Mr. Pen Metal Mechanical Pencils Set, 3 Pack, 1.3 mm, Black, Ambidextrous, Refillable

I am mostly digital, but sometimes I prefer to go back to pencil and paper. I feel like I can think more clearly. And I lkke having a ‘saturation level’ with pencils so that they are easy to find. Finally, I like dark, bold marks with little pressure that erase cleanly. So, I had gotten into 9 mm pencils and wanted to try these.These feel nice in the hand. The weighted tip is nice. I replaced the HB lead with 2B lead so that it writes like a very expensive pencil, but the lead that it comes with is fine too. I carry it around with me as a backup as the pencil only carries one piece of lead . (One piece in a pencil is not a problem for me as they are long lasting and rarely break.)The eraser is ok. I wish it came with a white poly eraser, but if I forget and use this one, it’s ok. I like that it is not a puny one and that it comes with extra.Occasionally, the lead will get jammed. And I will take the pencil apart and remove it. It’s not a big deal for me because I see it as one of those rituals of writing - like of like sharpening a pencil or emptying the lead. (If I was that serious about being productive in the moment I would likely switch to a pen or a keyboard.)The draw for me is the kit itself. And the quality of the pens. I feel special when I use them and like I am capturing important thoughts. So, it’s fun. I am glad that I came across these.

Nice quality!Good weight and feel!Great price!These have replaced all my carpenter’s pencils

Took the first one out of the box and it didn't work. For $10 I figured I might as well see what I could do.There are five parts. The eraser holder that pulls off. The hex tube which unscrews from the grip. The grip unscrews from the point. The point unscrews from the pencil mechanism. The mechanism has a plastic part and a metal part. It is the metal part that you have to grip. On my pencil the mechanism wasn't screwed up snug to the point. I tighten it up, just snug. Put the rest back together. Ta Da! It worked. That took 5 minutes.Otherwise it's a nice pencil at a great price. It feels solid in my hand. The button extends the lead 2-3 diameters so no problems snapping the lead.I wish it had a lead sharpener. The industry seems to think that this size doesn't need one since there are none available. I think it should have one. If needs be I can use some fine sandpaper.

I do not have 1.3mm pencils, wanted to try. For the price this is a nice set, decent weight and balance, leads are soft and write well (note, at this size, there is no covering metal tube, the lead feeds directly out). Case is nicely done and comes with additional leads, erasers etc. Good value. My only real issue, and why not 5 stars, is that the actual body is plastic, and appears to be some kind of 3d print. See my photo where you can clearly see some kind of error in in the plastic print. The pencil actually is fine, and with care will be fine, however, if this were used in a more aggressive/careless manner, those plastic threads are not gonna hold. These are good for me, I take very good care of my stuff and am careful. If you are brute, you might want a more sturdy pencil. :-)

I'm a self confessed pen/pencil nut and this is my favorite mechanical pencil. It comes with extra everything. It's a heavy pencil compared to other mechanical pencils.It's different for sure. It has heft and the lead is a little bigger than most mechanical pencils.I keep several on hand and give to friends and family that I think will enjoy them.

These pencils are great; they are very sturdy and durable, though a little heavy at the tip, all the things included with the set are fantastic. The case is very nice and it comes with a mustache sticker and two nice cards. Overall, these pencils are very nice, friendly service and great cause to support, great value too.

Arrived in good condition sealed package. I needed thicker pencil to mark wood I work on. This thick lead pencils are perfect for my hobby. I can mark them and use the eraser to clear out any mistakes easily. The leads are smooth and does not break when marking on wood. The eraser clears out to expectations on wood. Grip is good for the pencil. I like it so far.

If you like the width of a well loved no. 2 pencil but hate sharpening them... Omg this is the pencil for you. It's durable it's comfortable and for myself I light a heavy pen or pencil so very comfortable. But be aware the lead can be a bit tough to erase if you are heavy handed.
