## Description

Say goodbye to dull and frequent lead breakage with the engineered design of the uni-ball KuruToga Mechanical Pencil. This mechanical pencil features an exclusive rotating lead mechanism that resists lead breakage and maintains a continuous sharp point. Simply put – as you write; the pencil continuously rotates and sharpens the lead. Unlike regular mechanical pencils that produce thicker; lighter lines after a few uses; Kuru Toga fancy mechanical pencils stay sharp; so they produce the same thin; dark line that you start out with; making your handwriting clearer and more precise. What’s even better is that the KuruToga contains exclusive diamond-infused lead. It not only improves your writing experience; but also creates dark vivid lines.

Review: Beautiful piece of engineering, Japan style. - I lived in Japan for many years and greatly enjoyed buying and using all of the wonderfully engineered tools, cooking implements, knives, consumer electronics, etc. Japanese people love precision and great clean design, and mechanical pencils ("sha-pen" in Japanese) are heavily used. By professionals, captains of industry, artists, and school children. My Japanese teacher turned me onto them, great for precision writing of Kanji. I think the Japanese affinity for them stems from the similarity to sumi-e (charcoal) writing implements traditionally used to write Kanji characters. I don't recall these Kuru Toga pencils from when I was there, I might have been using them all along and didn't realize what I had. Anyway, I just bought this one from desertcart and fell in love with it instantly. For a piece of consumer goods that costs less than $6.00 the engineering and design of this thing is a marvel. Might sound funny but it is beautiful to look at. Smoke translucent high gloss plastic barrel, neon green grip and eraser cap, chome-look tip, ridges molded into the end to make it easier to grip. The auto rotation/ auto advance of the lead works perfectly as expected. To test it I started writing and could not stop. The included HB leads are for me, the perfect balance of darkness and hardness. Silky smooth on the paper and they produce no dust that will smudge. I spent the day today at work, writing with a 0.5 mech pencil (not one of these, just a standard one) and the lead broke every 10 seconds literally. Snap, click to advance. Snap, click to advance. Snap, click to advance. Frustration. Got home, opened this up and just wrote a lot and have not broken the point once. Includes a starter pack of HB 0.7 leads and 3 erasers (one installed and two spares). The pencil itself had about 3 leads pre-installed so get this "starter set" and you'll be good to go for a long time. desertcart sells a 40- pack of the 0.7 leads as an "add-on" item for a couple of dollars if you spend more than $25. Love this sha-pen. Must. Concentrate. On. Not. Losing. It.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the 0.7 mm KuruToga have the same teeny and near useless eraser that the 0.5 mm version does?**
A: Yes. The itsy-bitsy-teeny-weeny near useless little emergency eraser for the times when you forgot or can't find your good block eraser. That one. Near, but not absolutely completely, useless. Also very expensive to replace when you run out of them, so at that point you're better off buying a whole new pencil set. Which comes with more erasers. And buying another block eraser so you don't keep using the tiny erasers up.

**Q: Is this pencil self feeding or do I have to click something to advance my lead.**
A: This pencil is not self feeding, you advance the lead by pressing down on the eraser holder.  I like the smooth grip on the pencil and the size of the lead.  It is a winner in my book.  I am a teacher so I use it a lot.

**Q: What kind of erasers does this pencil take and where can you find the erasers for sale?**
A: I try to use a separate eraser because refills seem hard to find. This is the only site I've seen, but I have no experience with them: http://www.smartimports.net/products/Uni%252dball-Pencil-Eraser-Refill-for-Kuru-Toga-Pencils.html

**Q: How to you refill the leads?**
A: The Kuru Toga lead refill is inserted by removing the eraser and inserting the lead refills. Return the eraser and plastic cap.  Click pencil a few times to advance the lead.
