Rotring 600 Lead Holder Drop System - 2 mm - Black Body

Very happy and impressed with the Rotring 600 lead holder. Does the job it's designed for and does it very well. there are lots of metal lead holders out there, and i own a fair few, but this is possibly the nicest of my collection. it's no nonsense straightforward approach, makes it a tool i reach for everyday. it's fairly light weight, but feels solid and well balanced. the clutch holds the lead in place, and does not allow for any spinning as some can do. the knurled grip which appears rather rough in the photos ( which was the reason i hesitated ordering it sooner) is in fact very comfortable to hold. not at all harsh, and has a enough grip to prevent slippage without making the drawing experience uncomfortable in any way. has a satin black finish and fits into a standard rotary lead pointer.Will a lead holder of lesser price do the job as well as this one does? absolutely, but if you want one that is solid, well balanced, and just looks pretty darn cool, you might want to give the Rotring 600 a try.

Truly Exquisite!...if you could have but one leadholder...this is it. Perfect balance (suprisingly light). Satin matte black finish. Smooth well functioning clutch, no wobbling. Everything that can be expected of the Rotring 600 series. Nice drawing pencil.

Black Beauty!...what are you waiting for...order one now! :o)

Whoops....I meant SILVER BEAUTY....and it is very pretty bead blasted silver.
