SUN-STAR Stationery S4482662 Metal Pencil, Metacil, Metallic Blue, Pencil Lead Color: Black F #2 1/2 (with Authentic Hologram Sticker United States Only)

I'm big on drawing, and typically traditional wooden pencils are my go-to. Mechanical pencils are nice for longevity, but their thin, straight lead isn't really intuitive for the intricacies of shading, line weight, etc. This is exactly what I needed. It's got all the pros of a wooden pencil, while also being durable, reusable, and STYLISH! The pencil itself has a very nice weight and feel to it, and makes a super satisfying scratching noise while writing, if you're into that stuff.

It feels just like a normal #2 pencil in your hand but a good amount nicer. The way it writes is just as you'd expect, but very lightly, it doesn't leave a very dark line behind, making it a little more difficult to read after than a normal pencil.

I love this concept. Unfortunately, the pencil slipped from my hand one of the first times I used it and the nib cracked in half. Without a smooth tip, it writes pretty poorly. Replacement nibs aren't cheap. Great when it works, but it's pretty fragile. Handle with more care than a standard pen/pencil.

First what I like about this pencil. What I like is that I don't have to keep sharpening or clicking to put more graphite out. I write kind of hard and tend to break mechanical pencil graphite. I also like that you can get replacements tips. So what I don't like... Well I don't like how thin it is but that can be fixed easily with a slip on pencil grip. It does write a little light compared to a regular graphite pencil but it is still perfectly legible. I don't like that it doesn't come with an eraser. Erasers are so cheap why not throw one in with a $15 pencil? And lastly I don't like that my point broke off because it slid right off my clip board and landed point first on a concrete floor. Please add some kind of clip to better secure the pencil. And also why are the replacement tips just as expensive as a new pencil? Conclusion, if you are going to use this at a desk or draft table with little risk of dropping on a hard floor then go for it. If you work out in harsher conditions like I do then it might not be the best choice.

The hardness factor is equivalent to a 3H pencil so it does write a bit lighter than some might prefer. I think it's a good trade for a pencil tip that isn't fragile. I especially like the body shape and the ease in replacing the tip in the future. The shape doesn't roll on a flat surface.

It was cool for the few times I was able to use it. Wrote well on paper one hard surfaces. Wouldn’t write on manila folders. Thought the tip would be strong, but too much pressure broke a small piece off. No biggie, do t write so hard I tell myself. Then the cup I keep pens etc. in on my desk fell, and the whole tip broke off. Would not recommend.

This feels like a classic wooden pencil. BE ADVISED 2H IS NOT THE SAME AS #2. A draftsman or artist would know this but those skills are seldom taught. 2His harder than #2 and writes lighter. If you want #2find an HB version.

Way too light for most applications. Good for laying out reference lines, but not for proper drawing or writing.

Good

Creo que es caro par alo que recibes

【良い点】 ・鉛筆を削る手間がいらない。思いついたことをパッとメモ書きできる。 ・鉛筆と違い、メタルの重みが心地よい。 ・「赤」を買ったけど、きれいな発色で気に入った。 【悪い点】 本当に薄い。筆圧にはあまり関係なさそう。ただし、薄いと他人からメモを覗かれにくいという利点もありそう。 筆記具に濃さを求める人は買わない方が吉。

Le "crayon à papier" le plus cher que j'ai jamais acheté ! Néanmoins, s'il tient ses promesses de "distance" d'écriture (si je ne le casse pas et si je ne le perd pas), je pense pouvoir le léguer à mon fils en héritage ! En terme d'écriture, c'est un crayon à papier, qui écrit, comme.... un crayon à papier. J'avais envie de me faire plaisir et jusque là, c'est réussi !

A good reliable writer.
