Two Excaliburs
Sir Pencils11, Knight of the Quest, has supplied me a few Excaliburs lately.Firstly in Regal Gold
Secondly in Black with Gold Trims. Quite a contrast to the all gold version.
The golden crown.
Excalibur in regal gold or silver…that seems right…befitting a just and glorious Warrior-King like Arthur, but black? It looks great, but maybe they should have called it Mordred rather than Excalibur? Or what about The Black Prince?

Haha, I agree with you on the names for the black one.Could call at least "Blacksword" or something, haha.
Btw, beautiful mechanical pencils.
Surprisingly I like the gold one more, but they're both pretty fine-looking pencils :). Generous donations!
A review would be interesting but understandably such specimens would go straight to the collection case . . . then again, the black one is already a little scuffed up on the barrel, so it's the perfect candidate for review week.
It's a shame that other high-end Pentels like the Mechanica are made of mostly plastic though.
That's a mean looking pencil sharpener.
My Lancelot doesn't hold a candle to this
The first picture did distract me very much from the Excalibur... Is River Cottage on telly in NZ?
Memm - yes, but I don't usually watch it.
is the excalibur in your top 5 then?

My Top 5 page finishes with this:-
"Finally, since there can be only ONE, and that’s the Pentel SG65 / Excalibur, it is excluded from the list."
So, yes, or yes and no if you like to interpret that way.
glad we cleared that up!!!

Pentel really should consider a reprise... NO Excalibur pencils on eBay at time of writing, 2010-07-29. Just four other Pentel Excalibur lots, all rollerball.

have you tried the lancelot
Lancelot - yes, I've got one. Have to review it one day :-)
That black Excalibur looks exactly like this Pentel 7 pencil I got off eBay, just with a glossy finish instead of matte.
