Design
Distinctive metal clip which I really like.
The grip section – It’s a love or hate with this pen and I love it.
Writing
Refill Performance
It’s an oil-based Lamy M16 refill so you know what you’re getting. It’s not super smooth and does take a bit of effort to move across the page with extended use.
Now that could be the pen… a quick comparison with the Lamy cp1 shows that the pen uses less resistance with the same refill. More testing is required on this I feel!
Pro’s
- Affordable
- Durable ASA Plastic construction
- Lightweight
- Comfortable for extended writing (If you like the grip)
- SO MANY COLOUR OPTIONS
Con’s
- Plastic body feels less premium
- Unique grip might not suit everyone
- Limited refill compatibility
Notes
The M17 ballpoint refill is not available everywhere which will give Lamy ballpoint users another option.
