Several celebrated mechanical pencils of Pentel.
The above are graph 500 0.3mm and 0.5mm.
Graph 1000 is so famous that people relatively know less about graph 500.
Moreover, graph 500 models were discontinued and came back as graphlet.
Since graph 500 and graphlet look nearly identical, I wonder why Pentel discontinued it and remade it with different name.
Incidentally, this is the mechanical pencil that Micro copied when Micro made Jedo 2000 and Jedo 3000.
It would be fun to compare their grips!
They are not identical exactly, but Micro disassembled the grip of graph 500 to make two types of grips.
A closer photo of the famous grips.
It's strange that the lead grade indicator is inside the grip.
Graphgear 1000 mechanical pencils.
Not only graph 1000, but also this graph 1000 is quite popular.
They can conceal the lead sleeve inside the cone using the clip - the mechanism is just like Pentel's flexfit series.
It is interesting that the clip parts are slightly different.
The 0.4 mm mechanical pencil in the middle has a screw in the clip - this is the newer model.
The old type doesn't have the screw, so the clip part is weak.
One of the most famous pencils in Korea.
This is the 1st generation of graph 1000 limited edition.
It seems that the limited edition series continues to the 9th generation for now.
The graph 1000 is so famous that I think I don't need to talk much about it.
Although they are limited editions, they were made in so many pieces that they are not that rare.
Pentel's another flagship smash.
I also had several color versions like gray, gray green, and silver colors for real uses.
I guess they are somewhere in my house.
Smash model was discontinued, but it gained much popularity suddenly.
Afterwards, many color changed limited editions have been released.
The funny thing is the XS model.
It was released as a next model of smash when the smash models were discontinued.
However, the XS models were so out of favor that they were discontinued while smash models were released again.
This is relatively cheaper one.
Pentel's stein mechanical pencils.
The metal grip with hexagonal holes are its feature.
