I started to notice that there are few pencils coming with those nowadays, even Japanese-made Pentel pencils here don't have those anymore. <br /><br />They are really useful, especially with aging 0.3mm pencils since finding needles that thin to act as a substitute is not an easy task.Blackbeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04611840441033304378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21675608.post-51971182498964920872018-09-13T09:19:14.666+12:002018-09-13T09:19:14.666+12:00Thanks for the heads-up on that.

I have a similar type of retractable eraser, but with a much larger diameter, and also some small erasers that fit a battery operated device (which I don't have). The big advantage of having the eraser within the pencil is that you don't have to remember to George Clementsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21675608.post-41662684363662299352018-09-12T00:05:48.275+12:002018-09-12T00:05:48.275+12:00@ George might I suggest an eraser like this?

I am also not a fan of rubber grips on pencils or ballpens. Having said that, the styling of this pen is rather appealing. I am not into material science, but I have concerns about some plastics that are subject to ultra-violet light degradation, and I hope that this pencil is not George Clementsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21675608.post-18949825230440642802018-09-11T15:27:09.865+12:002018-09-11T15:27:09.865+12:00I didn't get a chance to read the article yet....I didn't get a chance to read the article yet.
