Pros & Cons
Pros
I'm a bonefide * for a great mechanical pencil and this is my current favorite. These are the best moderately priced pencils i've ever used.
The grip is not super soft but it seems to be made partially out of silicon so the pencil itself can collect dust which isn't that big of a deal. The clip is very strong and will not fall off from whatever it is clipped to very easily. Its fully retra... Read More
Love the retractable eraser. The lead feeds smoothly and the eraser works very well. The eraser is small enough to erase a small variable in an equation, or to fix a small stray mark.

Highlights
Quality
Ive been using tul writing instruments for many years their quality is never lacking
Ive always liked the quality of tul and will continue to use them for drafting and sketching
Shipping
And with prime i got it with 2 day free shipping
Packaging/appearance
Fits my suit pocket without the tip getting caught in the lining
They don’t come with much lead and there’s no additional in the packaging
The second one i got in my pack is still in its packaging waiting to be used and i doubt i will need to for a few more years
I was skeptical when i first took them out of the package because they’re kind of big compared to other mechanical pencils
Competitiveness
These are spendy pencils but i love them
I love them and all other tul products

Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Something that had a retractable barrel comfortable grip twist eraser with a lot of rubber instead of the emergency erasers the size of an atom in a lot of mechs durable and it had to either have no clip or the length of the pencil meant that the clip didnt get in the way
