Apparently!
You can pry my Twist-Erase from my cold dead arthritic hands.
#1 got me through college
5
I'd rather fucking kill myself.
Also, some of these options are not pencils. For a pen I'd go for 5/6.
The Dixon Ticonderoga is the only pencil I've used that doesn't have an absolute shit eraser, so I pick that.
I never use integrated erasers apart from emergency like my standalome eraser got launched out of the test room and the staff won't get it for me. Or for wood pencils when they are unusable for writing I'll save them as erasers. I just hate having partial erasers or stuck half erasers in mechanical pencils.
The Pentel Graphgear 1000 is great. I love how it retracts.
Pentel Twist-erase 0.7 is the proper answer.
#6 is the closest to what got me through dozens of blue books.
6, which I guess is pretty similar to my pick for number 5 on the pen post. Looks like the weight and style would feel best in my hand. Sadly none of them have my favorite feature of having fairly long and good quality erasers on it like my current favorite (non imported) mechanical pencil. Can't remember the name off the top of my head
I pick number 5 because I feel like there is a balance between the expected lifetime of the pencil and the expected lifetime of the eraser. These fancy metal ones with the little sliver of shitty eraser that ends up getting lost and the supposed 3 pack replacement ones that you have to special order somewhere. Ugh no thanks.
Definitely 2. Sharpening is such a nice break from writing.
I really like 4.
Mainly for the reason that it auto rotates the pencil lead every time you lift it off the page; thus preventing flat spotting your handwriting
I spent way too much time hunting down a Pilot Automac and finally got it. being stuck with anything here would be such a stark downgrade
Alvin DM07. No other, maybe #3 because I liked that the lead automatically rotated on each press. But Alvin all the way.
Mine isn’t here, but 8 if I have to choose.
No Rotring 600? For shame!
Where are my fellow Blackwing pencil enjoyers?
Number 1.
#3 for the always-sharp tip, but #4 is a close contender for the protection against snapping lead. (I own both of these pencils.)
