    I use these pencils to take notes during school, but I have to refill them quickly. I tend to press harder when taking tests so these pencils are impractical during test-taking circumstances, as the pencil may run out of lead just when you need it most. The pencil works well for note-taking, because highlighter glides smoothly over the writing and the lead from the pencil won't fade from the page like many competitors will. This pencil is a mixed bag, you just have to decide what YOU personally want out of a pencil.

    I ordered it mainly because I needed a color different than black, thinking that if it says assorted, I will get at least one other color. Both pencils came in black. Called and reordered it, it came again in black. [...] At the end, I just gave up hoping to get what I wanted.

                  Item 434348 is the .7mm version of the pencil. .5mm produces a thinner line than .7mm.

                You have a special - buy 2 get 1 free. This is a pack of 2. Can I only buy 1 pack to receive the other pencil free? Also, how do you choose the color of pencil you want?
