Please make a metal 0.7mm option. Please! - I have found that I write with gusto and that can break the plastic on the 0.7mm model towards the tip, and then it requires a new device entirely, so at some point I tried "all metal" 0.5 after breaking 2 of the 0.7mm ones, and then noticed write away how much more frequently I was breaking lead and couldn't write the way I preferred very well. Annoyed, I decided I'll keep buying replacements for the 0.7mm "plastic" Kuro Toga until they wise up to making metal 0.7mm options. That’s a pencil I would pay $20 for. Review: Beautiful piece of engineering, Japan style. - I lived in Japan for many years and greatly enjoyed buying and using all of the wonderfully engineered tools, cooking implements, knives, consumer electronics, etc. Japanese people love precision and great clean design, and mechanical pencils ("sha-pen" in Japanese) are heavily used. By professionals, captains of industry, artists, and school children. My Japanese teacher turned me onto them, great for precision writing of Kanji. I think the Japanese affinity for them stems from the similarity to sumi-e (charcoal) writing implements traditionally used to write Kanji characters. I don't recall these Kuru Toga pencils from when I was there, I might have been using them all along and didn't realize what I had. Anyway, I just bought this one from desertcart and fell in love with it instantly. For a piece of consumer goods that costs less than $6.00 the engineering and design of this thing is a marvel. Might sound funny but it is beautiful to look at. Smoke translucent high gloss plastic barrel, neon green grip and eraser cap, chome-look tip, ridges molded into the end to make it easier to grip. The auto rotation/ auto advance of the lead works perfectly as expected. To test it I started writing and could not stop. The included HB leads are for me, the perfect balance of darkness and hardness. Silky smooth on the paper and they produce no dust that will smudge. I spent the day today at work, writing with a 0.5 mech pencil (not one of these, just a standard one) and the lead broke every 10 seconds literally. Snap, click to advance. Snap, click to advance. Snap, click to advance. Frustration. Got home, opened this up and just wrote a lot and have not broken the point once. Includes a starter pack of HB 0.7 leads and 3 erasers (one installed and two spares). The pencil itself had about 3 leads pre-installed so get this "starter set" and you'll be good to go for a long time. desertcart sells a 40- pack of the 0.7 leads as an "add-on" item for a couple of dollars if you spend more than $25. Love this sha-pen. Must. Concentrate. On. Not. Losing. It. ## Features - 0.7mm mechanical pencil with an eraser has a patented rotating mechanism that maintains a sharp tip - A 0.7mm #2 lead produces smooth lines that help you write clear text and create vivid graphics - Extra durable diamond-infused lead is stronger than standard lead, delivering strikingly dark marks - Refillable lead pencils are useful for school work, art projects and note-taking - Easily correct mistakes with a replaceable eraser - Convenient clip ensures that your favorite mechanical pencil is always at hand ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00BEYXGPC | | Additional Features | Refillable | | Age Range (Description) | Teen | | Age Range Description | Teen | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,880 in Office Products ( See Top 100 in Office Products ) #43 in Mechanical Pencils | | Body Shape | Round | | Brand | Uni-Ball | | Brand Name | Uni-Ball | | Closure Type | Retractable | | Color | Black/Gray,Black/Green | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 4,241 Reviews | | Drill Point | Medium | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00030246005408, 00070530005400 | | Grip Type | Ribbed | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Hardness | HB | | Included Components | 1 Mechanical Pencils | | Ink Base | Water | | Ink Color | Gray | | Item Diameter | 3.75 millimeters | | Item Dimensions | 0.63 x 3.75 x 7.63 inches | | Item Type Name | Pen | | Item Weight | 18.14 g | | Line Size | 0.7mm | | Manufacturer | Uni-ball | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Name | uniball™ KURU TOGA | | Model Number | 1858549 | | Pattern | Solid | | Recommended Uses For Product | Writing | | Style | 0.7 mm | | Theme | Cartoon | | UPC | 804993624348 070530005400 030246005408 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 1-Year Limited | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | | Writing Instrument Form | Graphite Pencil | | Writing Technique | pencil lead | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Teen - **Brand:** Uni-Ball - **Color:** Black/Gray,Black/Green - **Ink Color:** Gray - **Writing Instrument Form:** Graphite Pencil ## Images ![uniball™ Kuru Toga Mechanical Pencil Starter Kit, 0.7mm HB No. 2, 1 Pack | Patented rotating mechanism keeps tip sharp, diamond-infused No. 2 lead for dark marks, replaceable eraser, refillable - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51aQMfyqouL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does the 0.7 mm KuruToga have the same teeny and near useless eraser that the 0.5 mm version does?** A: Yes. The itsy-bitsy-teeny-weeny near useless little emergency eraser for the times when you forgot or can't find your good block eraser. That one. Near, but not absolutely completely, useless. Also very expensive to replace when you run out of them, so at that point you're better off buying a whole new pencil set. Which comes with more erasers. And buying another block eraser so you don't keep using the tiny erasers up. **Q: Is this pencil self feeding or do I have to click something to advance my lead.** A: This pencil is not self feeding, you advance the lead by pressing down on the eraser holder. I like the smooth grip on the pencil and the size of the lead. It is a winner in my book. I am a teacher so I use it a lot. **Q: What kind of erasers does this pencil take and where can you find the erasers for sale?** A: I try to use a separate eraser because refills seem hard to find. This is the only site I've seen, but I have no experience with them: http://www.smartimports.net/products/Uni%252dball-Pencil-Eraser-Refill-for-Kuru-Toga-Pencils.html **Q: How to you refill the leads?** A: The Kuru Toga lead refill is inserted by removing the eraser and inserting the lead refills. Return the eraser and plastic cap. Click pencil a few times to advance the lead. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I love these. Please make a metal 0.7mm option.

The smoothness of the diamond-infused HB #2 lead provides a comfortable writing experience, making it an excellent choice for students, professionals, and artists alike. The translucent barrel and ergonomic grip add to its appeal, allowing for both functionality and aesthetic pleasure. The inclusion of extra lead refills and erasers is a thoughtful touch, ensuring longevity without immediate additional purchases. Despite its high-quality build, the plastic body is a potential downside, as it may not withstand accidental drops well. Some users have reported cracks or breakage from relatively minor falls, which is something to consider if durability is a priority. Additionally, while the lead rotation mechanism is effective, it works best with print-style writing rather than cursive, as lifting the pencil frequently is required to engage the rotation feature. The eraser size is another minor drawback—while it erases cleanly, frequent users might find themselves needing replacements sooner than expected. Overall, this pencil delivers on its promise of smooth, precise writing, making it a strong contender in its price range. The combination of high-end engineering and practical usability makes it a great investment, especially for those who value a consistent writing experience. However, if you’re prone to dropping your writing tools or prefer a more rugged design, you may want to explore sturdier alternatives. ## Frequently Bought Together - uni-ball Kuru Toga Mechanical Pencil with 0.7 mm Lead Refills & Pencil Erasers, HB #2 - Uniball Kuru Toga Elite Mechanical Pencil Starter Kit with Gun Metal Barrel and 0.5mm Pencil Tip, 60 Lead Refills, and 5 Pencil Eraser Refills, HB #2, Office/School Supplies, Drafting --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/2616827-uniball-kuru-toga-mechanical-pencil-starter-kit-0-7mm-hb](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/2616827-uniball-kuru-toga-mechanical-pencil-starter-kit-0-7mm-hb) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-25*
