This pencil is very well built and feels premium, but I do not use it much anymore as it is a bit too heavy in the hand for me to write with, and I prefer to use pencils with better erasers

As to that retractable tip, it may seem like an extravagance, but I like long sleeves in my pencils as I draw with a fair bit of pressure and it helps keep my graphite sticks from snapping.

I found the lead would break off quite a bit when writing, which is aggravating

I think that for long periods of time, the grip might be a bit too hard for me - so I'll just take breaks because this one is a keeper.

Exactly what I was looking for, it feels very well made, a bit

But in my opinion it looks a bit gimmicky dispite it being metal and to stylized for a mechanical pencil

Much better to pay a bit more for a pencil that will last years than less for a bunch of cheap, easily broken ones.

Smooth writing and just a bit thicker than regular mechanical pencils

Now, here's where things get a bit strange, in a very good way

My only complaint is that I like the lead out two clicks, and at that amount of lead extension, it sticks out just a tiny bit when the guide pipe is retracted

A bit annoying to remove

Very disappointed works a little bit and constantly breaking the leads ,they are very well made however I must be doing something wrong first the number 3 now the number

I found the lead would break off quite a bit when writing, which is aggravating

it's a bit hard to put onto your shirt pocket if you have a sweater.

The grip gets a bit uncomfortable after long usage

while this pencil doesn’t solve that problem, it does make it a little bit more comfortable to write.

Loves i!

Also the extend/rectract action is just so satisfying to use when I my hand needs to fidget.

I bought the 0.5mm use with Pentel HB lead as I like the darkness of it when I use it for drawing and shadowing
