Smooth lines. Modern look.  Sleek design curves. This .5mm Mechanical Pencil just FEELS good in the hand.  Light and perfectly balanced for precision point control for writing in tight spaces; you can write for hours with this baby. Eraser is underneath the plunger cap. Also pulling eraser off will expose an ample replacement lead cylinder that can hold over 10 leads.  Another Japanese engineered quality instrument.  Strong tensile strength clip holds tight to the thick leather loop of a day planner or a thin linen shirt.  Pricing this at $18.00 is very fair given the quality and workmanship in this instrument. You can tell this WASN’T made in China!
