I use mechanical pencils a lot, and have used a different Pentel .9 mm pencil for a long time. I also use a big variety of quality non-mechanical pencils. I use all these pencils for both writing and sketching. This pencil, however, is the best I’ve used. It’s barrel is thicker, with a rubber grip, which makes it very comfortable to hold. It’s just the right weight and heft to feel good in the hand. It has an easy feed mechanism… and a terrific, very effective eraser that you simply twist to extend whenever it starts to wear down. They’re very reasonably priced. I bought two so I could have both HB and 2B leads available. It’s hard to imagine a better designed, more useful, easy to use writing instrument! I’ve already given some as gifts.
