Kokuyo Campus Junior Mechanical Pencil - 1.3 mm - Pink Body

I just got mine today. I bought two in both colors. They are awesome!! Highly recommend them.

Can you sharpen the lead??????

This is the only 1.3mm pencil that I've found aside from the Staedtler Art Nr.177. I love this pencil. It's not "just for kids" simply because it has a 1.3mm size and bright colors. The material used for the body creates a superior grip and feel. Kokuyo never fails to design products extremely well. My only wish for this pencil would be an eraser, but that doesn't change my love for this pencil overall.

I really love the super fat 1.3 mm lead on this mechanical pencil. The lead is easy to insert at the top of the pencil. But it is also just as easy for the lead to fly out of the top of the pencil and land in pieces on the floor. I prefer using the Pentel Fiesta which is 1.3 mm and has an eraser to keep the lead from falling out. The Japanese bookstore I originally purchased the Pentel Fiesta no longer carries it. I wish Jet Pens would carry it!

I bought this mechanical pencil for my 4 year old sometime last year. 1.3mm is a perfect lead size for a preschooler to learn with and these pencils are sturdily constructed with a solid mechanism. I recommend it for anyone with pre-school age children.
