I can see the company takes great care in delivering great products to the consumer
I am using this not for it's intended purpose (tough I get the impression it would be a good product as an actual lead-holder).Instead, I use this, based on a YouTube clip I saw as a basis for a GREAT iPad stylus
Excellent product, very fast shipping with Amazon Prime
which way, I still love the Staedtler graphite and think it is one of the best products for sketching and drawing.
I enjoy the sharpener on the end and the fact that while it sketches light, it isn't /too/ light and the sketches are easy to erase
However, the sharpener isn't as easy to use as you would expect
The lead sharpener at the end works, though I've never really had to use it.
Also, unlike dedicated lead sharpeners out there, the sharpener on this pencil does not have a place to store the lead residue, nor a second hole to let them out
There's a lead sharpener at the "eraser" end of the pencil - which is really convenient
I use it everyday (the lead can smear) -- good quality
All Staedtler products are of great quality and their products design are
When my daughter began carrying a sketchbook I thought I would see if she likes it as well as I did
bought this for my husband to use while he draws and he loves it, the quality is good, it is nice and sturdy, and not very expensive.
Overall, this lead holder is a great value at its price, but if you're planning to use it "professionally" it might be a good idea to invest in a nicer sharpener and some good quality lead.
Love these pencils just word of advice blow out and empty the sharpening decide on the back before bringing it over your drawing but the feel is amazing and I like that the pencil is always the same length I almost use these exclusively for my photo realism drawings
Love the feel and weight of the mechanical pencil in my hand
The pencil feels solid in the hand with a consistent feel and length
don't go anywhere without this pencil... great feel, weight and quality
and I have not used it yet, but being a tactile person I find that already I don't enjoy the "feel" of the other one.
