Most Helpful Positive Review

Greatest mechanical pencil on the market

Best mechanical pencil on the market. The sharp point is a little hard on newspaper, but that's OK because I do crossword puzzles in ink anyway. Otherwise, this is a great pencil that puts a good fine line on paper, whether you are taking notes or making sketches. I use these at home and at work.

Most Helpful Negative Review

Eraser holding problem

On several of these pencils, I have had the eraser slip down into the unit so that it can't be removed. I think the eraser holder needs a bigger shoulder.

Comments about Pentel Sharp™ Mechanical Pencils .5mm, Black Barrel, 2/Pack:

People think I am weird because of my devotion to the
P20- series pencils from Pentel, but I have never encountered a
better mechanical pencil. I personally own a pair of P205s and a
pair of P209s. I am hesitant to let anyone borrow one for fear of
pencil-napping! I draw with them, take notes with them, and write
with them. I have owned other design/mechanical pencils, but have
never found one better. Whether precision or expression is my goal,
these are perfect tools for the job.
