I am a total novice and I love the Hunt 101 nibs (only my technique occasionally lets them down). These nibs are very sharp and are supposed to be! They need a very light touch on the upstroke or they will snag and you will end up with ink splats on your work. But with practice you will get better. I would not recommend these nibs for an absolute beginner as most will be a little too heavy handed to get the best from them. Having said that if you treat with a very light touch, there is no reason why you can't use them as a beginner. I would recommend this set anyway for beginners as you get the oblique nib holder included, into which you can put more beginner friendly 'G' nibs in, and when you are more used to using nibs you will have the 101's to try out. Review: Excellent starter pen for those wanting to try something new. - Great starter pen for those wanting to try an oblique pen holder. Easy to use, doesn't require pliers to change nibs just a small piece of paper towel to stop oil from your hands contaminating the nib. Only down side is after a while the nib is becoming lose in the holder from use. That's why this is a great starter pen to try before you invest in the much more expensive pens out there. Added bonus, an assortment of nibs included. ## Features - USE The Speedball Oblique Pen Set is designed for Copperplate and Spencerian script which are traditional styles of calligraphy writing that use a sharp pointed nib.

The pen and nibs are used such that you dip the nib in ink to write. Old school. **Q: what pen do you use these with?** A: This is a pen that you use for calligraphy. The nibs attach to the pen. All you need is ink and paper **Q: are these good beginner nibs?** A: Starter nibs set. They are quality that professionals will use. They have different levels of flex and pointed tip that is for copperplate type of inking. Beginners often start with manuscript pens. They are nibs of various widths and no flex. That is a different writing style. If you want to learn with a flexible pen, That's a good starter set. **Q: Can Sumi ink be used with this particular pen & nibs or does it have to be speed ball ink? Thx** A: I have used several quality inks and they seem to work fine. Not sure I have used Sumi ink. I always clean the nibs when i’m Done so they don’t dry up and clog. If the ink is thicker like for Japanese brush calligraphy it might not work. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value and lovely nibs to write with *by D***S on 9 August 2017* This is a lovely set at a very reasonable price.
