Cleaning & Inking the Lamy Safari! 

Amazing video! My lamy safari was not working for about a year. I cleaned it multiple times and didn't know the feed was removable till i watched your video! Pen works perfectly now, thanks so much for sharing!

Just gave the nib and the barrel 2 thorough rinses, dried them and everything was fine transitioning from black to green ink. Complete disassembly not required.

I enjoyed this video! More than just teaching us how to clean our Lamy safari pen. Your delivery is like poetry.

I found this so relaxing, and interesting. Thank you for teaching me a bit more about the vast world of fountain pens. :)

I am delighted with your amazing instructions, enjoyment while cleaning it! Thank you!

You didn’t show how we have to slide the feed correctly back in to the grip. I think it is very tricky to do it in the Lamy Safari. Recently I didn’t do it properly and the feed got struck up and I couldn’t take it out. When I attempted to pull the feed out using pliers I managed to break the feed. The remaining portion is inside the grip. I don’t know how to take out that piece. So I lost the feed as well as the grip. Can anyone tell me how to take out the broken piece?

It workeeeed 🎉 I didn’t know that I can take the feed out 🙈 Thanks a lot, this is really helpful

Great, clear instructions. Thank you.

Good instructional video that I found very enjoyable. Many thanks.

Thank you for the video. I learned today my fine tip does not like this shimmer ink. ❤

I have the mango safari too! I love it. You’re right it’s so durable. A great travel pen! I really enjoy your content and can’t wait for the next video! -Simon

it also holds up well to the occasional chewing on the end if you are considering your next word.

Very helpful. Thanks.

Using rubber medical exam gloves can really help in keeping your hands/fingers free of ink and can be used for many cleanings if you are careful when removing them.

Excelent, thanks

Goulet recommends not really messing with the feed unless it’s necessary. A lot of options for it to go wrong. My feed was oriented slightly off on reentry and got jammed. Then snapped clean off trying to pull it out. Clearly I learned my lesson but just a word of warning for any other new people trying this. Nonetheless a good video even though my experience ended tragically

Thanks for this. I just got my Lamy Safari today and this video will be helpful later on. On another note, what size nib are you using? 1.1? or 1.5?

Thank you for showing exactly what you do to clean, helpful indeed. I noticed that you do not have many videos about inks, perhaps you may consider making a video explaining which inks you like or dislike and why. There was one video where you said that you do not like Noodler's ink, but you did not go into why that is the case.

I havethe same Mango pen! my first fountain

Vert satisfying

I have a Lamy that looks just like yours. It’s plugged and I can’t remove the nib. Should it come off all the Lamy’s or do I maybe have one that I can’t remove the nib? I don’t find any marking that says anything but Lamy. Thank you for your help.

Great video but my nib and feed is stuck and i do not know what i should do i tried the tape method but it is not working

if no tool is handy, tape on the nib is an easy way to remove it.

Got to be careful not to rinse nib and feed in the sink..if it slips you've had it.

Bro you wasted too much water
