My first ever fountain pen was a Lama Safari (As reviewed here) and so I feel an attachment with the brand. They are a German company, who makes writing instruments from low-budget ($10 or so) ballpoint pens, to the high-end luxury fountain pens. I recently contacted the Australian Lamy distributor and they offered to send me some pens to try out, so here is the Lamy Nexx, in the brand new limited edition Citron colour!
The Nexx is a pen which Lamy have developed and marketed to early teenagers, or children who are a little too old for their “ABC” range. It’s priced at $39 (depending on the retailer), which is a little cheaper than a Safari. The body is made from anodised aluminium, which tapers from circular at the grip, to triangular at the end of the pen. Unfortunately this means you can’t post the cap.
