Wood, pink Hello Kitty pencil I found laying around work.

The crossword in the I newspaper has got a bit trickier recently, so I've had to stop doing it in pen and reverted to my trusty Jotter fligher pencil. A classic design!

A Pentel Sharp Kerry, 0.5mm. I don't know what the lead is, it's whatever came in the pencil, it's new.

I got this one as a gift a few days ago (chrome knob):

It's a Schneider iD 0.9mm pencil. It has an ergonomic rubber barrel and an interesting oversized clip. The mechanism works by rotating the knob about 1/4 of a turn at a time. It's very nice...

Beautiful. A really nice shape.

About the 2B lead, please post or PM me the link -- I've been looking for some for an Autopoint I got recently (executive/48, I believe; love it) and so far I only found two in current production and both are HB, which means nothing until you've tried it. Thanks in advance.

Today: a Mitsubishi Hi-Uni HB and a Palomino Blackwing 602. I also like the Tombow Mono 100 HB.

 

I use Staedtler 8Bs to write on the back of paper I'm developing in the darkroom.

 

You use exactly the same pencils as me. Just not a Staedtler, I use the Tombow 6B or the UNI 6B and I do so for the same reason - in the darkroom. Seems, we have a lot in common

[Moxoftritonytes]

Today I`m using a Rotring Art Pencil with 2mm lead.

[lovemy51]

lately i've been using my Autopoint matte black with .9mm 2B lead -awesome retro look and great performance!
