## Description

Finest writing instruments/ stationary products from Japan, Mechanical Pencil lead, Ain STEIN, 0. 3mm x 60mm, 2B x 15 leads

Review: Excellent pencil lead that met all expectations - Works well in the Pentel Orenz Nero pencil. Writes smoothly and is as dark as a traditional #2 pencil. You get a lot of lead per capsule too. The thinness is perfect for cursive writing. I will definitely be buying more when the time comes. Small warning to anyone unaware: 0.3mm lead is fragile and 2B lead is even more fragile than the HB lead which most people use in mechanical pencils, it will wear down faster, and it's more difficult to erase. Also, the container got me stopped at airport security once because the officer thought it was a vape, haha.
Review: Great lead, clean lines and very strong - This has everything I want in .3 lead. Dark lines, erases well, long lasting and break resistant. They’re also a good price, what more can you ask
