WSD Mechanical pencils Gold

This boy is Thick but can write in slender lines or heavy think markings when layed more on its side. Once your done drawing - just push the release and slide the bit back inside. No worries about punching holes thru clothing and it takes up so little space for what it can do. My favorite pencil right now.

This pencil is beautifully made and comfortable to hold. I like mechanical pencils and have several different styles. Even the .9mm points break when I really get writing quickly. I thought this heavy duty lead would work really well. It does, I can fly-write rapidly and nothing breaks. There is a sharpener in the cap but it sharpens slowly, although it works very well. If you don't mind a manual sharpening tool then get the pen. One small issue, I notice when it is packed in a bag and carried around for a few weeks, the barrel unscrews itself from the bottom lead holder. It is a simple remedy, just screw it back together but it is a small issue for such a great pencil holder. Note: buy extra leads when you order Bonus: it comes with an attachment to create a stylus out of the pencil It doesn't roll off my desk. It is comfortable to hold. Gorgeous colour. Lead drops easily down when needed. Clutch is smooth to operate. The fine milled lines give it a great grip for arthritic fingers.

This pencil is made by a mysterious company called WSD, whose logo looks like a design error, and it comes in a nice tin with their logo printed right on it. As indicated, it is indeed Inspiration and Breative. I don't use the tin, though. This pencil is always at hand since it's become my main sketching pencil. It comes with 2B lead, which is pretty soft, but that's to be expected when you're using larger lead sizes. I also ordered a case of Koh-I-Noor lead, which is a bit longer. It fits fine, though they seem to be a little thinner than the one that comes with this. The construction is solid. It feels heavy, and and the balance is nice. There are machined grooves all around that give it a nice grip, and six flats on the sides to keep it from rolling away. The button unscrews and has an integrated sharpener, which works well. It's a drop clutch, so when you press the button the lead just drops out instead of moving in increments. But with lead this thick, you won't need to advance it often, and it's nice to be able to quickly set the length. The only downside I can see is that whenever I remove the lead, dust pours out behind it. The clutch seems to be grinding at the graphite, though I don't notice as I use it. I guess this is meant to be a clone of the Kaweco Sketch Up (which I haven't tried) since it has the same name and similar size, but this one seems to have a more comfortable shape and a better price. It's still a lot for a pencil, but it's a one-time purchase that makes drawing a lot more comfortable.

It is made in a sturdy way. To help friction for hand holding it, it has textured body. But it is still slippery, imo. It is short. It is shaped like an oval. It feels like it just wants to slip out of my hands. And also, it is uncomfortable because it is too fat. It seems like a person who designed it placed a lot of emphases on making it sturdy, and pretty, but not enough emphases on comfort and usability. Admittedly, the nature of the pen type (5.6mm), plus the sturdy, yet inexpensive mechanism used, kind of demands it to be that fat. So perhaps it is not absolutely a designer's fault. I do think there are other designs that are 5.6mm, but are still more comfortable.

Feels good in the hand. The clutch has worked without issue, with no lead slippage. I like the (short) length, girth, and taper for holding as you would charcoal.

Has a nice, solid feel and its mass encourages longer, more graceful lines, drawn from the shoulder. Its shorter length allows for a comfortable overhand grip in the palm, but does not preclude the tripod "pencil grip". Also, you can always extend the lead to the desired overall length. The flattened places on its barrel prevent it from rolling around on the table, as almost any fall to the floor would result in a broken lead. I use with 5.6mm Koh-I-Noor sanguine, sepia and white chalk, and Cretacolor dry and oil sanguine and sepia.

Just what I needed! I got this to hold a Kakimori nib. The original wood nib holder is a tight fit in an ink bottle, but this one is perfect. There are times the longer pen holder gives better line control, but for my purposes, this one is perfect. And, it doesn’t roll off the table. I’m not wild about the textured surface, but that’s minor.

Been using this for sketching. Great pencil. Refillable lead. Will last a long time.

Very good

I was worried ordering this pencil. I really wanted a real square, straight, cylindrical design lead holder and this ovalish shape wasn't what I was wanting... Anyways, I've got it, and it's pretty rad. The shorter, 4.5" length and heavier feel of the metal form is great. It's real handheld, and holdable feeling.. Has a good EDC feel. I can carry it, play with it, flip it.. and use it to draw and write. PLUS, the metal has a ribbed texture that's fun to fiddle with. Personally, I like the was colored lead, but that's me, and one can order that separate. I have no complaints with this pencil. Oh! And mine came with an attachment making it a digital pen! Bonus!

Un poquito pequeño, y la cabeza/sacapuntas, no es fácil de usar. Es bonito. Lucido

Excellent value for money paid
