    Can anyone recommend a good refillable mechanical pencil? Tired of cheap / quick to break lead / too skinny for the hand disposables... Plus most of the lead in disposables is a bit too hard for my taste. I'd love to find a refillable that accepted various density (in the low 'B' range... not too soft... maybe a nice 2b).

    • https://www.gearhung… Anyone in the list, I would choose the Pentel graph gear or the Rotring...OBBTKN
    • For the leads, now I'm using Tombow 2B as everyday writing tool, nice and relatively cheapOBBTKN
    • The Uniball Kuru Toga is only good for writing, imo. Lead spins so it always stays sorta sharp, which has its place. Not good for sketching, again imo.Nairn
    • I really need to buy that Rotring sometime. It's been on my list for years now, thanks to an old, now-left QBNer.Nairn
    • I only use 0.9mm 2B, fat and soft as fuck.Nairn
    • rOtring or any architect's leadholderimbecile
