## Description

Do you prefer using pencils but fear they’ll break when it matters most when out taking field notes? You're not alone. The Rite in the Rain Mechanical Pencil may well be the last pencil you'll ever need to buy. True to the Rite in the Rain brand, this pencil is tough, reliable, and writes no matter what. A hefty 1.3mm lead is not only tough, it writes smoothly on Rite in the Rain and other papers.

Review: Solid, works well, a little heavy, buy lead separate - super cool! feels heavy, but weighs 0.9oz on the scale if you're counting those things. It does not come with any extra lead. I like the thick lead, it pairs really well with the water resist note books.
Review: Great pencil, but be careful about security - Writes really well, but the black lead tends to smear and can be difficult to erase with normal erasers. The eraser on back of pencil seems to work just fine though. The red lead refills don't smear, but they also don't erase. Comfortable to write with for long periods. Super durable and simple design that just works really well. Would be nice if there was a lead pointer available that works with this size lead. Overall, well worth the extra cost over regular lead pencils. Be careful about going through airport security or security at government buildings. When my backpack went through a scanner, I had some of these pencils inside, and they looked like loose ammunition on the scanner. The security guards who pulled me aside were initially rather freaked out, but they thought these pencils were pretty cool after they figured out that they were what set off the scanner

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice michanical pencil.
*by M***1 on November 6, 2023*

This Rite In The Rain pencil in much nicer then the older models. I like that it has weight to it and feels good in the hand. It writes very well and the lead deploys and retracts easily without any hiccups. I tend to press down hard when writing and always snap thinner lead pencils. This 1.3mm lead is great and after just a few pages of writing can tell it's going to be one of my favorite pencils. I did not rate the durability do to just receiving it but I have no doubt it will last a long time. I gave the value 4 stars because for a pencil at this price it would have been nice to receive extra lead and a couple erasers. It will be another 14 dollars for lead and erasers but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. My original Rite In The Rain pencil is now three years old and still going strong but it just feels to light and small in diameter in my large hands. I like the metal pinch area and just that little large diameter makes a big difference when writing for long periods of time. Is it worth it, I think so and I would definitely purchase another one. The eraser works very well and the lead is super strong. I read a few reviews on people breaking these pencil's so I applied pressure to the plastic part with my thumb and it was plenty strong and I am a welder with large strong hands. Maybe don't sit on it or purposely try snapping it to test it's strength. Well worth the money if you use it for what it was fabricated for. You can't go wrong with any Write In The Rain product but then again that is just my opinion after using there products for years. Heavy handed approved.
