Color:Yellow Perpetua is different from other pencils: It is made with a new technological and innovative material composed of 80% recycled graphite derived from industrial scraps, without the addition of protective coatings or additional processing. A unique object, a veritable revolution in writing completely “Made in Italy”. Perpetua is versatile, clean, non-toxic, sharpenable, shock resistant, and able to write even without the tip, fitted with a food grade eraser available in eight different colors.

Expensive but inovative
It's a little rough on paper but it does write. It's graphite impregnated rubber - so it sharpens and works like a normal 'full graphite' pencil but because it's rubber based it has more friction on the paper. It does, however, not require sharpening as frequently. This can be a blessing or a curse - as it dulls it has more paper friction. One thing I can assure you, is you'll never break the end off like normal graphite pencils. I personally recommend you get a different color eraser other than black - as it makes finding which end to write with (glancing out of the corner of your eye) harder to determine. All in all, I think this is a good improvement over the pencil for an every day carry situation but I don't feel it has enough benefits to replace ordinary pencils altogether. It's also very expensive for what you get. I paid $12.95 when I purchased.Note - I was not given this item to review - it was purchased with my hard earned money. I never tell anyone how to spend their money, but I wouldn't recommend this product unless you have disposable income to dispose of or the need of a very sturdy pencil. While I haven't tested, this item may also work underwater.

The description is not correct. This is a pencil made of 80% recycled graphite and can be sharpened. The colored bit on the end is an eraser and it does erase. It is a light mark but that is exactly what I want to sketch with before doing watercolor.

Perhaps not for everyone...
i have several of these 'ink-less' writing devices. i tried them on several surfaces and found that they work very well indeed on stone paper. other surfaces, not so well. if you want to experience the tactile sensation of writing they are fine.

Disapointing. I expected a weak line as described, but this takes too much pressure to get a live distinctive enough to see clearly.
