Comparable to FC Pitt and Staedtler liners.

I really like this set. I would say that it is almost impossible to distinguish these pencils from faber-castell and from staedtler. I'm pretty picky about art supplies, I used to sell them to make a living while I was in art school in college. When placed side by side, I have a very hard time distinguishing one of these pens from one another. You can't go wrong with these markers and I would say if for any reason you prefer the Faber Castell or Staedtler brand names then go for either of the two. these three brands you prefer. But if you're just looking for a pigment-based permanent ink pen, each of these three pens are of excellent quality. I think you would have a hard time telling the difference between them in a blind test. I feel like the Staedtler has a slight advantage over these other two because I really like that its hard plastic body stands up when you use it at an angle so you can show off which ones you want to take. But on the other hand, it's more of a consumer plastic and needs to be recycled or processed, and most artists have a way of working with their pens anyway, so a case might not be what you're talking about. The reason I have not included photos and this review is because this is a solid, high quality product that will perform as you would expect any of these three brands to do your job.

Pros
  • Painting, art and craft supplies
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
