It writes well enough and is a good option to start practicing with calligraphy scripts. My only complaints are that (1) the ink flow can be heavy at times and the cartridge consumed rapidly and (2) so far I can't find a smaller nib size that will be compatible with the existing "pen". I'm using these pens for wedding invitations and I would like to utilize a nib smaller than the given "fine" 0.8mm.
