I have one of those, too. It is hardly a great pencil but it has a really cool look to it. Worth its price, I think.

it's more like a desk pencil. i do not like the fact that doesn't have a clip or an eraser. the price is good!

hi. what kind of lead do you use in these? is it 1.1mm?

[lovemy51]

this is what i was using yesterday:

 

Brand: "National" (Vintage Combo)

 

uses 1.1mm B (soft) lead. i wish i can find something softer for the 1.1mm, but it is almost impossible. the one i've found was $10 for a tube of 15... neah, too expensive for me.

Hi,

 

I have my Staedtler Lumograph pencil today in HB. Many days, I like using my Lamy Scribble 3.15mm. It is one of the best thick leadholders I have seen. I also have a Uchida leadholder in 2mm. I'm a big fan of the kids pencil Faber castell makes. It has 1.4mm lead.

The only pencil I've handled today was a Blackwing 602, but I gazed affectionately at a Rhodia several times.

Today it was my black .5 Pilot Automac and S-20, tomorrow feels like a Platinum Pro-Use .3 and .5 kind of day. My favorite leads are Pentel AIN in 2B I have also started using the Nano-dia leads and they are very nice and smooth but with a little more smear.
