The Opt pencil is a quality instrument available at a fraction of its potential price. The sales slogan for this line in Japan is "Dress up!", and it was designed to accompany business people and travelers. It features a broad body for an ergonomic hold, a push clip that can be used to clip this pencil onto thicker objects, and a shaker function! This means that you can just shake the pencil and the internal weight mechanism extends the lead for you! No need to click (though pencil includes this feature)!
See shaker pencils in action in the following JetPens.com TV video!
I got this pencil several months ago from a friend. It has been awhile since
I've had a shaker pencil. My Pilot Dr. Grip shaker pencil I had since Freshman
year broke. The construction of this pencil is fairly sturdy and the shaker
piece works smoothly. The built of this pencil reminds me of a Papermate pencil
I've had before, due to the same type of grip.
For a cheap shaker pencil, this is a really good one although, I wish the
slider/push button thingy at the top can lock the shaker like other shaker
pencils.
This pencil writes well and feels comfortable, but I can't get past how cheap
the construction feels and how flimsy it is. Pentel seems to make more reliable
pencils for the same price.
This pencil is amazing. The shaker mechanism is great and easy to use. The
eraser is nice and the weight is just perfect. It is very comfortable to use.
I would recommend this to every one that loves design and easy usability.
This is one of the coolest mechanical pencils i have ever used!!! This is not
your typical MADE IN CHINA pencil, no, no, no,no, this is MADE IN JAPAN!!!! The
best quality smooth writting, not plastice body (feels like real steal!) and the
paint will not chip, will last a lifetime, what more can you ask for!!!?
