PentelP205-F - Sharp Mechanical Drawing Pencil 0.5 mm, Barrel Orange

Shine and beautiful !

Awesome

The photo is not accurate. It is actually an intense, safety orange. Not what I wanted, but I will keep it.

Been using these (in black) in 0.5 and 0.7 for maybe 35 years, reliable, nice weight, nice in the hand, I tend to eventually lose them.Coloured option is useful to differentiate lead sizes, or for novelty, or maybe the brighter colours will be harder to lose, or just because whatever, but coloured is more expensive, not sure why.The bar code sticker and its adhesive gum on each pencil is somewhat frustrating to remove.

Perfecto

The 0.5mm lead it uses allows for fine lines and intricate details, making it a perfect choice for sketching and drafting.

The pencil itself is great, the P205 is a classic mechanical pencil, but I have to agree with some of the other comments – the image does not represent how extremely bright orange this version is.

This is the best mechanical pencil for me. I write a lot and the pencil's advantages are:1) The pencil lead doesn't break2) Good hold that does not hurt fingers
