Uni-ball Jetstream Ballpoint Pen - 0.7 mm - Alpha Gel Grip Series - Pink Body - UNI SXN1000071P13

By jnette3
the pink color and brushed metallic finish is really really pretty... writing is oh so smooth.
however, it's no perfect. here are two of my complaints:
1. the alpha gel part is located too high. It is awkward to grab it up there to write
2. though this is 0.7, i find the thickness of writing a bit too thin.
my quest for a perfect pen (in baby pink) continues... *sigh*

At first I wasn't sure if it would work or if I would like it, but I am so glad I bough it. Now I can only use this pencil and if I use another mechanical pencil, it feels uncomfortable.

This is fantastic lead. It writes so smooth and it has not broken on me. It also lasts a Long time because I use a piece every two days that's great. Buy it.

I don't think you can wrong with a Lamy, particularly the Safari. The problems the reviewer below had are rare. I've purchased 5 different Safaris, including the white model - which I love - and had no trouble. The pen is of solid make and design, durable, fun. With some fountain pen experience, I imagine any trouble with the nib could be easily fixed with just a few tweaks. Don't let an overall review score scare you away from this one. It's a fantastic pen.

Rotring 600 Drafting Pencil - 0.35 mm - Silver Body - ROTRING 502613

By narziss
The Rotring 600, although narrower and slightly less comfortable than the Staedtler 925-25, is my favorite due to its solid construction. The Rotring 600 can feel unbalanced if I grab it too close to the tip. Nevertheless, its absolute precision elegantly accompanies its distinctive, clinical appearance. If I could only choose one pencil, it would be this one.
Staedtler Regulator Drafting Pencil - 0.3 mm - STAEDTLER 92585-03
  The Staedtler Regulator..., May 13, 2012
By narziss
The Staedtler Regulator is really neat with its ability to adjust how much lead comes out per click. The grip is comfortable, though a little bit too wide (which you might like), and the pencil doesn't feel as solid as say the Rotring 600. For me, the Staedtler 925-25-03 has the perfect width. However, neither of the Staedtlers feels as solid as the Rotring 600 (which though a bit narrow, doesn't rattle like the Staedtler under pressure).
Staedtler 925-25 Silver Series Drafting Pencil - 0.3 mm - STAEDTLER 92525-03
  The Staedtler 925-25-03..., May 13, 2012
By narziss
The Staedtler 925-25-03 is my second favorite for its comfort and precision (my favorite is the Rotring 600). The width is ideal, and the weight is balanced. However, the cap tends to rattle when I'm writing small characters quickly (perhaps I'm pushing hard under pressure, but this isn't a problem I have with the Rotring). Nevertheless, I can see the Staedtler 925 being chosen above the Rotring and viceversa. They are both wonderful pencils.
Pentel Graph 1000 for Pro Drafting Pencil - 0.3 mm - PENTEL PG1003

By narziss
The Graph 1000 has a really nice feel to the click, and its overall construction is solid (for a plastic pencil), but I don't really like the grip, and I prefer heavier, metal pencils.
