Sunstar Stationery Metacil Black Pencil Authentic Hologram S4541120

I'm big on drawing, and typically traditional wooden pencils are my go-to. Mechanical pencils are nice for longevity, but their thin, straight lead isn't really intuitive for the intricacies of shading, line weight, etc. This is exactly what I needed. It's got all the pros of a wooden pencil, while also being durable, reusable, and STYLISH! The pencil itself has a very nice weight and feel to it, and makes a super satisfying scratching noise while writing, if you're into that stuff.

The ‘lead’ is a little light but it is smooth and writes very well.

I love this concept. Unfortunately, the pencil slipped from my hand one of the first times I used it and the nib cracked in half. Without a smooth tip, it writes pretty poorly. Replacement nibs aren't cheap.Great when it works, but it's pretty fragile. Handle with more care than a standard pen/pencil.

This Metacil pencil feels SO good in my hand; hexagonal, cold, and substantial weight. My standby, by Faber Castell, is round, slightly lighter, and has a plastic layer on the outside so you don't get that rock-cold feel.PROBLEM? The "lead" / graphite of the Metacil is just too hard. Even with a lot of pressure, enough to emboss the paper, the Metacil produces a very light line. It's uncomfortable to press that hard, but, with normal pressure, the line is barely legible - barely functional.I will stick with my graphite Faber Castell artist pencils. Peeling off that plastic layer would improve the feel, but I suspect suspect it's needed for strength and to prevent fhe softer "lead" from transferring to my fingertips.Note: Picture shows Metacil line with lots of pressure, Faber with normal pressure.

Took quite some time to get, but i was impressed. Wrote amazing (just a touch light) i did however drop it, which the tip broke at an angle, but still very much usable. I will say though, you are mostly paying for the metal and not the tip as its is about the same as any other kind of forver pen/pencil.

Writes very light. Barely visible. Not worth it.

Dropped once from a conference table onto carpet. Tip broke. Pencil is fine but a replacement tip costs as much as the pencil. Not worth it.

It feels just like a normal #2 pencil in your hand but a good amount nicer. The way it writes is just as you'd expect, but very lightly, it doesn't leave a very dark line behind, making it a little more difficult to read after than a normal pencil.

Good

Creo que es caro par alo que recibes

Le "crayon à papier" le plus cher que j'ai jamais acheté !Néanmoins, s'il tient ses promesses de "distance" d'écriture (si je ne le casse pas et si je ne le perd pas), je pense pouvoir le léguer à mon fils en héritage !En terme d'écriture, c'est un crayon à papier, qui écrit, comme.... un crayon à papier.J'avais envie de me faire plaisir et jusque là, c'est réussi !

気に入って使っています。紙によって、濃く書けたり、薄くなったりします。普通のコピー用紙は、だいたい濃く書けるものが多い印象です。芯が折れたりしないので、すごく便利だと思います。
