SharpWriter Mechanical Pencils, 0.7 mm #2 Pencil Lead, Yellow, 36 Count - Back to School Supplies

Great pencils at an affordable price.

Simply the best mechanical pencil. Have not found anything close to its quality.

These pencils are a repeat purchase in our house, which says a lot! My kids use them throughout the school year, and they consistently perform well. The lead writes smoothly, and the pencils are comfortable to hold for everyday schoolwork. I love that there's no sharpening required, which saves time and eliminates the mess of pencil shavings. They're durable, reliable, and perfect for homework, tests, and classroom use. The 36-count pack is a great value and helps keep us stocked up for quite a while. I'll definitely continue purchasing these year after year!

I don't think I ever actually bought one of these until this purchase. My main memory of these pencils were seeing them on the floor in the hallways at school. Picking them up and tinkering with them, I learned how to refill the lead which was neat. You can take the eraser off, twist the tip counter clockwise until a T shaped doohickey comes out, remove the unusable lead if needed, insert a new piece into the bottom part of the T and slide the whole part into the center of the spring, Twist the tip clockwise and put the eraser back on. I figured having a bulk pack of reliable pencils would be a good idea so that I can keep a few at strategic locations at home, some at the office, some in my bag, and I would not be too bummed if I or someone else were to loose or break one. So far these have indeed been reliable. Their size and weight allow me to write for extended periods with minimal fatigue. I've seen that they recently moved their factory operations and with that came a new formula. While I preferred the color of the old models for aesthetics, the new color is brighter and easy to find when I need to grab a pencil. I do not personally notice any major difference in performance between the older and newer models. Honestly for about 30 cent pencil, I would expect greater variation just between pencils in the same package let alone comparing pencils from difference eras and facilities, but at least with the few I have tried I have not had any major negative experience. I don't know if this is an actual mechanical feature or if it is that I am right handed and hold the pencil closer to the rotating tip, but I haven't needed to extend the lead after the initial extension. It just seems to continuously go. If it is a mechanical feature, bravo. If it is more because of how I hold the pencil and I am inadvertently twisting the pencil and extending the lead as I write, this is also a bravo, but also be mindful if you are a lefty and hold your pencil closer to the tip as you might be twisting the lead back into the pencil as you write. Good to know that the lead pushes into the pencil as you write as part of their cushion protection to reduce lead breakage. Neat concept and I haven't broken lead from writing but I am sure lead moving as you write may not be for everyone. I have heard that these can be thought of as throw away or disposable, but with my previous knowledge of how to refill the lead, and using an eraser cap (I recommend pentel eraser caps if you are interested) I would say these can last for as long as the mechanism does. I don't know how long that would be as I have lost them before they broke. Overall, I would say that this is a good pick for someone who may need a lot of pencils for personal or sharing use, and knowing they can be refilled helped me decide to finally buy these for once.

Love these pencils!

I have been buying these for a long time at the store and on line. I noticed right away that the yellow they are using is different and the plastic seems a bit thinner than they had before. I like the old ones better (look wise). Functionality is still the same. They are very nice.

Meet expectations!

Great! The only lead pencils I use.

I've loved these for a long time. I find them better than a mechanical pencil that you refill, because the lead in these doesn't tend to break easily, writes nicely, and you only have to turn the tip a little to advance it. I'm relieved that I can still buy these. They're super practical.

Ok

First time using these pencils and they are great. Not prone to lead breakages like others I have used.
