Have these filler bought as a gift, because I was looking for a special writing instrument that is more down expensive as some other filler, yet far enough "her" power. The Lamy pen 065 studio steel is my safe succeeded because the filler makes an absolutely high-quality impression of the barrel and cap are made of brushed stainless steel, the handle made of matt black plastic, which however does not act cheap. The pen fits comfortably in your hand and is characterized by a really "soft" writing pen from (chose the M version, if you like it "fine", and F or EF can take), which nevertheless does not stand out too thick. Ever are the fillers of the Lamy brand at the moment my favorite, also own several copies for myself (though with calligraphy pens), who write all wonderful. So if for a suitable Christmas present for someone who examines the value a beautiful typeface sets ... only, absolute buy recommendation!
