Was eyeing a violet Lamy Safari for quite some time. Finally found one on Makoba. It was delivered in 3-4 days time as it was shipped from Ahmedabad.
The pen writes like I expected it to. It takes some time for the pen to break in. After that it is really good. Really like the Lamy grip. I own multiple Lamy's, some for myself, some for my kids. They are all happy with it. All of these are in fine nib except for one Lamy Al-Star, which has an EF nib. The EF is more like a medium when compared to a Pilot Metropolitan/MR. If the ink used is not fluid enough, it needs to be cleaned after one use. I find Lamy fine nib to be more fluent while writing. It lays down a slightly thicker line in comparison to Waterman Expert Fine nib or Pilot Metropolitan Medium nib, but the flow is pretty consistent when compared with the EF nib. I use a cartridge and fill the ink in it using a 5 ml syringe. I clean my pens with RO water after 2-3 rounds of full cartridge usage to maintain good consistent ink flow in my fountain pens.
Hope this helps.
The pen came in a Lamy box and to my surprise the warranty card was stamped with Makoba seal. Generally we don't get these warranty cards when we buy a pen online from Amazon sellers. Thank you for this.
I wanted a well known and we'll appreciated starter fountain pen to begin my journey into the fountain pen world. I already own 3 pens from Indian fountain pen brands. But i wanted a known case study for comparison to learn about the features and facets that are expected of in a good fountain pen. This lamy safari has been a blessing for this objective and I'm soooooo grateful that stores like makoba exist for Indian consumers of fountain pens. If possible, kindly restock Sailor Hiace Neo 1.0 mm stub clear fountain pen. Have been wanting it for sooo long.

from 627 reviewsWaterman Hemisphere Roller Ball Pen - Stainless Steel GT
Very good store for premium and exclusive pen, i think it is only pen store in Ahmedabad who are masters in all premium brands. Very good collection specially Montblanc. They have latest collection of Pierre Auguste Renoir. Must visit store
If the pen is $7000, then imagine the ink refill price
Got this as a gift and began to use fountain pens again after decades
I ordered pilot E 95 gold nib fountain pens and they are delivered pretty fast. Packaging is excellent and great price! The pens are writing simply amazing
Great Quality Product. Value for money.
I was in dilemma while purchasing this product from Makoba but in the end the delivery was great and the product came with a good packaging.
Actually I wanted just the body and had a CM nib from a broken Prera. So it served the purpose excellently
Elan Leather 2 Pen Holder - Brown
Kaweco is a legendary German brand, and this Brass Sport FP model is their flagship pen. I got it almost 2 years ago and am typing a review after using it all this time. There is not much to say about the pen, as it’s in the collection of every serious FP lover. Amazingly, the pen develops a dark patina after a long use, making it more attractive. I use only Kaweco ink to go with it, and they are fabulous, too.
The service rendered by Makoba is flawless.
