Replica 18Th Century Mechanical Pencil

[Paddler]

My better looking and more accomplished half gifted me with this replica pencil from Jas. Townsend and Son, Inc. The graphite stick is about 5 mm in diameter. It writes like a No. 2 pencil. The holder is from Victorian Trading Co. No affil. I thought you pencil enthusiasts would enjoy this.

That is a nice porte-crayon. You could put different grade leads in either end. Or shape them differently.

Very cool! Can you get replacement leads for the future?

I was going to let Paddler answer but...

The site advertises that they have replacement leads but I bet some other online stores and art supply stores do too. Jas Townsend is a great site and the people are super nice and pack their shipments well. I've done business with them before and will again.
