Mechanical Pencil, 0.5mm, Drafting Pencil, All Black, 925 35-05B

This pencil as the perfect weight and style for technical drawings and taking notes. I wish it had a built in lead sharpener in the cap though. I also replaced the HB lead with B. Still 5 stars. It’s my favorite pencil.

This is without a doubt the best pencil I’ve ever owned. Quality is to be expected with that price tag, but let me tell you- if you love stationery as much as I do, it is worth every penny. The writing is exquisitely fine, it is comfortable to hold. It’s sleek and very heavy for a pencil. I love that it comes with a tiny metal rod for clearing the barrel of broken lead. Would recommend.

Received in good condition. The .3 of this pencil has been a long time favorite of mine and I finally have the 2.0. Good.

Una preciosidad que da gusto usar. Resolutivo y con buen cuerpo, tiene un diseño que te dejará mirándolo cada dos por tres. La única contra que encuentro es que la punta no es retráctil por lo que hay que tener cuidado con los golpes o quedará inservible. Nada de qué preocuparte si lo guardas en un estuche rígido o si caso de ser mañoso le imprimes un capuchón protector en 3D (incluso los ha ya online). Terminé comprando sus otros dos hermanos del conjunto y ahora son mis portaminas de confianza para pintar en viaje.

I've only ever used 0.5mm mechanical pencils before. I went on a bit of a rabbit hole into mechanical pencils earlier this week, and decided to get a Staedtler 925 35-03B (black, all metal model) in 0.3mm. The pencil feels amazing in the hand. The knurling feels very secure between my fingers, while still being soft. It almost feels like tacky rubber, but it's metal. The build quality is outstanding. The balance of the pen is really good and feels really stable for writing or tracing lines. The pencil looks really good, too. The only thing that concerns me is the lack of a cap. The tip is thin and long, and since the pencil is hefty for its size, if I were to drop it the tip might bend. Would've been nice to have something to protect it included with it. I'll probably 3D print a small case for it so I can carry it with me instead of leaving it at home. In the meantime, I'll stow my cheaper Staedtler in my backpack. That aside, the first feel and uses were extremely positive.

Seems like a solid mechanical pencil. I think this is the best you can find in this price range. It gives you a better feeling than the -10 euros mechanical pens available, while not being too expensive. I am satisfied with the color too.
