Speedball Art Products SB94157 Signature Series Calligraphy Set

Can't think of a single PRO about this set.1. Nib holder has some type of absorbent material inside it, so that when I washed the nib in the cleaner and washed the end of the holders with the cleaner, it absorbed so much that the interior expanded, splitting the once-lavish looking exterior.2. Nib is easily the worst of all the nibs I've now experimented with. Flow is inconsistent across all the inks I use, even though it's not a flexible nib. I never use it anymore, having moved on to Zebras, Leonhardts, Stenos, etc.3. Ink bleeds through paper worse than any other ink I've used, and contrary to it's claims, it's not even remotely waterproof. I wouldn't even call it water-resistant.4. Cleaner - Only ok. Requires a longer soak for nibs than Dr. P.H. Martin's Bombay cleaner to get them completely clean, and the container it comes in doesn't allow for easy transfer to a better container.

It takes a bit of getting used to dealing with. After the first time, I became accustomed to holding it and apply pressure to create the line thickness I was looking for. I noticed a bit of cracking on the stylus already. I've had it for a few weeks. The ink is okay. I have Dr. Ph Martin's ink that is much better. The ink isn't as pigmented and by comparison looks gray-ish. The cleaner works okay as well for the nib. However, mild soap and water have achieved the same results.

I really like this pen. The nib it came with is a little stiff but still writes really nice n smooth, (i will be buying more nibs to go with this)its pretty good for the low price though and overall i think its a good pen for beginners...

My boys were so excited to get these in the mail. It meant that our Art Class had progressed to Calligraphy. Everything was just as I expected.

I don't know what you're expecting for 8 bucks so it's really just alright

This is okay as a basic ink pen. Rate it somewhere in the middle with good use for a beginner.

Awesome pen and nib. The ink is the good, thick ink that doesn't bleed through the paper. I will buy similar again.

Beautiful design, great quality.

Cleaner had dried up when I opened the bottleIt was supposed to be 12 ML but nothing

Estoy muy molesta. El artículo llegó en color dorado y ROTO, el empaque estaba cerrado pero al sacarlo estaba roto. Pésima calidad.

Good value

Es perfecta para escribir. Además de elegante. Llego en perfectas condiciones y a tiempo. La tinta puede que no permita escribir con fluidez por mas de una frase pero usando una tinta mas diluida o que no seque tan rápido queda resuelto.

No tengo ottra cosa mas que decir. La pluma es hermosa y por el precio es muy bueno que tenga el limpiador y la tinta. Recomendable.
