CH Hanson Sharpdraw-HD Carpenter Pencil w/Refill

This is basically a pencil that works like a click box cutter. Always sharp, you’ll never need to sharpen a pencil again! And it has the same wide lead shape as a carpenter pencil, so it marks the same as one. The lead is tough and durable, I have not had it break. Well made considering that it is a simple pencil, retractable, has a pocket clip that’s removable, grips just like a box cutter, and is thin enough to tuck into your hat and not be a nuisance. It’s a great replacement for those 67 cent box store wooden pencils.

Awesome pencil. Will be using it for a long time on all my projects.

Flimsy ink Good idea

Love the constant thin line with no sharpening needed. Great product.

This is a nice pencil for rough carpentry. I don't think I would use it for cabinetmaking because the line is too thick. That's not why I gave it 4 stars. Are there any additional refills for it. I know you can refill it because it comes with refills but is that all? Do you throw it away once those refills are gone and buy another one?

The lead is great and seems to be really durable. lays down a great line. The problem is the body it is housed in is hot garbage. Doesn't have enough tension to stay open. As soon as you apply pressure to make your mark, the pencil lead slips back into the body. Looking for a Olfa style body with a turn knob to tension the blade. otherwise it's going to sit in the bottom of my toolbag collecting dust.

The pencil seems to work nicely, but I have yet to find any access to additional refills. I have tried to contact the CH Hanson company but no one will answer my inquiries. Having to buy another new mechanical pencil because it ran out of lead seems to be a bad arrangement.

As advertised
