The Safari's are great take to work pens and with the design of the grip, they are specifically designed as a starter fountain pen (well, more of a next step up pen after the ubiquitous wood/plastic school pens that kids start out with). I personally favor the feel of the metal versions, but that is a preference of look and price. Lamy's converters are proprietary but are some of the best and hold a lot of ink, adding to their value as a work pen (they only take proprietary cartridges, if that matters to you). However, a few things to think about for this drop specifically. Except for a few of the higher end pens (the 2000 and the D3), all Lamy nibs can be swapped (even the rounded one for the Aion and the gold nibs found on some version of the Studio and Scala), so unless you want two identical pens inked at once, your better deal is to buy one body and an assortment of nibs. Also, Lamy nibs run a bit wide, even by Western standards; and do to production limits, they are starting to limit extra fine steel nibs in North America, so if you favor smaller nibs, you might have to import an extra fine.
