Good Basic Calligraphy Pens

I wanted them to address envelopes for Christmas cards. The thinnest tip in this pack (2.0) isn't good enough. My fault - I didn't get it. Additionally, these are flat chiseled pens that work great, full color coverage - no skipping or fading; These should last a long time if you don't press down hard when you write, but remember these are permanent markers and will become less sharp and run out of ink over time. This is a good price for a good starter kit for those interested in learning…

The wide end handle is awkward, but I like the other three!

You will receive two fine tip pens, one medium tip and one broad tip. I wasn't thrilled with the wide-tipped pen - I've seen how good it can be for projects that require very large letters, but for what I'm trying to do (addressed envelopes for special occasions) it's too big. The ink for the broad tip felt a bit dry, like it wouldn't last very long, and flowed unevenly. I like having two fine tip pens in this batch as these are likely to be the ones I will be using the most. They are…

Beautiful, but I would like a narrower tip!

Works as expected. The felt tips are in perfect condition and write smoothly. The kit includes 2mm tips (2), 2.5mm tips (1), and 3.0mm tips (1). The most helpful information in the instructions I found was how to determine the appropriate letter height based on the nib width. It is recommended to use the full width of the tip to draw a total of five horizontal marks (staggered, bottom left to top right - see image). The total distance from the bottom to the top of the stack is equal to the…

Good for the money but not the last time!

I bought these to teach my son calligraphy before delving into pen dipping, ink flow control, etc. This can be frustrating for a student. You put in a few sentences and it looks perfect, and then a giant ink blot drives you nuts. So markers! He lost interest in front of goal almost immediately *sigh*. Like many modern young people, they confuse the manifestation of a desire for something with the desire that it almost immediately coincide with skill. So I used them for my own project. Flow is…

Left handed and learner friendly

I would recommend these pens to anyone who wants to learn or needs to finish a project but they are not intended for a long term hobby. For the price paid - less than $8 - it was a "fair" buy. You will receive four markers - two with a 2.0mm nib, one each with a 2.5mm nib and one 3.0mm nib. You write beautifully, especially if you have calligraphy experience. For beginners, they're a great tool for learning the basic strokes, lettering, and artistic pace (writing with creative skill) of the…
