Ask a questionHi, I had a Lamy Safari pen years ago, I am left handed but just had an ordinary nib and it seemed fine. I want to order a Lamy pen but would it actually be better to order a left handed one this time? Thanks

0Bureau replies: one of the best features of Lamy Safari pen is how easy it is to swap the nib :) I'd recommend trying both - writing is very personal, so you may be fine with normal nibs. LH nibs are fine/medium nibs which are cut under an angle to help lefties.
