Tombow ZOOM 707 Druckbleistift 0,5 mm

This purchase was to complement the pen I bought of the same type. I get asked about them anytime I am using it. It's small and only takes a couple spare leads in the well. Smaller hands will like better, but I enjoy writing with it.

excellent pencil for drafting or art work.

Oh man, this pencil is so cool I can't stop playing with it. It LOOKS delicate but feels sturdy and made of quality. It's brass barrel has a good thin feel and feels stronger than other mechanical pencils. It has a good weight in the hands, while still being incredibly thin for a pencil. I have no trouble with lead breaking and the pencil is a conversation starter when seen by others. Also did I mention how cool it looks? No? Go back up to the picture and look at it, it's so stylish. It looks like a relic from the early nineties and it IS a relic from the late 80's and that, my friends, makes it even cooler.

Really well made and oddly skinny. Not something you want to use all day but it's a real treat to use for a change. Worth it.
