Verry nice pencil to draw with. Smooth, light, clean. Really enjoyed working with with this pencil. Normally i use a rotring 600, but the 600 is too heavy to use all day. Really want another kuru toga, absolutely love it

What a pen, honestly can't describe how nice this is to use. If like me you have 'doctors handwriting ' and are constantly spinning the pencil around to get the sharp bit, then this is a must.It is actually life changing and I haven't used another pencil since.

The mechanical pencil feels luxurious and good quality. Great grip. However, the bottom half is plastic, and the rotating mechanism is slower than expected.

I just had to give this 5 starts as I need a pencil for studying A level maths and this is the best pencil I've ever owned.Previously I've tried disposal mechanical pencils and a Staedtler Mars micro 5.0mmThe auto rotate (stay sharpe feature) that many say doesn't work, appears not to do anything I definitely don't notice it doing anything and my lead would still blunten and I myself quested if it really worked or just had some kind of placebo effect. However upon returning to my Staedtler for a day (couldn't find my Kuru Toga) I soon noticed the Staedtler blunted much quicker and easier. I therefore conclude the the rotation stay sharpe feature does work pretty well and although not perfect I really couldn't do without this feature anymore, I actually love this feature.The quality of this pencil is very good though unfortunately only the bottom half is aluminium the rest is aluminium look plastic although this maybe slightly cheapens the look and feel it is still a very solid and attractive pencil.I actually felt quite posh using this in maths class, default the best pencil and smatest looking pencil in my class.I really don't know how easy it would be to source replacement rubbers for the top but I don't really care as I like to use my large quality rubber which I already own.Personally I prefer the Staedtler leads as they Seth to write smoother so I buy replace 5.0mm lead from them. Any 5mm lead should fit fine.If like to point out that the Staedtler I've been comparing to is an excellent quality pencil and perhaps better value (depending on current prices) but I simply prefer the Kuru Toga.I'm actually after a 3mm pencil now and won't buy any other brand, once you've tried a Kuru Toga there's no going back.On that note I'll end this review with a few pictures, hope you have found it useful

Fantastic mechanical pencil. Not heavy and well balanced. Feels cool to the touch. Writes beautifully and very sharp.

It’s such a great pencil and writes so smoothly that I sometimes forget that it’s a pencil.The rotating mechanism inside ensures that it always stays in shape and never feels scratchy on any paper I have tried it on. Bought it for my daily planner, but now I use it in Murdle as it’s really easy to erase.It feels really comfortable to hold as you’re writing or drawing. Works perfectly well with my mini aluminium ruler.

These pencils are excellent. The clutch mechanism works great and the grip is good. Very light, though still feel good in the hand. I've dropped mine a few times and it hold up well.I bought another, one for the backpack and one to keep at the desk.

I work in engineering, and Engineers love their pencils. Pens are all very well, but tend not to work too well when you're scribbling on a scrap of paper against a wall. I want a good pencil.This one is great! The Kuru Toga 'engine' rotates the nib each time you lift if off the paper so you always have a sharp point, it's comfortable to hold and the supplied lead is very smooth and nice to write with. It's also pretty robust - I usually use a 0.7mm lead pencil simply because I break the leads so often, but the 0.5 on this one is fine. I've yet to break the tip off in normal use.It's lovely to write or sketch with, and balances in the hand well, and feels well made and sturdy. The only slight annoyance is the cap on the eraser tends to fall off, but if you crush it ever-so-slightly it will then stay in place.Brilliant pen, with a fun bit of engineering thrown in. I like it so much, I use this one for writing, and have ordered several more in different barrel colours to put colour leads into. No more pens for me.
