Pentel P1037-A-HB Mechanical Pencil Kerry Metal Casing HB 0.7 mm Black

1. It works, consistently and reliably2. It's beautiful

I'm really pleased with this pencil, which is stylish and well made. The removable cap is unusual for a pencil, but it's nice to use and gives the ultimate in pocket safety. It's a great choice if you're looking for a bit of quality in a writing pencil but don't fancy shelling out for, say, a Caran d'Ache Ecridor.My one criticism is that it's a bit rattly. The eraser is definitely for emergencies only, especially given that you have to remove two caps to get to it.

Great pencil, nice weight, quality feel

Very nice quality mechanical pencil, slightly on the small size but I am not displeased.

Perfect design. I discovered these maybe 20 years ago and I have never wanted for another mechanical pencil. Unless you have some sort of specialty needs in a pencil, you are probably going to be happy with this purchase. Quality product at a reasonable price. Does everything you want a pencil to do and also stows nicely and on top of that it looks classy. If you lose it, no big deal, they're $15. If you don't lose it, it'll probably last the rest of your life.

Well built, sturdy, and it looks good too!The only small issue I have is that it is difficult to remove the small cap covering the included eraser. But it can be done.I opted for the 0.7 lead size, and am pleased with the choice. I find the 0.5 lead in my other pencils is just a bit too prone to breakage. That doesn't happen with this Kerry, and the line is still thin enough to be good for writing.I don't draw and so cannot comment on this pencil's usefulness in that field.Well worth the purchase price.

Finishing is excellent and the lead is of superior quality. It looks like a fountain pen and can be clipped to your pocket. When the cap is posted on to the barrel, it gives excellent balance and weight. I simply love this mechanical pencil.

Ottimo e bello questo portamine. Appena mi è arrivato mio figlio me lo ha "catturato" per quanto è bello e robusto!!! Poi ha un sistema di fuoriuscita della mina molto originale: il portamine si apre togliendo il cappuccio e inserendolo sull'altra estremità del portamine, poi basta premere sulla sua estremità e la mina fuoriesce!!! È più facile farlo che spiegarlo. Lo raccomando perché è bello, è ben fatto ed ha una costruzione robusta e ineccepibile!!! Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo.Da acquistare!!!

Petit mais bien penser et esthétique. Mine de 0.7 protégée par le capuchon. Bonne prise en mains, une partie antidérapante. Le montage est simple mais efficace.
