  This pencil's grip rips..., November 2, 2011
By jen...
This pencil's grip rips easily and the metal gets scratches easily as well. It also has no clip, so that might not be good for some buyers. It has a good weight to it. The grip is very squishy and easy to work with without getting tired or sore. Overall, this is a very nice pencil.

  The best pencil I have..., June 29, 2011
By sar...
The best pencil I have ever bought, and my favourite one as well. The grip makes it really nice to write with without getting tired. It's just really nice to write with overall. I never use any other pencil than this one. Definitely recommend it!

By bon...
I loved this pencil it looks very slick, it writes well, and the grip is very nice. I have two complaints about though. The first one is after a while the grip get a little to squishy and actually feels bad to write with. I recommend getting a shaka shaka pencils or the new kuratoga alpha gel pencils. Also the slims are very nice.

  The Uni-Ball Alpha Gel..., October 15, 2009
The Uni-Ball Alpha Gel Pencil - 0.5 mm

Good:
- Stronger Grip than the Shaka Shaka Series, although less colourful within the grip.
- Good Weight, build, and small grip near the end of the pencil helps for people writing down low.
- The gel provides very good protection against flat middle fingers when writing fast or for an extensive period of time.

Bad:
- Major flaw in the design was that there was no clip.
- A little more on the light side.

Overall, this pencil is recommended for everyday writers.

Anyway, this is a nice product. Out of the uni-ball series of mechanical pencils, this is the worst (rating found on a Japanese blog site).

  I must say that I have..., February 1, 2008
I must say that I have officially fallen in love with these pencils. They are squishy, and I love the color. Last year my friend had one that was pink, and everyone in our class was always picking it up and feeling it, especially me since I was one of her closest friends. She gave me one for my birthday, and I was so excited to use it! When I lost it, I really wanted to find a new one, and found this website! I just ordered one this week, and I am soooooooooooo excited to get it. This pencil is definitely worth the price!!!
