Very good product, Japanese vinyl for linocuts. My well packaged purchase arrived very quickly and postage was reasonable. The company was a pleasure to deal with and I will be using them again.

I was looking for Ternes Burton registration pins for reduction printing, but it seems that they are no longer available. Luke at Hickman Designs was super helpful in explaining how their own version is a perfect alternative. Very fast delivery, too!

I wanted to start doing linoleum prints and after doing some research, I decided to order my supplies from Hickman Design and I didn't regret that. There were during the order-shipping process and when I received the items I noticed were carefully packaged. Everything so far has been of great quality and will definitely order again!

I absolutely love my new registration board, I’ve tried making my own in the past but nothing ever compares. I’m already looking into more products.

Incredible customer support! I ordered registration pins & tabs. The tabs are thick and really nice while the pins are strong, but elegantly thin and crafted really well. I’m thrilled to have them in my toolkit.

A wonderful experience from start to finish. Hickman Design has a fantastic range of printmaking supplies, and I was delighted with the quality of the Essdee lino sheets and Japanese rubber brayer I ordered. The service was incredibly speedy, delivery was quick, and everything was carefully packaged with obvious care and attention. It’s always lovely to support a business that clearly values both its products and its customers. As someone rediscovering printmaking, I really appreciated being able to find quality materials in one place. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be back for future supplies.

Excellent service from Hickman Design — really impressed with the speed of delivery and the quality and pricing of products. Customer service was outstanding, even replying helpfully out of hours, which made a huge difference on a tight turnaround. Great value across all your printing needs and a genuinely helpful company to deal with. Highly recommended!

I found Hickman Designs via another printmaker online as they mentioned a new sharpening tool set they had discovered. I was fed up with paying to have my tools sharpened and as she mentioned she had purchased the EZ Care set from Hickman who were new to me I clicked on their website. Whilst ordering the sharpening set I found an amazing pair of Skull Scissors which I had to have along with some Cranfield safe wash printing ink. Hickson delivered free and quickly and I was really pleased with how the sharpening set worked especially as it will save me money. Will definitely use Hickman Designs again.

I purchased a set of 5 Pfeil lino cutting tools (Colin Blanchard set) and Cranfield Caligo inks for my daughter. My order arrived very promptly and my daughter was delighted with the tools and inks. She says they are a pleasure to use and have enabled her to improve her technique create some lovely designs.

Bought some lino printing bits from here. Perfectly packaged, arrived undamaged, prompt and actually helped with some advice on some new techniques. The more specialist tools really made a difference to my work.
