## Description

Product Description Ballpoint pen made of sturdy ABS plastic, matt charcoal / metal clip, black / ergonomic grip / with giant refill LAMY M 16 black M Set Contains: LAMY safari ballpoint pen

Review: It's Eccentric, German, and Stylish - I purchased this pen for 2 reasons: 1. It's German 2. It's Stylish I take this pen into my office everyday and no one compliments me, but I silently judge all of them for not noticing the sleek perfect craftsmanship of my pen. They don't recognize the distinct effort and curation on my part to select the fanciest of utilitarian items for my desk, but I know that I am superior in this way. The other reasons were hopes that it would be comfortable, reliable, and long lasting. Even the box exudes eccentric German design, letting you know you've purchased a very special pen. I've used these pens before but I always loose them per my fault. This pen is great for non-artistic writing and note taking. I find the hard plastic body especially comfortable in my hands as I have a very firm grip and often press hard on the paper. You can't go wrong with this, it's a luxury pen you can afford.
Review: Great writing pen! - Great Pen.
