For those that don't want to read too much on this blog to find answers, the simple answer is nothing beats a quality mechanical drafting pencil if you're using it for writing and not for art. The Rotring 600, the Pentel Graphgear, and the Pentel Sharp (P205) are all fantastic choices. For art pencils it's hard to beat Staedtler.
It's an interesting blog, but after spending way too much of my energy on pencils and pens over the years, I've realized there's some great Goldilocks choices out there, so hopefully I save someone reading this the rabbit hole.
- chrisweekly 3y agoPentel GraphGear 1000 is phenomenal.
- vinodhn 3y ago+1 for the GraphGear 1000. Had one for about 8 years before I dropped it and broke the tip. Definitely my favorite pencil. Ordered a replacement off Amazon and hit the jackpot as they sent me a whole box of them rather than just a single one lol. I've now got more than enough GG1000s for my lifetime.
- jonsen 3y agoI once needed a special blade for my saw. They only offered a 3-pack so I ordered that, and received 3 3-packs. I don't know, but I felt that I should report it. Fiddled around for som time on their reporting pages, but absolutely no way to report that kind of error. Are you in my neighborhood? You can have 3 saw blades for one GG1000 ;-)
