It’s not exactly “fake plastic” – whatever that is? – but resin. It has a wonderful deep glow and is often admired by my colleagues for the 3D effect in the marbled area. The “slick plastic grip” suits me nicely – the pencil has a good size for a shirt pocket – and the Henrikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16539087675373785220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21675608.post-36985785715916836902010-06-11T19:30:34.943+12:002010-06-11T19:30:34.943+12:00If I took out all the personal opinion then a revi...If I took out all the personal opinion then a review would be little more than a manufacturers specification list. <br />The pencil is Xcm long, it is Ycm diameter, the grip is rubber, etc.<br />Appearance is an integral part of liking or disliking a particular pencil. <br />You are free to read my reviews or not.
