The LAMY 2000 has been writing design history since 1966. As a timeless classic it is still one of the most modern writing instruments today. This pen takes a proprietary Lamy refill which writes incredibly smooth. The stainless steel body adds a bit of weight to the pen. If you think you would like an average or lighter weight pen, check out the classic resin 2000 body. This ballpoint extends its point by clicking the back.  This pen takes a Lamy M16 refill.
