三菱鉛筆 Mitsubishi Pencil recycling pencil with pencil eraser 9852EW hardness HB K9852EWHB by "Mitsubishi Pencil Co, Ltd."

Good

最近は、シャープペンやボールペンではなく、これがお気に入りです。 もちろんボールペンなどとは使い分けています。

I'd buy them again in a second

I am a pencil connoisseur. I have tried all of the major brands and many of the more exotics. I like a lot of those other pencils, but I came upon the Mitsubishi 9852EW EB after reading some very detailed reviews online. WoW! Do these ever live up to expectations. The lead core is firm but writes smooth, soft, and reliably dark... but not so dark that it's hard to erase! Keeps a nice point for a long time, and even writes very well when dull. No breakage, no scratchy bits, and writes smooth and fast on a variety of papers. Eraser is also firm yet soft and VERY effective with a low amount of crumb debris. These are the "eco" version of the 9852, hence the minimal "natural" finish. Also, if you look carefully, they wood in the pencils is joined so they've utilized otherwise too-short blocks of cedar. The joins sharpen incredibly well and do not affect the performance of the pencils in any way. I will be buying these again and again, and I recommend them highly to anyone who is a fan of wood-case pencil writing.

Excellent pencils
