    Default Visconti Rembrandt calligraphy set

    I was wondering if anyone else has the Visconti Rembrandt calligraphy set? If so, what is your .5 nib like? I thought it was supposed to be a flexy italic nib but mine is a nail. Dan's write-up says "an extra-fine, highly elastic nib for English Script". Mine is EF and has the edge, but no flex at all.

    How many nibs does it come with? I thought there was supposed to be one "highly elastic nib" one medium and one italic?
    "What are moon-letters?" asked the hobbit full of excitement. He loved maps, as I have told you before; and he also loved runes and letters, and cunning handwriting, though when he wrote himself it was a bit thin and spidery.

    I think Doc Brown picked one of these up not long ago. See if he's got a review up yet.

    Yes, it comes with a round medium, a 1.5 stub (italic?), and the .5 italic.
