My favorite

This is my favorite fountain pen of all 30+ that I own. It's heavy, well-balanced, and so beautifully designed that I justy like holding it. The nib is smooth and bouncy. The fins don't get in my way and I don't find the section to be too slippery, like some have reported.

Amazing pen if you like 'em HEAVY

So happy I got this with a B-nib as it deals with the weight better. Love the L2000s

German Quality

Very heavy, feels solidly built. Writing with the cap on (as pictured) does make it a bit top heavy. Value wise you’re better off with a standard 2000 or even a Studio as this is more of a “premium” item.

Much too heavy, weighted all wrong

This pen is a nightmare to handle. To begin it is back heavy. The pen is always try to fall back out of your hand. Then to make things worse the cap cannot hold the pen on its own. So I have broken this pen twice. Just go with the traditional 2000

It's as good as it looks.

Understated design with subtle quality. Doesn't draw attention to itself and fits nearly desk workspace; the definition of simple yet elegant. Fine tip works a treat, writes similar to rollerballs but feels so much better. You'd expect the sheer heft of the shell to mute the feedback of the nib, but it's actually pretty good all things considered. Writes very well out of the box but you probably knew that. If you want butter there's always lapping paper. Very happy with my purchase. Can't go wrong at this price.

Great version of the Lamy 2000

I loved it. Heavy but that's what you wanted when you ordered the stainless steel version yes? Feels solid in the hand. Smooth nib. Exactly what I expected. Great construction.

This is an excellent pen, very heavy, best as a desk pen

This, of course, is the stainless steel version of the classic Makrolon (like fibreglas) 2000. It is the exact same shape and uses same internal parts, only the entire body and cap are stainless steel, and hence it has no ink window. It is very heavy, probably the heaviest pen that I own, heavier than brass-bodied Parker Sonnets. It writes exquisitely. I have 2000’s with a Broad and a Medium nib, both broader than their sister Lamy nibs (like on the Safari or Al-Star) which this pen does NOT share. A different nib with a different grind, very much more precise and “worked” than the usual swappable Lamy nibs. There is a sweet spot, moreso on the Broad, but once you learn to land on that sweet spot, the pen writes flawlessly and is smooth as butter. The little projections from the section that allow the cap to click shut act as locators on an otherwise completely round and smooth section. The only “problem” relates to its weight, and hence its inertia. Palming this pen and moving one’s hands about risks it slipping out and landing point-first, since it is so sleek and tapered. I work in health care, a frantic environment, and I would NOT take this pen to work. I use it exclusively at my desk at home, where it is less likely I will accidentally fling it.

This is a phenominal pen!

I've had my brand-new stainless steel Lamy 2000 with a fine nib for 19-days. Allow me to highlight what I love, and also share the solitary dislike. I love the simplicity and yet elegance of the design. I love the look and color of the brushed stainless steel. I love the heft of the pen. This is not some castaway; it's a real tool and feels like it. It's got "presence." I confess that I'm not terribly fond of piston filler pens. I have a hard time filling piston filler pens out of sample vials. (I love the color selection of available fountain pen inks and like to change inks fairly frequently, choosing from among dozens of sample vials I have on-hand.) Not so with this brand-new Lamy 2000! For the first time, I have a piston filler fountain pen that can suck up ink from the very bottom of a small 2-to-3 ML sample vial. It's liberating!! I love that this is the easiest piston filler pen to re-ink that I own! I love the piston filler knob. It works flawlessly and smoothly--like the real tool that it is. Yet, if you weren't looking for it, you can't even see the filler knob and wouldn't even know how to fill it. Even with stainless steel the seam for the knob is virtually invisible. I love the polished look and flexibility of the spring-loaded pocket clip. It fits easily and snugly in my shirt pocket. While I think it's appearance is perfect, I really wouldn't mind having the Lamy name engraved on this shiny clip instead of on the cap. I love the feel of capping and uncapping this pen. It doesn't really produce a clicking sound, but, rather, you feel it make a smooth secure locking-in-place sort of feeling. Furthermore, the cap posts securely on the back end. The writing experience? Like writing on silk! Truly remarkable and smooth! No skipping, no ink flow problems, no scratching. Truly flawless. It worked flawlessly right out of the box, and I haven't done anything at all to the nib, except write with it. Not only is the writing experience buttery smooth, but I am so grateful at not experiencing pain in the callous on my writing finger, even after three-hour writing sessions. Usually this callous is sore or indented from threads or ridges on my other pens--any other pen. I experienced no pain at my callous with this pen. Not only is the nib smooth and flawless, but the pen barrel itself feels completely the same, like a perfect symbiosis of both form and function. So what is my solitary dislike? The weight. But even this is a love-hate issue for me. On the one hand, I love the heft and feel of this pen, but on the other, the weight sometimes causes it to slip from my hand, so-to-speak, because there's almost nothing to hold on to. I say "almost" because I discovered that not only did those little side nibs (the nibs that work to secure the cap) not prove to be annoying to me, but I found them to almost be essential for me to maintain the pen and its rotation in my hand, especially after a couple hours of writing. These nibs didn't bother my writing callous, but I often used my thumb on one of these nibs to hold it in place in my hand. Would I purchase the pen again, if I had the opportunity? Yes, without question. In fact, I want another, and I need to see if it comes with a stub nib.
