These pads are different colors depending on the lead size you choose (brown for .3 mm, grey for .5 mm, blue for .7 mm, and yellow for .9 mm), making it easy to identify which size of lead you're using.- The dual-action retractor advances and retracts tip for easy use

This pencil has a great weight and balance for daily comfortable use.

The heft takes a little getting used to, but I love the clip and retractable tip

Best mechanical pencil I have ever used or owned

It's possible to turn it to a point where it is too loose or so tight it gets stuck and requires use of pliers to free up

Outstanding for close detailed work, such as detailing the iris of an eye, the grip is very comfortable when using for long periods of time

Best pencil I have ever used, it is amazing!

This is the best pencil that I have used and have no problem recommending it to my friends, I even purchased one as a gift for a family member who was heading off to college to start his engineering program

Best mechanical pencil I have ever used

The .7 was perfect and i loved using

Quite simply the best pencil that I have ever used.

The lead(graphite, or whatever is used) has to be changed 4/5 of the way through, meaning you never can fully use the lead.

I enjoy using both

This is the best pencil I've ever used

One of the best drafting pencils I've ever used

It's the most durable mechanical pencil I've ever used

This is the best pencil I have ever used

These are some of he best mechanical pencils I have used, they write so smoothly and the clip is great.

Lastly, the pental graph gear seems stiff when using and I just don't like using this pencil

This is the best pencil I've ever used

I also love the use of rubberized colored dots on the barrel to let you know the size lead the pencil uses, and how the rubber dots make it easy to hold for long lengths of time

it’s a beautiful sketching pencil but about a couple of days in of using it the tip of the pencil starts retracting and no matter how gentile I

If the balancing point was a little lower it would be perfect, however this is still the best pencil I've used.

I feel fancy using it :pThe lead is great too

Has to be the most beautiful metal mechanical pencil that I've ever used

This is the absolute, most nicest mechanical pencil I have ever used

This is the best writing implement I've ever used

Unfortunately, the barrel that you twist to show which lead you are using is rather stiff

It has a bulkier feel that some may like, but I'm not used to it yet.

The knurled grip feels nice but can be a little abrasive to fingers if using for a long time

This is the nicest pencil I have ever used.

for long periods of drawing, several hours, it's the single most comfortable pencil I've used.

Best mechanical pencil I've ever used

I found myself really enjoying its use.

The lead almost never breaks when using this pencil.

Not to thrilled over this as I cannot tell if it has been used previously

This pencil is great!Pros:HeavyNice GripSturdy and will last you quite awhile as long as no one steals itconsit's cold lolI've used other mechanical pencils in the past but this one takes the cake.

My older Pentel Kerry models (which I would have bought in a second if they made it in 0.9 mm) lasted me 20 plus years of much harder use than these Graph Gear 1000 models
