## Questions & Answers

**Q: is this pencil too heavy to put behind ear?**
A: The pencil has some heft to it, but it stays behind my ear just fine. It's just heavy enough so that you won't forget it's there.

**Q: Is the tip delicate? Would this be a pencil that can be carried in a pocket without the tip bending or breaking?**
A: It is delicate. I broke mine few days back. It should have been retractable when not in use. I have habit of leaving pencil inside the book as book marker. One time I was standing , took the book out to read, pencil fell and land on its tip. That was the end of it.  I have had many lead pencils never had issues of broken tip except this one. But I until then I loved it, carried it everywhere. Seems someone jinxed it.

**Q: What's the difference between the rapid pro and the 600 series?**
A: The Rapid Pro is a natural evolution of the Rotring 600 in terms of design. The profile is rounded, and the grip section more generous. In terms of functionality, the main difference is the retractable nib, present in the Rapid Pro and absent in the 600. The Rapid Pro is also available in 2mm edition in addition to the 0,5 and 0,7, while the 600 comes only in these two sizes. The 600 features an interesting lead hardness indicator, which is not present in the Rapid Pro. Both pencils have a full metal body.The Rotring 600 represents a piece of Rotring heritage, with its classic rugged design. The Rapid Pro is a more modern interpretation of the same concept.

**Q: does this model have a retractable tip?**
A: No.  Lead is retractable, but tip is fixed.
