Review: Loved it so much I bought it twice! - Absolutely loved this mechanical pencil, I sadly lost the original one and didn't need to think twice before buying a second one. (I found the first one so now I have two!) The quality is great and the lead is strong but not too brittle. The pencil is not as dark as other HB pencils, which isn't really a problem for me as I use it for technical drawings rather than shading. After about a years use the silver painting on my pencil began to wear away, but that is the only difference between this one and my old one. My only problem with the product is the lead refill. The price of the product is great as the refill on its own is a good percentage of the price of the pen with the refill included. However the little tube the lead is in is not very secure. I left it in a small pencil case and after a few weeks the lid had fallen out and my refills had all been smashed to pieces. I was a little disappointed by this as I had been using cheap lead refills when doing sketches and using the staedtler lead sparingly, and as mentioned before the refills on their own are quite expensive, but worth it considering how many other wooden pencils I would have gone through had I not switched to mechanical.
Review: My favourite Mechanical Pencil - This is my third pencil now of this model. My first one was stolen by my Sister. She had one herself, but she wanted to take mine on a University trip which involved a lot of time out in the field. When she got back, she conveniently lost 'my' pencil and not her own (I had grounds to believe that it was actually her pencil she lost - which I was eventually proved right when she confessed to her crime). Anyway, the tension got so heated at one point that she bought me a new one right there on the spot. I should add that this argument went on for months. I simple wanted a confession. That's how much these mechanical pencils mean to us! With my second copy, we went the distance together. What makes these pencils so great is that they just have this perfect weight and feel. It genuinely feels like quality and it's rare to find all of the graphite broken inside. You can really hit the darker tones of the HB quite effortlessly while being just as able to be used lightly and for speed taking notes. I used my first copy back when I was at University. I had to do a lot of technical drawings of architecture or infrastructure and I can honestly say that it always allowed me to deliver the quality of drawing that I had in mind. My second copy was mostly used for a lot of note-taking and the occasional drawing. My new copy, as displayed in the photograph, is mostly unused for now. I only bought this particular ASIN because it came with the additional graphite. This is only a couple of quid more expensive than just buying the supplies individually - so I figured why not have a backup! In any case, I am prepared this time if my Sister plans on another heist...

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the tip of the pencil retractable?**
A: I have tried retracting the tip by pressing the silver rubber cap at the back but the tip doesn't retract. May be I received a different version.

**Q: How do you retract the tip?**
A: The question was not how do you retract the lead, but how do you retract the TIP. The description and the packaging says that the thin metal sleeve that the lead fits in can be retracted. THe mechanism does not work - nor for any of you it would seem because you answered the wrong question.

**Q: how does this pencil work?**
A: Like most propelling pencils: you have to load this one with 0.5 mm leads (available from most stationers).  Leads come in various grades: B = soft, H = hard, 4B is very soft, 4H very hard. Take off the shiney top & load 4-5 leads in the hollow central store, which also feeds leads one at a time to the propelling mechanism when in use.  Put the shiney top back on (or the leads will fall out again!).  Then, with the sharp end pointing down (to make the leads inside drop to the action end) pump the shiney top down-release-down-release etc until a lead appears through the fine tube at the action end.  Now you're ready to write; as the lead wears away (or breaks) you can advance more by pumping the shiney end a bit. Best of luck: these are great pencils, which I love using.

**Q: Where can I get the lead replacement**
A: There are many online office/stationary suppliers listed on Amazon that will be able to help in sourcing replacement leads.
