Pilot The Shaker Mechanical Pencil, 0.5 mm

Amazing pencil, classic design, right weight, have been using it for over 20 years and buy them again and again because I somehow manage to lose them.

This cult mechanical pencil was my go-to for over 20 years until it finally gave out (I dropped it). After a long search, I decided to try the new model. What's better: The metal tip is longer now, adding extra stiffness. The shaker mechanism is improved—you no longer need a hard shake to slide the lead. What's not so good: The push button is shorter now. I accidentally pressed it, and it shot out, sending a lead and the eraser flying across the room. Overall, the new model stays true to its original design, and every penny is well spent—definitely a step above other metallic-frame mechanical pencils. This one remains top-notch. Thanks, Pilot, for continuing to craft this piece of art.

Perfect! A very expensive mechanical pencil for a plastic item but I must say that for me has became an irreplaceable over the years. Reliable, unbreakable, just the right shape and the right fit for my hand, light enough but still sturdy... I had my first one when they came out to the market and this is my forth (I still keep one in perfect condition after 10 years of use and a misplaced one that I hope to find at some point), I have never seen one breaking, I’m afraid I loss them in moves or someone borrows and never returns them back :] I was trying to find it for years as I thought Pilot stoped making them and I am ecstatic I found it. Now I can take one around and be sure that the other is still safe at home. Of course a fantastic service from Amazon as usual. Very happy!

Best mechanical (vintage) pencil.

The best mechanical pencil ever made

I bought mine in 1987, still in perfect condition, used regularly. I bought a replacement 6 years ago, just in case, but haven't needed it yet.

I bought this very same pencil when I started studying Architecture 30 years ago, and I continued using it until last year, when it broke in two. I had searched everywhere for it until, on a recent trip to Sweden, I discovered that it was here. I hope it will accompany me for the next 30 years.

Süper bir uçlu kalem.

Essa lapiseira é perfeita para todos os tipos de pessoas que necessitam de um lápis de qualidade tanto para desenho ou para a escrita, costumo utilizá-la no trabalho e nunca me decepcionou. A entrega foi super rápida, adiantaram três dias do tempo de entrega.

Just as good as the one I purchased years ago.

Este lápiz es mi favorito; lo usé todos los años de universidad (hace mucho tiempo) y ahora lo compré para mi hija que está estudiando ingeniería. El mejor que tuve, y a ella le resulto muy my util.
