Ohto Comfort Sharp Lead Holder - 2 mm - Orange Body

Pretty good value for its price point. Nice to have all 4 colors to keep different graphite grades separate without having to switch leads. It comes with an unmarked 3.5" lead that I find rather coarse, so I would recommend discarding it and replacing it with a smoother drawing lead. Its diameter is too wide to be used in a typical rotary tub lead pointer, so getting a reliable lead pointer would be advisable. Its built-in pointer in the push button tends to be out of alignment and yields an uneven point, so I would only used it in a pinch. While it makes a nice addition to a leadholder collection, I prefer the sturdier construction and precision grip of the metal clutch of the Mitsubishi Uni leadholder or the Staedtler 925-25-20.

Very please with this purchase. Another reviewer commented on how they think the lead is coarse but I find it to be very comfortable and easy to draw/write with. The sharpener in the cap is a huge plus and works reasonably well. I really like the rubber coating. I only wish that somehow an eraser could have been put on top of the sharpener somehow. JUST BUT IT ALREADY!

Not bad - has a lightweight body with a comfortable rubber coating. The clip is very stiff, so be careful if clipping this to an art project or other important paper as it may leave a dent. The lead sharpener on the top is handy, but must be used over a garbage can or it will make a good deal of dust. Overall a very good value if you're just looking to try a lead holder.

I work in a mud, rain, grime, and cement environment and this pencil never fails. The sharpener on the head is simply fantastic and eliminates my having to pack a lead sharpener around with me. A truly well designed lead holder! I use this now in the office too, and feel its the best lead holder available.

I ordered this pencil on a whim and I haven't regretted it once. Its lightweight body was a surprise but perfect since I worry about hand fatigue over time. So far so good.
