For an everday pen, I use a Lamy Safari fountain pen[0] with an extra-fine nib. For a pencil I use a Pentel GraphGear 1000[1] in 0.5mm. [0] http://www.lamy.com

- bch 11y agoHi. Question regarding your Safari -- does it carry well ? For example, can you toss it in a courier bag and tote it around safely without it leaking ink, or having some other fountain-pen-specific problem happening ?
- privong 11y agoTo be honest, I haven't really tried that, so I can't say for sure. I usually carry mine clipped to my shirt or sportcoat pocket. The only time I had an ink leakage issue was when I dropped it from about stomach-height and the ink reservoir came slightly loose and there was some leaking a few days later. So now I just give it a quick check if I've dropped it, to be sure nothing came loose. I've dropped it more than once, and it's only had a problem that one time. I have also flown with it numerous times. I have the ink convertor, and I squeeze out the air (or make sure it's full of ink) before I fly, and have had no problems. I have even written with it in-flight, without issues.
