Safari Fountain Charcoal Medium L17M
Amazon's catalog no longer lists this product (checked 2026-11-02). The name comes from the link HN users posted.
Start with either Lamy Safary [0] or Pilot Metropolitan [1].
If you like smooth, go with Medium nib, and if you like some feedback, go with Fine, as I said.
Writing on decent paper (not always the expensive one) with a decent medium nib pen is something everyone needs to try at least once.
