Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Speedball ink, nibs, and holders from speedball are an adequate quality. Useful for my sketches and watercolor. Solid set for the amateur tinkerer in calligraphy.

Speedball nibs, holders, and inks are all good quality, and really inexpensive.



Cons

The quill itself isn't so bad but most of the tips look like they were made from scrap metal. They’re so scratchy. Even the flex bib isn’t very flexible. These are trash.
