Uni Mitsubishi Crayon Shin-chan Kuru Toga Mechanical Pencil 0.5mm TK3-4769031

🔵There's a real problem that affects almost all mechanical pencils—bear with us as we explain. As you use a regular mechanical pencil, the lead wears down on one side, forming a slanted wedge-shaped tip. Each time you put the lead to the page you end up using a different lead surface (pointy, flat, wide, thin) depending on how you hold the pencil. This can cause dramatic and unsightly variations in line thickness as you write or draw.

🔵The Kuru Toga eliminates this problem with the use of an ingenious lead rotation mechanism that continually rotates the pencil lead as you write. A spring-loaded clutch twists the lead incrementally every time you lift the pencil from the paper. This allows a uniform wearing of the lead to create a conical tip shape that provides a fine, consistent line.

🔵This body design features a lovely black body with black clip, giving the pencil a sporty look. The nose cone is made of silver-colored plastic.

Ridges in the grip area support your fingers as you write, making writing more comfortable. The capped eraser is refillable.
