worth it!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 10, 2023

Style: 0.7mmVerified Purchase

This is the best pencil I’ve had! It is pricey but worth it. I use it for school work and note taking and love it. The grip is a lot better than most pencils. I love the look too. I’m not much into drawing but I could definitely tell this would be great for someone who does so.

A well-Designed Pencil for Ergonomics and Handling

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 27, 2022

Style: 0.5mmVerified Purchase

The Pentel GraphGear 0.5mm works very nicely for handwriting, as well as sketching because it produces very fine lines. The pencil also feels very good ergonomically, and it also has a very good grip for holding.

I would definitely recommend this pencil to anyone who wants a well-designed pencil.

Excellent pencil

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 31, 2022

Style: 0.5mmVerified Purchase

I actually really love this pencil and it's so funny that it came the same day my other pencil ran out of lead. It makes it so more comfortable to draw because of the lead size and gets those tiny details. The only downside to the pencil is; the eraser. Once it get short and you need to push it up to get more out, it is very and i can't stress this enough very difficult. It felt like the gods were playing a cruel trick on me by only letting a 0.2mm slowly come out of this bastardize pencil. Really love it!

My holy grail for my shop projects

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 3, 2022

Style: 0.7mmVerified Purchase

I've been trying different ways to mark things I've built ni my shop. My old reiable has been th Dixon Ticonderoga. Some of them are 30 yeaars old and still kicking. I've tried carpenters pencils, sharpies of all size tips and the 2mm mechanical pencil (drafting pencil) which was my recent favorite. Plus, I've used other pentel products successfully back in my art days.

This .7mm is what I've been looking for. Paired with non-photo blue lead like this: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00Z64IO62 makes my life easier. The extended drafting tip fits in all my marking devices and lets me get that line right up to my straight edge reliably. Normally I'd have used my pile of .5mm pencils I collected over time, but I've found that size is just a hair too fragile and breaks more often than .7mm. The knurled grip is easy to hold and isn't too aggressive as to be unconfortable after using it all day. The body is a dark blue that does blend in with other items in the shop, so a wrap or two of fluorescent artists tape helps with locating it (so does putting it back in the pencil cup).

At $7 it was a pricey gamble but I'd do it again. I'm really pleased with it, for it being just a mechanical pencil.

All leads in pencil arrived broken within the pencil. Also not great value as there are only 2 leads in the chamber. Would not recommend. Oh and for some reason returns are not accepted
