4.0 out of 5 stars We love them
I am teaching our two kids caligraphy and not having to dip the pen in ink is saving a messy step and the process is less daunting. The kids love it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
Being sharpies, I expected a smoother and more accurate marker than these. The tip is really hard, and in two of the five markers it had imperfections that made the trace look shabby. It was really hard to get any nice work done with them. In the end I had to go back to the calligraphy pen to make my wedding signs, because these markers were practically useless.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great pens, July 2, 2010

I gave a few of these kits to my nephews, and they were a big hit. I was told it was the best gift they've received in years. Kids seem to be into calligraphy these days. The only issue is that in this small kit multiple nibs (and ink colors) are used by the same pen body, which means a lot of cleaning. There is another kit option sold by Amazon by the same maker having separate pens for the various nibs, which I would recommend if you want to avoid that problem.

Love these markers. Not only are they simple to use but they last so long and make your handwriting look fabulous. I just wish they would make them in more colors!!!

One of the 5 markers was damaged...box was damaged... the Sharpie Marker itself, too large to do Calligraphy with...the ink bleeds out and ruins the words...

The pens are fine except one of them was missing. I only recieved 4 of the 5 markers. the brown one was not there. It's irresponsible of a company to send out a product that is not complete but I was not going to go to the trouble of sending it back for a replacement for just one pen.
