Best mechanical Pencil I have found
This pencil is great. The lead is thick so it does not easily break. The eraser twists to extend, which serves its purpose, but also provides something to fidget with while processing a challenging math problem. Lastly, the clip is well designed as it easily slides on and off of a dress shirt pocket or a crease of a polo. I recommend these pencils to all my coworkers.

Not what I expected
This pencil is not the usual Pentel twist erase, which I have been using for years. I though I ran into a really good deal, but the pencil is significantly thinner that usual, and the grip is much lower on the pencil, making it awkward to use. A true example of "you get what you pay for"

Our GO-TO Office Pencil
When we need a pencil in our office, this is the one we choose! We always keep extras around because the tend to sprout legs and run away with co-workers :)

I love this pencil! The 0.9 lead never breaks, and they’re not too expensive so I don’t mind losing them.

Best Pencils!!!!
I am a heavy pencil user and it has taken me years to find the right one.
Until now.
This pencil has strong lead. I use 0.9mm. Erasers are very sturdy. They don't pop off. If it gets low, all you have to do is twist.
I love them and you will too.

Can't get enough of these!
My boss writes really heavy and these are the only pencils that he has been able to use that the lead will not break. He also loses things very often, so we order these A LOT! :)

Durable & Good for Field Work
These mechanical pencils are favored by our personnel who work out in the field for their larger-than-average size (breadth) and their durability.

Twist-Erase Pencil .9
I love the .9 Twist -Erase pencils because the led doesn't break as easy. The entire function of the pencil is great and lasts a long time.

Pentel..A Great Mechanical Pencil!
I have been using Pentel mechanical pencils for more than 35 years. For most of that time I used the red barrelled PD349T Pentel, also a 0.9mm automatic pencil. That model, the tip used to come off in my pocket. Then after I had used the pencil for a while, when I was writing the lead pushed back into the pencil rather than being held steady by the pencil. This new Twis...
