Considering Caran D’ache Leman vs Varius

**Z3ke** · November 11th, 2020, 09:24 AM

Considering adding the leman and varius to the collection. Im coming from a lamy 2k, pelican m8xx and namiki. Anyone can offer their thoughts on the writing experience between the two?

Here's the link to the cached page, for those of you who might also be interested in a passing way. As I had to look for it, and therefore had the URL, it seemed simple courtesy to share it here.

Of the two (I actually don't have the Leman but rather its predecessor the Genève) I tend to use the Varius more often. Mine are the China Blue and Rosewood. The rosewood gets the most use of the three.

My favorite of my Cd'As though is my Hexagonal China Black.

Thank you for the pics and comparisons! Why does the wood version get the most use over the others? I really like the ivanhoe pvd and the china black actually.

I like the look a feel of the wood. But of all my Cd'A pens the Ecridor is the one that gets the most pocket time.
