三菱鉛筆Mitsubishi Pencil 9000 HB 1 Dozen K9000HB

This is a great pencil. Writes very smoothly while holding a point fairly well. Not the best, but good for the price.

I bought these because my normal pencils kept breaking. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on the more expensive Mitsubishi pencils (those are like 2.50 each....) so I got these instead.They haven't broken yet after sharpening or writing.They keep a point.They're centered properly.Overall, just a very nice little pencil to use.

I REALLY like these pencils. They write very smoothly and are a great price. The fit and finish is excellent and they sharpen very smoothly with a Mitsubishi KH20. This is the third Mitsubishi Pencil I have tried; it competes well against the 9850 and the Hi Uni. I bought these pencils because I wanted an eraserless smoothly capped 9850, keeping the high fit and finish, dark line, and point retention. It performs almost identically to the 9850. I wanted this pencil to be a cheaper Hi Uni B but in HB while not sacrificing much, it has that in spades.One minor knock I do have against this pencil is the wood. The Hi Uni's are top shelf incense cedar (you pay for it), the 9850 is I believe cedar but of a lesser quality, and the 9000 is of a different species entirely. It may be some type of fir. If you want to get the most of these pencils I HIGHLY recommend getting a burr sharpener, as it will sharpen the softer wood much better than a quickly dulled blade sharpener. With my KH20 I don't even notice the lesser wood quality visibly or in use. Get one, do yourself a favor.If you want to know what the hubbub is around premium Japanese drawing/writing pencils - this is a great place to start.

This pencil has a strong incense cedar smell to it which I love. It's very fancy looking and writes like a dream if you have a soft touch. Really a lovely writing instrument.

These are decent pencils. Harder edge of the HB range. Good point retention. Doesn't smudge much.

Has a beautiful lacquered finish. The lead has a dry , quiet feel to it and is quite dark.

Considering I have and use most of the Mitsubishi woodcased pencils from the Hi-Uni down, I was surprised by the 9000 HB. This is my first time trying these, and I assumed it would be as silky-smooth as others across the Mitsu spectrum. This version has just a bit of waxiness - that "slight tight before the glide." It's just a bit, but if you're spoiled by other Mitsubishis (and better Tombows), you might not care for these. If you're used to inexpensive brands, you'll probably love it.

Gorgeous pencils. Shipped fast, just as described. Wonderful seller!
