1904446 800 Retractable Mechanical Pencil, 0.7 mm - Black

Really solid and precise mechanical pencil - I love the twist open/close for the lead pipe too, which protects it from being bent when not in use.

Very nice pencil with 2b lead loaded. Is it worth the money? For me yes I write a lot and it gives me great pleasure using a quality tool

I use this pencil for office work and it’s easily the best mechanical pencil I’ve owned. It feels solid and premium because of the metal body, and it’s comfortable to write with for long periods. The weight makes it feel stable and controlled rather than flimsy. The standout feature for me is the retractable tip. It makes a real difference if you carry stationery around because I can put it in my pocket or bag without worrying the tip will bend or snap. That single feature makes it far more practical day to day than standard mechanical pencils, especially for commuting or moving between meeting rooms. Everything about it feels precise and well made, from the mechanism to the overall finish. It is more expensive than a basic pencil, but if you use it for work regularly it feels worth it because it’s reliable, satisfying to use, and built like something you’ll keep for years.

I’m a huge mechanical pencil fan, love them for drawing and note taking. Eraser in the end and you can withdraw the tip of the pencil to make sure it’s safe. Best pencil by a long margin and I’ve used it for 50 years

Without doubt, the best mechanical pencil I have ever bought. In fact I would go as far as to say it is the best writing tool I have ever purchased. The build quality is flawless. Solid metallic components everywhere. Really solid mechanism for revealing and retracting the tip. Loading can be a little fiddly and frustrating but this has been the case for every mechanical pencil I have ever had. I previously had one of these but the tip was bent by someone whilst I was away from my desk. Either that or the product failed. Replacement works just as well. Recommend the 0.7 over the 0.5 as 0.5mm Lead is very fragile and I found it breaks frequently. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

The retractable point is a two edged sword - it's nice to protect ones' pockets, but it simply doesn't support the lead as well as the fixed point of the 600, and so as a serious writing and drawing tool this falls a little sort of it's junior sibling. The lack of a lead grade indicator really consigns this pencil to 'more is less' status.

A very fine piece of engineering and retractable point.

No doubt if you are looking into a 45 quid pencil you'll be doing your research. And some of that will lead you to a lot of people saying that the retractable Rotring has a slight tip wobble (because it's moving parts). I've been using this daily for over a year now and it's still going strong. I'm a massive fidgetter so I'm constantly popping the nib in and out and taking the rubber protector on and off and it's still not gotten to a point where it's worn or damaged. This is my favourite pencil. It weighs a really nice amount for me and feels like a good bit of kit. The improvements I think it could do with are minor. The first is the little tab thing that you slide it onto shirt pockets and what not. I think this should not be painted. This area is the one that gets the most wear and naturally the paint chips. It'd made more sense to plain finish it. The second is the availability of the rubbers. The rubbers last ages but they are a little difficult to pickup, in the end I opted to go for the ones direct from their site because they are a special size and didn't want to get the wrong ones. Besides that though I really like the pencil. I'd definitely recommend it if you are looking to upgrade to a something proper.

Molt bé.

I often find myself with a mechanical pencil in my pocket and with the retractable tip you get a great mechanical pencil to write with and the tip won't get damaged or make holes in your pockets. Love this. I leave my 600 and rapid Pro at my desk and take the 800 with me in my pocket.

The best of the best. Tad expensive!

Tak jak w tytule, kupiony na prezent, obdarowany miał nie tęgą minę, dostał przedmiot używany, w środku pudełko oceniłbym tak 3/5. Jeden rysik prawie wypisany (1 z 3), do tego na ołówku widać rdzę! Serio? Niezły "nowy" ołówek, pogadam z obdarowanym czy nie będzie chciał go zwrócić, bo to są jakieś nie zdrowe żarty. Żałuje tylko że zdjęcia nie zrobiłem. Najadłem się wstydu tylko, nieźle amazon.

Excellent build (premium quality!!!). Got a black one, love the color scheme (with Gold tip). Retractable tip feature is very helpful (if you have the habit of dropping things!) Very happy that I bought it!!!!
