Review: Superb mechanical pencil. - Art tutor here. This pencil is my go to. I have two, one for HB and one for B. That’s all I need. The added eraser is extremely handy. One thing that makes it for me is that the lead is safely tucked away by the release lock which doubles as a pocket clip. I’ve dropped it many times and is extremely robust. I like the weight of it and fits my hand perfectly. The standard leads are spot on as always. Not ease to replace the leads but with patience it’s fine. Drawing is great with these.
Review: Fab pencil - Great pencil, very techy! Good sturdy, heavy pencil. Fab for sketching.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: where does one find the instructions for this mechanical pencil?**
A: If there is a broken piece of lead stuck inside, or a short piece, you cannot get lead to advance, or reload new lead. There is a fine pin stuck to the inside of the eraser. You can remove the eraser and use this to clear any broken lead.
When the pencil is completely assembled, depress the top as if you were going to advance the lead. Extremely gently insert a new lead, while keeping the top depressed. I always load my 0.3 pencils from the writing end, since the lead is so fragile.
All brands of 0.3 lead pencils are difficult, for most people a 0.5 or 0.7, is better. This is probably the best.

**Q: I don't see the eraser.,..   How easy is it to expose it?  Can you leave the eraser exposed? I typically always do that...**
A: The eraser is located under the silver cap at the top. Being a drafting pencil, the eraser is very small (~4mm) and is designed for fixing small mistakes without erasing anything else. For erasing most mistakes, I would suggest a separate eraser such as the Pentel retractable click (http://www.amazon.com/Pentel-Eraser-Retractable-Assorted-ZE21BP3-K6/dp/B001HA77OO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1453514031&sr=8-1&keywords=pentel+retractable+eraser) or the Pentel Hi-Polymer Block Eraser (http://www.amazon.com/Pentel-Hi-polymer-Block-Eraser-ZEH10BP3-K6/dp/B001Q4HQVU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1453514058&sr=8-1&keywords=pentel+hi+polymer+eraser)

**Q: Some people say that since the tip is retractable it can become wobbly while writing. Anybody else have this problem?**
A: Wobbly may be a bit of an exaggeration but there can be a bit of movement in the tip.  I have a two Graph Gear 1000's, one tip has no movement and the other has maybe a 1/2 mm movement.  The movement is imperceptible while writing though, at least for me.

**Q: Is this mechanical pencil comfortable when used to write for long periods of time? Thanks in advance for any answers.**
A: I use it all of the time and find it quite comfortable.  I'm taking multiple classes and use it as my only writing implement in every one- note-taking as well as homework.Good luck!Sam

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent mechanical pencil
*by A***M on 10 August 2013*

I actually did quite a lot of research before buying this pencil. As an engineer I have used a lot of mechanical pencils over the years, all of which have been relatively cheap models purchased from local stationery shops. When I was looking for a new one I decided to see if there was anything out there a little nicer than what I was used to. Well, my eyes were opened! I guess I shouldn't have been surprised that there are a multitude of websites dedicated to mechanical pencils (or clutch pencils if you hail from the USA). The most helpful site I found was Dave's Mechanical Pencils. He is a kiwi who has reviews of hundreds of pencils. It is clearly a labour of love. On to this particular pencil. I was attracted by the good looking aluminium body, build quality and the neat mechanism by which the tip retracts when not in use. I have been stabbed a number of time by mechanical pencils, so it is great to be able to retract the sharp tip and know I am safe with the pencil in my trouser or shirt pocket. I have found the grip to be really good - it is a mix of knurled aluminium and rubber dimples. In use this provides a solid and comfortable grip. The mechanism for pushing the lead through works well and seems reliable. The rubber works as you'd expect and it is useful that you can buy additional rubbers for the end at a reasonable price through Amazon also. It isn't the cheapest pencil out there, but it is also far from the most expensive. Considering the style, quality and utility I'd say this is excellent value for money. If I ever lose mine I'll certainly be buying another one!
