At this point, you probably already know what our most popular pencils are.
In this video, we’ll show you mechanical and wooden pencils
that fly under the radar but deserve more attention.
Let’s get started!
Color Mechanical Pencil
Why settle for one lead color when you can have three?
The Uni Color 3 is a unique multi mechanical pencil that works just like a multi pen.
It comes with blue, orange, and red leads installed, but you can switch them for your
favorite colors or just plain graphite.
Drafting Pencil
For those who are serious about mechanical pencils,
a drafting pencil like the Platinum Pro-Use II is a major upgrade.
Just like the iconic pencils made by Rotring,
the Pro-Use has a durable aluminum body that stands up to the dings
and scratches of constant use.
Plus, if you use a wide variety of lead grades,
you won’t have to worry about forgetting what you have installed in the pencil:
a dial near the tip lets you keep track!
Ergonomic Mechanical Pencil
The Zebra nuSpiral CC doesn’t look like your average ergonomic pencil
thanks to its carefully engineered shape that maximizes comfort.
The unique spiral design ensures that the barrel rests naturally on your hand,
while the rounded triangular section encourages an ergonomic grip.
This mechanical pencil keeps your hand from cramping even during marathon writing sessions.
Fine-Tip Mechanical Pencil
Anyone obsessed with fine-tip mechanical pencils has heard of the Pentel Orenz,
but the affordable Pilot AirBlanc definitely deserves time in the spotlight.
This pastel mechanical pencil comes in a 0.3 mm tip size
that’s perfect for complicated equations and tiny doodles.
It also has an innovative grip that dissipates heat and keeps your hand cool!
Lead Guard Mechanical Pencil
The Zebra Delguard is one of the most popular lead guard mechanical pencils out there,
but we think the Platinum OLEeNU has one special feature that has it beat.
It features Platinum’s innovative “Zero Shin” mechanism that lets you use almost
all of the lead inside,
down to the last 0.5 mm!
You can pick between two versions of the OLEeNU:
the budget-friendly Shield or the rugged High Grade.
Shaker Mechanical Pencil
The Pilot Opt is one of our favorite mechanical pencils for students, and for good reason.
The wide, ergonomic body keeps your hand from cramping while taking notes.
It also has a sturdy push clip that attaches securely to thicker surfaces.
The Opt comes in unique body colors, like the glittery Stardust Blue
and sleek Carbon Black.
Wooden Pencil
Don’t be fooled by the plain appearance of the Tombow 2558.
It’s leaps and bounds better than the boring yellow pencils you may have used in school!
The lead draws a dark, smooth line with a little bit of texture for excellent control.
It comes in the tried and true HB grade, plus B and H for those who prefer darker
or lighter lines.
