Is this pen heavier than the black plastic one? I prefer heavy pens.

I have no idea. This was the only Lamy pen that I have encountered. I picked this one so it could be engraved for a groomsman gift and that worked very well.

Yes, It is a good bit heavier than the plastic Safari. It's also heavier if you post the cap on the end when you write. To me it feels perfect with the cap posted, although to some this might be a bit too heavy. Overall it's a very substantial pen and you won't be disappointed!

This pen may not work for you. It is pretty light weight. Although, I am not aware of the weight of the black plastic. I would say it is probably much better made.

most likely its its plastic is really noticeable. its not like the texture of a pen.

I'm assuming yes, MontBlank is definitely more expensive, but is a good looking pen, has a good weight to it and I don't have any issues with writing. Hope that helps

The writing tip is metal, not the silver colored plastic below the soft grip. The things I like best about this pen are the weight and feel, but the most important thing is the ink. The ink flows smoothly (no clumping) and dries as quickly as I write, so there is no smudging and you get a beautiful consistent line.

I have no clue on how much this shipment weighs. I was more concerned about thequality of a Chinese made fountain pen. I was quite pleased with the pen's qualityand that it wrote amazing well considering the price was so low.

the bottom of the pen including inside of the rubber sleeve is metal, and the top part of the pen is plastic. So the bottom to about 3 times heavier then the top of the pen.

Been sketching with Flair tips since 1971. Then they had a small white point guard at the writing tip, but the tipstill got wider after usage and pressure. The ones I use today don't have that point guard and seem to be harder and keep a point longer but still get wider and softer after usage and pressure. My first time hearing "Hardhead"associated with Flair pens. Sounds like a selling tag. Just my opinion. Black is the only color I've ever used, aboutone a month.

the extra long are thicker than 5.2" they feel about the same thickness as a uniball pen. I like the length and heft of them much more than the 5.2".

It's heavier and has a much more solid feel than the Surface stylus. On the other hand, it does not have an "eraser" on the other end like the Surface stylus does.

Its basically the safari, with an aluminum body, depending on what kind of nib you had chosen with the safari, if you had always used extra fine with the safari then this pen basically feels the same in terms of being a little more scratchy than a fine and more so then a medium nib. Depending on your preferences this pen may be better or worse, some people prefer the hard plastic feel of the safari but i personally like the nice cold aluminum that encompasses this pen, it almost feels a little thinner than the safari exterior, and may scratch a little easier, but i still like this more than the safari none the less.

Imho its better than the G2. The ink flows as well as a gel pen but its a little bit thicker and doesnt smear like I find the gel pens do. I recomend this pen to everyone that asks.

Considering that it is ink, even writing with a light touch on the pen the line thickness is still thicker than a 0.9 mm mechanical pencil. I just tested it. The line thickness is similar to a .5 or .7mm gel pen at regular writing speed.

Hello, is the pen metal and heavy or is it like a lightweight plastic chrome of some sort?

Think of a normal pen, its that same size and thickness. The weight might be a little heavier, but not uncomfortable. I find it to be more comfortable than the pen that comes with the tablet. If you write a lot, its worth getting, not only for the feel of it, but the eraser is such a convenient feature

if they have seen it before no but the pen is big so you would expect it to be heavy which its not so the weight of the pen would give it away

That is correct. It is essentially a pen that scratches instead of writes. It is not powered or anything. Think of it as being similar to using a nail to write on something, but the tip is harder and sharper.

I recently purchased these. I use them for note taking in Penultimate App and I like this tip better than the one that came with the stylus. It is a little bit harder (not as soft as the old one that came with the stylus) but I find it easier to write with, not sure about drawing.
