Thanks for this post. Bought a Lamy several years ago and never crossed my mind it could be counterfeit. It felt so scratchy when writing that eventually I just gave up on it. Now when I compare it to the fake one from the images in the post above, it has all the telltale signs.

You know, mine felt scratchy too. Always just figured I was doing something wrong or that's what you get for getting a cheaper fountain pen.

Fairly sure mine was from an official reseller but I'll have to double check
