you use that transparent plastic sheet while writing??

    • @DavidWood2
      @DavidWood2 Před 8 lety +5

      It's to stop oils from his hand getting onto the paper, which will affect ink absorbency.

  • @MrCarGuy
    @MrCarGuy Před 8 lety

    Holy hell! I just picked up a brand new gold nib Delta for 1/3 the price! I'm not THAT set to spend anything even similar on a Lamy.

    Looks like a Lamy Persona, isn't it?

    • @sbrebrown
      @sbrebrown  Před 8 lety +2

      Yes it does: well-spotted. It's a modernized remake.

    • @manuelpineiromourazos6514
      @manuelpineiromourazos6514 Před 8 lety

      +sbrebrown "modernized", I don't know. The Persona clip and nib are more unique.

    • @jips123
      @jips123 Před 8 lety +1

      +Benoit St-Pierre I had a Persona. Interesting pen, but the cap kept unscrewing itself. That was terrible......

    nice review not my cup of Earl black I do not like the look, which is the strong point of the pen.. that and the price ...

  • @sandral6980
    @sandral6980 Před 6 lety

    Thanks a lot for your interesting, important and funny videos, Stephen!
    Please would you tell me: Do you consider the new Lamy Aion in your in your planing to review? Would highly appreciate that!
    Greetings from Germany by the way! Have been Lamy-fan since 1991 and give the, these times, more and more poorer looking philosophy: "Made in Germany" all my attention and support.
    (Maybe you speak a littlebit of german, do you?)

    • @sbrebrown
      @sbrebrown  Před 6 lety

      +Sandra L Yes, the Aion will be reviewed

      Fine, thanks!

  • @GlennHigley
    @GlennHigley Před 8 lety

    One of Lamy's more attractive offerings, but overpriced for what you get as I find all their pens to be.

  • @xilebat
    @xilebat Před 8 lety

    metal sections can be slippery. did you notice this, and do you think the ribs helped your grip?

    • @sbrebrown
      @sbrebrown  Před 8 lety

      With the coating and the ribs, I didn't find it slippery.

    • @opulan
      @opulan Před 8 lety

      +Jay Karlson You dont know the meaning of slippery until you try use the parker urban ballpoint, with the polished section above the tip, i challenge you to write without your fingers eventually slipping down.

  • @Xozzen
    @Xozzen Před 8 lety

    I have a lamy safari brown (would be quite fitting for you too) and I am actually looking to get this nib for it. Unfortunately it seems they don't sell this nib as a spare part yet, do you have any info on it or do you know (or assume) when it will be sold?

    • @sbrebrown
      @sbrebrown  Před 8 lety

      I don't think the gold nibs are sold separately.

    • @Xozzen
      @Xozzen Před 8 lety

      I can actually buy gold nibs separately at a local brick and mortar pen store, but I would prefer to get the imporium nib for my pen to keep the overall color scheme intact (and also because it looks awesome).

  • @crasmihi
    @crasmihi Před 6 lety

    Can the screw cap seal the pen from drying out?

    • @andrewtongue7084
      @andrewtongue7084 Před 6 lety

      Unless
      there are rubber O rings, I very much doubt it, but then, it may have an inner sleeve in the cap that does exactly that...

    They finally give up that ridiculous triangular handgrip. It is bad even to little chindrem.

    @Tom_- Před 8 lety

    I guess I'm going to echo everyone else with "gorgeous pen, far too expensive". That's in M800 territory :/

    • @andrewtongue7084
      @andrewtongue7084 Před 6 lety

      Well, certainly - but the M800 is, by far, way & above the quality of this Lamy - no brainer !! :)
