Nicpro 2mm Mechanical Pencil Set, 3 PCS Artist Propelling Drafting Clutch Pencil 2.0 mm for Art Drawing Writing Sketching with 6 Tube HB & 2B Refill, Eraser, Sharpener, Propelling Lead Holder

Now a few points that impact my review. I’ve always preferred writing in pencil than pen. I have a tendency to break the lead too often on thinner propelling pencils. I therefore tend to use standard wooden pencils to take notes as I’m old enough to want to write my notes rather than type on my phone.But I had a need for mobile note taking outside and kept kept losing the pencil as it wouldn’t just clip on to the pad. So the obvious answer was to look to an old fashion clutch pencil with the thicker lead.Well as with just about everything nowadays this gives me a huge choice at varying price points to pick from. While this set actually works more like a propelling pencil but for 2mm lead, it gave me 3 pencils with plenty of replacement lead at a good price with decent reviews to it was worth a try.Having received I would have to say I’m happy I tried. The pencils are comfortable to use, they write well for me with no breaking leads and I have 2 spares without even having to replace the lead yet. I also haven’t found myself without a pencil when I need it as the one I’m using clips securely to my pad.So good price, good product and my needs being met fully.Yes inside I still go for the traditional wooden pencil, and if I need something permanent out comes a pen, but that’s personal likes and need. Out and about note taking in the old fashion style I prefer is now met with this and doing the job well, so I have no justification not to give 5 stars.

Update after a year of owning these and they still feel like brand new!They've really progressed my drawing and they are also fantastic for writing and taking notes which I do a lot of!Buy them, you just can't go wrong for the money and you get enough spare-leads to last you for years!I'm very impressed with these pencils!They sit perfectly in my hand and are absolutely brilliant for drawing, sketching and shading. Slightly thicker than a pencil and nice and light. The action works very well and grips the lead well with no slip.The leads are great. Very strong and easy to sharpen to a razor-fine point and they hardly ever snap.The leads have great tonal-values too and blend beautifully. The leads in the pack are HB and 2B but my pencils also came with a slightly darker lead already installed maybe a 3B or a 4B which was a lovely bonus!In terms of value for money, they're are amazing!3 pencils, 6 packs of leads, a decent eraser and the world's smallest but very effective pencil sharpener for less than a fiver!Delivery was quick with no problems at all.I used to draw with an older automatic pencil with the very thin leads but I now prefer these to my drawing pencils, I'm converted!

Good peice of kit , and a great supply of leads and rubber / erasure and lead sharpener, whis I'd gone for metal option as feel light, but this is just a preference , pecils are good build and I'll use them often

These fit perfectly in your hand and the shape of the body makes it comfortable and grippy. Sharpener works a treat and im going to keep them hidden away before colleagues see and nick them. For me they are excellent value

incredible value for money and quality . 72 refills! half coloured half black. I don’t know if i could use this many in my whole life.

Arrived promptly. Good value for money. Seems to be a good product. Comfortable to use.

Growing up, I think we get so accustomed to them cheap mechanical pencils with the ultra thin lead that break under the slightest of pressure then write them off as a bag of doo-doo. This set however puts a bit of faith back into Pencil humanity. The leads are thick. You get an abundance of refills and it’s nice to be able to have coloured nibs of you need/want them. I have used them for a project and I am happy with them.The only downside are the pencil sharpeners…not so useful in this set as it chips the lead as it sharpens. Also they are very plasticky and light weight. They have the look of metal though. Overall, good purchase :)

Great value for money - bought as a birthday gift for my DGS who's loving them to draw/sketch with!
