About Staedtler 0.5mm Mechanical Pencil Silver Series
Overall Feedback:
91% positive
95% praised the lead durability
I have experienced the best 2.0 mm lead.
93% appreciated the refill mechanism
Refilling it is very easy and it comes with a tiny eraser.
85% liked the precision for fine writing
The pencil has a precise and serious look, almost like a surgical instrument.
The pencil is very natural and precise. It does not distract me and I do not have to worry about it failing when writing.
I have absolute precision in writing or drawing with this instrument.
93% found the lead smooth, but 7% encountered issues
This pencil holds the lead tight and advances it like a typical mechanical lead holder, which is an improvement over other pencils that cause leads to drop out.
The mechanical pencil has a sleeve end which causes rough ripping against the paper if the lead is used too far.
94% liked the grip comfort
I have noticed that the pencil has a comfortable grip and weighty feel, indicating quality materials and no sliding while writing.
The grip of the pencil feels like velcro for human skin and it can make or break someone who is undecided about metal knurling.
I was pleasantly surprised by the grip of the pen. Initially, I had doubts about the knurling being too rough to touch, but when I received the pen, I found the knurling to be fine and it felt nice to hold. It creates a great grip without the sticky feeling of a rubber grip.
The knurled grip has a pronounced feel and my fingers will not slip.
92% appreciated the eraser quality, however 8% didn't
I used the eraser once and it cannot be pulled out like other mechanical pencils.
80% appreciated the clip strength, but 20% found it weak
The clip is strong and does not move around much.
The clip is strong and can be easily removed.
When I apply pressure on the pencil, its clip starts moving vertically.
82% liked the barrel design
The pencil barrel is made of thick machined aluminum, making it light and virtually unbendable.
The mechanical pencil has a smooth barrel, knurled grip and well-designed end cap, which are perfect.
