Questions & Answers
My 180-piece shipment arrived in perfect condition. The following is a quote from a 5mm HB that was delivered in February 2018: "Japanese lead, assembled in Mexico." BTW, good question, as more and more Pentel products are being phased out of the Japanese market.

So, I was previously using Kuro Togo's "premium" lead, but it was prohibitively expensive, so I decided to give this lead a try, and I'm glad I did. To be honest, I can't tell the difference; that "premium" lead wasn't particularly expensive. Regardless of thickness, durability, or writing quality. The only difference I noticed was that this one smudged a little more than the other, but not by much. So, if you're looking for a good lead, give this one some thought. There is no better option for the price and amount of lead you will receive. Don't fall for the "premium" ruse; believe me, it's not worth it. There isn't much of a difference between the two. This has everything that the premium leads have, but at a lower price. br>br> Also, if you found this helpful in any way, please hit the helpful button for me. Good luck with your day!.
This lead, despite its claims, is not dark. Pilot Neox graphite is far superior, and it writes extremely dark and smoothly. Although they are comparable in price, the quality of the leads is vastly different. I wanted to compare the two so I ordered both. Pilot came out on top by a long shot. I squandered four dollars. 00 on Pentel, but at least now I know which is superior and which lead I should purchase in the future.
From the smallest to the largest, I've got them all. three to nil 9 mm. Since beginning university in 1988, I've had at least two. They're really good. So, now that my children are old enough and are also being educated at home thanks to Covid, they are ready for their very own Pentel pencils. As an academic author who produces a large number of words each year, I use them to edit everything I write. More importantly, I began my career as a mechanical engineer at a time when we were still taught and required to draft by hand; these pencils are still in use! The lead is soft enough not to pierce the paper, but hard enough to last and erase easily. Over the course of 30 years, I've used a variety of high-end drafting pencils and leads. These are the ones I'd go to on a regular basis.
Since elementary school (thanks, Mom), I've been purchasing or, more accurately, using this lead. I go back and forth. 7 and . 5 lead. It appears that I am breaking more of the. I'm using the because it's a five-lead wire. Now there are seven of them. At work, I use it to take notes, and D uses it to keep track of his finances. My friends and I, D. br>br>Of the many pencils I own, my current favorite is the Caran D'ache Alchemix Mechanical Pencil - (4860) White 001)br>br> The lead glides across the paper smoothly, and there have been no breaks, which is always a plus. br>br>I would strongly suggest this lead to anyone who asked. To me, it's like the Toyota of lead; it's inexpensive and reliable.
Particulate matter appears to be present in some mechanical pencil leads, causing them to jump or scratch across the paper. It's in my Pilot Dr. Grip pencil (BEST MECHANICAL PENCIL EVER), which I use every day. 01/11/2017br>=========================================================================================================== The lead appears to be extremely brittle. Even light pressure causes it to snap. In addition, the lead appears to be full of small hard bits that catch on the paper and tear it. We switched to the Papermate brand (which is also available on Amazon) and have been very happy with the results.
Pentel HB 0 was ordered and received. 90 pieces of 5mm pencil lead (C25BPHB3- K6). When I use the lead, however, it is significantly lighter than any other HB I've tried. This is more of a H or 2H lightness, which I find to be too light. I'm not sure what the problem is because I've been using Pentel for a long time and have always found them to be dependable. At $4. I'm not returning it because it's only $75, but I'm switching to a different brand. Buyer beware. br>*Update 6/4/20: I tried a different lead from the pack, and it's a lot darker. It's close to HB darkness, if not completely dark. As a result, there could be some inconsistencies in the manufacturing process.
Since I was in middle school, which was probably around 2007 or so, I've used mechanical pencils, and these have always been my favorites. Some graphite refills squeak or break quite frequently for some reason. While I have heard this graphite squeak or make any other kind of noise besides that of general scribbling you get from writing on paper (any other brand would do that just as easily), I have never heard this graphite squeak or make any other kind of noise besides that of general scribbling you get from writing on paper, which is nice because even the tiniest squeak can drive you insane after too long. br>br>Also, the Amazon app suggests I mention "accuracy, warmth, or softness," and I'm not sure they understand what product they're asking me to review, but the refills are certainly "accurate," in my opinion. However, I wouldn't describe any graphite refill as being warm or soft.
I bought this after discovering that the rOtring lead I had bought for my new rOtring and Kuru Togo pens was $0. Each refill costs $25. The cost of this lead is $0. 04 for each piece And I'm not sure what the difference is. It's HB, and it's a little darker than the rOtring refills and the lead that came with my Uni Ball Kuru Togo when I first got it. I'm a skeptic when it comes to much more expensive writing implements, such as mechanical pencils or fountain pens, but it works just fine in the end. When you move beyond dirt cheap, there's a big jump up front, but it's all very incremental after that, with the price-to-improvement curve getting flatter and flatter as you spend more. To my mind, this lead is at the sweet spot in the middle of the curve for mechanical pencil lead.
