Hi-Graph 4 mm Fixed Barrel Mechanical Pencil 0.3 mm Red

Good quality mechanical pencil with a nice weight. The fine lead is quite strong and gives a sharp, consistent line without the need to sharpen. There is also a replaceable eraser making this makes it ideal for sketching. I've bought more, plus different lead hardnesses to make a great travel set.

I needed a second set of pencils for College, one set to hold 2b leads and another to hold B leads, so I needed the pencil sets to look different from each other to save confussion. This pencil comes with one HB lead. It holds it's grip on the lead, with no slippage. The pencil feels nice in the hand. Is well balanced and has a little bit of weight behind it. The eraser under the cap, wears down quickly but can be useful if you haven't got a seperate eraser to hand. The pencil looks good and is solidly made, not like a cheap pencil. To retract the lead after uses, press the cap down and push the lead back in. This makes it pocket friendly. You can also get other size pencils in this range. 0.3mm 0.5mm 0.7mm and 0.9mm. These pencils are value for money. Good for School or College. (My other reviews will say the same about other pencils in this range).

If I click the top of the pencil, lead comes out and I can write! It's so much better than the old style pencil, where one has to insert it into a "sharpener" and twist until wood shavings come out and magically make the end sharp. I decided to get one of these pencils when the traditional pencil I had became too short to fit into the "sharpener" and I "sharpened my finger". My legal case with HB has stalled due to my lawyer's inability to find a pencil company called HB. This pencil will never get shorter. I have "sharpened" it twice now and the wood slivers have not yet been seen, so the pencil should be good for a few years. Since finding the button on top that makes lead come out of the end I have not even needed to use the "sharpener" Awesome what technology can do.

The pencil itself has an amazing build quality as you would expect with Pentel products, however I found that 0.3mm lead snaps way too easily and it has quite a long and fine point on the end on the pencil which isn't so good for pockets. Impressed with the product but 0.3mm is just too sharp and makes notes illegible. I choose 0.3mm upon purchasing because I wanted a sharp pencil compared to conventional ones, but it proved to be too sharp for me. Went for a 0.7mm Faber-Castell instead which gave still relatively sharp but thicker lines with lead that doesn't break, so unless you really need a pencil for fine detail, I'd recommend you to go for thicker lead. I must stress the product itself is good, only let down by the lead thickness.

I hate myself for using Amazon so much. It really pains me but this was the only place I could get a 0.3 pencil!! I went to at least five different art shops in my locality and no joy! It hurts me to think that my buying a retractable pencil puts a rich man into space-ish. That said,it’s a good pencil at a good price.

This is a really nice mechanical pencil. I use it to help draft out my calligraphy. It writes smoothly and erases well. The barrel itself is quite comfortable to hold. The lead and eraser are easy to replace. I would happily buy this mechanical pencil again if this were to ever give out.

I bought this mechanical pencil for my artwork. I needed something that would give me a nice fine line when I draw so that when I need to erase the lines it would leave no trace on my piece of art. I used it on three occasions only and on the third occasion, the lead would not come down the pencil. I thought it was empty at first but it was still full and it looks like a piece of lead has jammed in the barrel...or so it seems. Anyway I contacted the seller and havd been promised a replacement but to date all i have been sent are packs of refill leads! The pencil was not good quality if it can jam with the original leads in it straight from the seller. I have complained to the seller but they seem to be inept and unable to replace the pencil, despite repeatedly stating they would do so. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. THE PENCIL IS POORLY MADE IN MY OPINION.

Light in weight, nice balance and comfortable to hold. Has a really good positive action that feeds out a small amount of pencil lead and feels and looks well made as my other Pentel pencils are. A good buy that should last years.

I have been using this pencil for 20 years. It’s never go wrong with them. Love it, love how comfortable to drawing my wedding designs.

J avais strictement le même modèle il y a 20 ans. Pas cassé, mais perdu, je l ai racheté. J apprécie son poids et sa durabilité . Fiable, en somme...

Dobra jakość.

Kalem cok hafif, elde yokmuş gibi, bu nedenle uzun sure kullanimlarda tercih edilebilir. ben steadtler mars micro kaleme alisinca ilk basta biraz agirlik aradim elimde ancak 1-2 gun icinde alistim ve simdi bu kalemi elimden birakamiyorum. Dışı plastik, mekanizma ise metal. Her basmada ucu 0,4 mm kadar dışarı itiyor, gercekten mekanizma çok hassas bu konuda. Uç kırmıyor, dikey olarak ne kadar bastirirsaniz bastirin uc icine kaçmıyor. Kalem icine 20 tane yedek uc rahatlikla konulabilir. Ucundaki igne seklindeki metal icine girebiliyor olsaydi tasimasi rahat olurdu ancak uç kısım sabit. 2022 Haziran - Ekleme: 0.3 kalem uçları çok pahalandı, 1 tüp uç (içinde 12 adet tek uç var) 10-15 liraya satılır oldu, çocuklara sürekli kullanım için almıştım ancak uç fiyatları nedeniyle aynı kalemin 0.5'ini alacağım.

Güzel yazıyor
