The Safari is a noted design by Wolfgang Fabian[1][2] and Bernt Spiegel of the Entwicklungsgruppe Mannheim[3] which remains in production from 1980. The Safari and the derived AL-star and Vista lines are intended for students/young writers and feature a non round grip section optimized to be held with a 'tripod pen grip'. The Safari receives a new limited edition color every year, usually with a matching bottle of ink.
