    Uni Mechanical Pencil, Kuru Toga Pipe Slide Model 0.5mm Lead, Black (M54521P.24)

    • Really like the way the pencil protects/reinforces the lead to keep it from breaking
    • main attribute for me is the retractable lead pipe, which means it doesn’t snag clothing.
    • The reason why I really disliked using pencils is because the lead never seemed fine enough and writing seemed inconsistent
    • Lead doesn't break all the time like in cheaper pencils.
    • I tried buying the uni brand kuru Toga 0.5 lead and still not working
    • I'm trusting the other reviewers who say that this pencil's unique torquing mechanism does wonders for keeping the lead sharp and not elongated at the tip, though I can't say I've seen a huge difference myself yet
    • The lead breaks much easier in comparison to my older Kuru Toga pencil when pressure is applied at an angle
    • 0.7 lead works best for me, but I like the color and style of this pencil
    • 0.7 lead works best for me, but I like the color and style of this pencil
    • has always been a key feature, allowing for a consistently sharp lead.
    • It will likely break your lead, rendering the torquing action unworkable
    • Always have a Sharp lead with the Kura Toga.
    • Finally, a mechanical pencil I can use and not constantly break the lead
    • but I haven't broken the lead
    • Lead is very slow
    • The rotating action doesn't seem to make a huge difference in keeping the lead sharp and the eraser is way too small
