Zebra Espina Pearly Rubber Mechanical Pencil - 0.5 mm - Green Grip

I have loved my Zebra Espina pearly rubber pencil for years. I was so happy to find it on Jetpens in more colors and I got a matching pen too :o)

The minty green is beautiful! I really like the way this writes. The only thing I'd change is to have the grip area go farther. It's probably because of where I grip the pencil, but I prefer to hold it closer to the tip, and that puts me in the metal zone. The body of the pencil is a nice soft one and would be more comfortable to hold.

I haven't seen this pencil around for a while. So imagine how refreshed I was when I saw it on JetPens. I think $3.50 is a great deal for this pencil. It writes very smoothly and firmly, i.e. it handles the pressure I put on the pencil when writing, i.e. the lead doesn't break. And I also like the look and feel.
