These pencils are exemplary of the quality of rOtring products. They have a good heft, combined with a diameter only slightly greater than a wooden pencil. The knurled grip is simple but effective. And the turn-to-extend-tip feature is a lot of fun to use! A couple of important comments. These aren’t meant to be used for writing essays and love letters - they’re drafting pencils. You’d probably tire of holding them after a long writing stint, because they’re hefty, and the grip lends to control not comfort or ergonomics. But they’re fine for jotting notes, much better for drafting and sketching, and just all-around fun to have. Also - some complain as to durability. These are sturdy pencils with one exception: the tip. Once the tip is bent, the pencil is pretty useless. I have an old one that a friend gave me, and he tried to repair the tip by straightening it after it’d been bent: it breaks the lead about 50% of the time you extend it now. So - store these with the tip retracted, don’t be a complete klutz, and you’ll be fine! Can’t recommend these enough! Great pen, great gift for engineers and scientists. Read more

El portaminas muy bonito. Pero la caja un poco sencilla para un regalo. Muy buena punta. Muy bien en mano. Read more

This pencil is of superior quality. The tip retracts so you can safely put it into your pocket or bag without risk of stabbing yourself the next time you reach for t. It’s weighted perfectly and it’s cool to the touch so is a pleasure to write with every time. Read more

This is a fantastic mechanical pencil. Expensive but worth it! I am using for artistic drawing for very fine lines. This mechanical pencils work with Rotring and Faber Castel leads. I started to buy one mechanical pencil with o.5mm HB leads. I ended buying two others for 2B and 2H Faber Castel leads. Just love drawing with them! Rotring should offer more options with the leads. Additionally, it will be nice if there was an area to indicate the reference of the lead i.e., HB, 2B and 2H. To get around this issue, I taped a little paper with the reference of the lead in an area where I do not place my fingers. It doesn't look very nice but It is a quick fix to quickly identify each of my mechanical pencils. Read more

It's quite heavy and small to use for long writing. Overall build quality is quite nice but I do not like how they put an eraser in the body. This is not a pencil I would recommend to everyone but I do understand that some people might find it appealing. Read more

Devo ammettere che è la mia prima portamine di qualità ma sono rimasto molto soddisfatto. Il grip è molto buono vista la parte zigrinata nel metallo e al contempo non risulta troppo pesante, anzi, il peso è ben bilanciato. Oltretutto la parte in gomma che viene utilizzata per scrivere in uno schermo touch io la ho trovata molto comoda e utile, sopratutto quando vado a leggere degli articoli di giornale ed ho la necessità di spostarmi nella pagina. Il meccanismo di funzionamento è impeccabile. Read more
