You could hardly do better than to get this set
I have not bought this set but I'm familiar with their products. I love the oblique nib holder for Copperplate/Spencerian and any pointed pen work. When they say flexible nibs I assume they're talking pointed pen nibs. Here you are getting the 3 main types of holders. The crow quill is a small, delicate, fine straight holder for mapping (drawing) pointed pen nibs. I have seen so many calligraphy sets that really are not very comprehensive. They usually cover either broad edged (italic etc.) or pointed pen. This is the first one I've seen that covers both. You can use any type of ink with dip pens. I like using an acrylic ink such as Speedball, F W Acrylics etc. But you can also use lighter inks like Higgins Eternal. And it's really nice to have this storage case.

Great selection of drawing and lettering nibs
The Speedball metal Nibs are made in the USA. This kit has a good assortment of drawing and lettering nibs with 3 different types of dip pen nib holders. I tried this out with the Speedball SuperBlack India ink and it worked great for pen and ink sketching. I was afraid that the ink would drip, but as long as you tap it gently on the lip of the bottle to lose the excess ink, no drips! I like the different kinds of lines and line widths that the nibs let you create. And the dip pens make it super easy to use a variety of ink colors. Unlike fine liners, pressing harder or turning the nib can give you different types of lines. Nice addition to my fine liners for pen and ink.

This product looks great!
It's easy to use and very smooth. Would have been better if there was ink that comes with it.
