## Description

Japanese Kita-Boshi OTP-series are unique 2mm mechanical pencils with the "old-school" look and feel of a classic wooden pencil, that will remind you of your childhood days. This knock-style wooden lead holder was created for those who prefer the feel of a wooden hexagonal pencil while enjoying the convenience and the advantage of a mechanical pencil. The lead holder has a natural wood body of premium American Cedar with its rich warm wood finish. The barrel diameter is slightly larger than a regular pencil to accommodate for adult hands. Its light weight and excellent balance make it easy to use for long periods without fatigue. The well-engineered clutch will hold the 2mm lead securely in place without slipping, no matter how much pressure is put on the lead. Located on top is a simple mushroom shaped knock button to release and return the lead back into the holder. The high-quality, Japan-made #1 B black lead is crafted by uniformly mixing pure graphite and clay, to achieve the ultimate resilience to breaking and the perfect smoothness. One 2mm #1 pencil lead is already included inside the holder. Perfect for writing, sketching and drawin, etc. Refill leads are available in packs of 5 in a sturdy cylindrical cardboard holder.

Review: Beautiful to hold, beautiful to look upon and beautiful to write with - A beautiful, well-crafted pencil that feels good in the hand. This is artfully made and an absolute delight to write with. I do really wish it had an option with an eraser on top. I also wish there was an option with the pocket clip and the sharpener packaged together. But this product is superbly made. It is a work of art. And an absolute joy to hold and to use. Highly recommend.
Review: Great pencil, however... desertcart sends some broken once in awhile ... I guess. - First: Five stars for the product. The maker of these wooden mechanical pencils is amazing. The pencils smell great and work smoothly. I bought all of the others they make. Now the delivery experience: The product is fine when desertcart doesn't send broken items inside of an undamaged large box full of large bubble packing. I'm just really disappointed that something so fragile could be carelessly sent broken. desertcart doesn't care. They get their money either way. But it does ruin the experience. There was excitement—and then, oh look, "Here's your broken item." :/
