I’m studying for a test next week, so the amount of random clicking-around that I’ve been able to do has been limited.

Your off-topic pen link of the week: Remember I asked once about decent fountain pens that were not expensive? I found one, and it’s great.
Hi Justin,
Lamy Safari[0] is also frequently recommended – I got mine some weeks ago and, so far, I’m satisfied :^)
Now I’m browsing for a good, and not too pricey, black ink.
Regards,
Raf

I tried the Safari, as a ballpoint – the triangular grip at the bottom of the pen just wasn’t comfortable for me. I found myself switching back to a Uniball. I did really like every other aspect of the Lamy pen, though.
