I used to advocate for the sharp kerry but I've had two completely stop feeding official pentel leads and need replacement from pentel for no reason. They are shorter lived than even the graphgear 1000s, and I've broken the plastic parts on those too. The graphgear's retractable tip has never put a hole in my pocket, and I can always clip it to the top of my pocket (with the pen in the pocket) if I'm really concerned. The biggest issue I have with the graphgear 1000s is that the texturing on the barrel just isn't very comfortable for extended duration use. I always end up putting a stupid puffy piece to make them easier to use for long periods of time. Lately I've just given up on all of those and end up using 2mm lead holders. I've probably got $150-200 worth of fancy pencils and the 2mm leadholders get the most use.
