Review on ✒️ Manuscript MC1235 Calligraphy Set: Perfect Kit for Beginners, 5mm Nib by Morgan Gilmore

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor quality, good for drawing

I know that beginners often prefer to start with inexpensive tools until they are sure they want to move on to a new activity. DON'T START WITH THIS PEN! The converter is unusable and the ink from the cartridges does not flow well. I've disassembled the feathers and adjusted the feeders, but it's still quite difficult to get consistency. I tried another brand of ink thinking maybe the cheap ink was the problem but even with good quality ink the pens are very difficult to control. Don't waste money and time. I gave it two stars just because if you have experience with fountain pens and are willing to play with them to get them set right or want to experiment with adjusting nibs without accidentally damaging your real pens, this one have good value for money.

Pros
  • Calligraphy Set for Beginners - Includes: Calligraphy Pen;
Cons
  • flimsy
