Uni-BallKuru Toga Mechanical Pencil with 0.7 mm Lead Refills & Pencil Erasers, HB #2

This mechanical pencil stands out with its precision-engineered rotating lead mechanism, ensuring a consistently sharp point while reducing breakage. The smoothness of the diamond-infused HB #2 lead provides a comfortable writing experience, making it an excellent choice for students, professionals, and artists alike. The translucent barrel and ergonomic grip add to its appeal, allowing for both functionality and aesthetic pleasure. The inclusion of extra lead refills and erasers is a thoughtful touch, ensuring longevity without immediate additional purchases.Despite its high-quality build, the plastic body is a potential downside, as it may not withstand accidental drops well. Some users have reported cracks or breakage from relatively minor falls, which is something to consider if durability is a priority. Additionally, while the lead rotation mechanism is effective, it works best with print-style writing rather than cursive, as lifting the pencil frequently is required to engage the rotation feature. The eraser size is another minor drawback—while it erases cleanly, frequent users might find themselves needing replacements sooner than expected.Overall, this pencil delivers on its promise of smooth, precise writing, making it a strong contender in its price range. The combination of high-end engineering and practical usability makes it a great investment, especially for those who value a consistent writing experience. However, if you’re prone to dropping your writing tools or prefer a more rugged design, you may want to explore sturdier alternatives.

great pencil 10/10

I have had this for the past 5 years, it has been a great. This pencil writes amazing, hence why I havent switched. I just take notes so I have not used this for test taking or drawing. It had been a great value for me, the easer is okay. I use a another easer to help.

Excellent Japanese product,

Precision pencil takes a lot of frustration out of tracing and writing.

Great mechanical pencil!!! This pencil is lightweight and easy to use. Planning to purchase more.

Rotating the lead works surprisingly well, feels good in the hand. My go-to writing device.

Disappointed that the pencil is small and feels cheap; similar to Pilot G2 size and feel. It looks larger in the advertisement. The eraser is ridiculously small. I will stick with my Tul Mechanical 0.7 pencil that is longer and has a better eraser. I also swapped the led in this pencil with the led in my Tul, and there is less lead breakage.
