MICRO HEXA 2000 MECHANICAL PENCILS
구 마이크로 헥사 2000
This is Micro's another famous series - Hexa series.
Hexa series starts from Hexa 1000, and it is the next line.
I have two Hexa 2000s, and they have several distictions.
One is contained in a paper box with gold letters and the other is lied in a platic case with silver letters.
There is written HEXA three times with different fonts.
The above one is the earliest model, and the below one is the later model.
They look strikingly different even though they are the same mechanical pencils.
It's no longer enough to say they experienced minor changes. XD
Let's talk about them one by one.
The first thing is the shape of the cone.
The later model has longer and more sharp cone.
Second, the length of the grip is also different. The later one has shorter grip.
Finally, only the later model has metal ring between the grip and the barrel.
The grip plagiarised that of Faber Castell's TK fine vario model.
The older model has clearly TK fine vario's streamlined grip.
The later model has rather cylindrical grip.
The length of the push button is slightly different.
Only the early model has cleaner pin.
Micro had to remove cleaner pins afterwards as the company suffers from the financial crisis.
