Review on πŸ–‹οΈ Speedball Elegant Writer Calligraphy Marker Set, Black, 2.0 mm, 2.5 mm & 3.0 mm by Jamie Smith

Revainrating 4 out of 5

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 comfortable to hold. I took a photo of my first attempt at using these pens (mind you I don't know calligraphy and this was my very first use of pens - this should show potential buyers what to expect from these pens. I have to regular lined paper uses scale things.)
