Nicpro 0.5 mm Art Mechanical Pencil Set in Storage Case, 3 PCS Metal Drafting Pencil Lead Pencil with 6 Tube HB Refills, 3 Erasers, 9 PCS Eraser Refills for Artist Writing, Drawing, Sketching

The metal pen is durable lightweight and attractive. The tip is innovative which is long enough to allow use with a ruller. It works smoothly and precisely.

Great set, just the right mechanical pencil for people that write with a heavy hand. This comes at a truly bargain rate, packaged beautifully, ships very quickly and best price point on Amazon. Very happy with this purchase.

I’ve been using these for th past 6 months now.very good pencils to draw and make notes.Also easy to use to change the erasers but I just kept forgetting to changed it.

My decades-long hunt for a good mechanical pencil (since they stopped making the slim Niji pencils I loved) has ended! These Nicpro metal "drafting" pencils are everything I've wanted in a pencil, and, in fact, more than I looked for. I use them not for drawing but for writing, especially for tasks such as marking up manuscripts, making notes in the margins of books, lists and the like. Most important: they write beautifully, with a dark but thin and accurate line, using superb leads that move easily over paper, neither catching nor sliding; in other words, the pencils are completely controllable and responsive. Next, they have a good, textured rubberized grip, and the mechanism to advance the lead works easily. A huge problem for me in the past has been erasers. Maybe more expensive pencils come with good erasers, but at the alarming pace with which I loose pencils, I don't buy expensive ones. The Nicpro's erasers erase fully without even a hint of smudging or paper-abrasion, and, given that fact, they last a surprisingly long time. As if that weren't enough, they include in the package a bunch of replacement erasers--I've never seen that before!--and, for good measure, some large erasers that are just as good as the ones on the pencils. Plus lots of extra leads. The design is simple, modern and pleasing. OK, if I were designing it, I'd probably make the clip matte like the rest of the body rather than shiny, but that's an infinitesimally tiny quibble when placed alongside the huge advantages--and the only I can come up with. Other than why I didn't notice these pencils years ago! I've happily rooted through my desk drawer and thrown out all of the pencils that have been irritating me, and laid in a supply of these. I should mention that I also bought a set from the Nicpro pastel series (I think there are two), which are attractive in their own way, and liked them nearly as much for all of the same reasons as above. They seem to write a bit darker, or with a slightly broader, not quite as precise, line--I don't understand why this would be the case--and they're still a pleasure to write with, but when I want more precision, like writing notes in the margins of a book, I prefer the metal "drafting" pencils.

Great pencils. Only issue i have ever had with them is the rubber grip slowly pushing over the metal collar behind it while writing for an extended period of time

These are very comfortable to use. The lead breaks a little but they provide several containers of lead.

Great set and sturdy. Nicely packed and perfect.

Functions fine. Good value at price point.

Veramente belle e funzionali. Prezzo incredibile confrontato con quelle in plastica

Todo correcto, llegó en el plazo establecido y la relación calidad/precio es la adecuada. Recomendable la compra de estos portaminas

Weil billige Plastiklösungen schnell kaputt gehen, suchte ich für dauerhaften Immer-Dabei-Einsatz zum Markieren im Handwerksbereich eine stabile Lösung. Diese Druckbleistifte sind gut verarbeitet, aus dem richtigen Material und werden mir sicherlich gute Diebste leisten.

Parfait pour le dessin. Et les plans de construction en menuiserie.

Bought them for my relative and they like them so much they made me buy a second set. They work exactly as advertised and the erasers are good too.
