uni Kuru Toga Advance ///
Auto Lead Rotating Mechanical Pencil
The Kuru Toga Advance has a core rotation mechanism that continually rotates the pencil lead as you write. A spring-loaded clutch twists the lead incrementally every time you lift the pencil from the paper, allowing a uniform wearing of the lead so that it always remains pointed.
The new W-Speed engine turns lead twice as fast as the original uni Kuru Toga for continuous sharpening.
Every 20 strokes, the lead turns thereby always keeping the tip sharp and precise.
The metal pipe at the tip keeps the lead from breaking and retracts as you write ensuring the perfect amount of lead is always exposed.
The Nano Dia lead is infused with millions of nanodiamond particles and silicone oil, resulting in a strong lead that produces darker and smoother lines.
There's a real problem that affects almost all mechanical pencils-bear with us as we explain. As you use a regular mechanical pencil, the lead wears down on one side, forming a slanted wedge-shaped tip. Each time you put the lead to the page you end up using a different lead surface (pointy, flat, wide, thin) depending on how you hold the pencil. This can cause dramatic and unsightly variations in line thickness as you write or draw.
The Kuru Toga eliminates this problem with the use of an ingenious lead rotation mechanism that continually rotates the pencil lead as you write. A spring-loaded clutch twists the lead incrementally every time you lift the pencil from the paper. This allows a uniform wearing of the lead to create a conical tip shape that provides a fine, consistent line.
This Kuru Toga Advance features an updated "W Speed" mechanism, which rotates the lead twice as fast as standard Kuru Toga pencils so that the lead gets sharpened twice as quickly. Standard Kuru Toga pencils rotate the lead once every 40 strokes, while the Kuru Toga Advance rotates the lead once every 20 strokes. The Advance's mechanism also features metal parts for smoother, more reliable performance.
The Advance also features a sliding lead sleeve (guide pipe) that protects the lead as you write. As you write and the lead gets shorter, the sleeve slides into the pencil, getting shorter along with the lead. This means that you can write continuously without clicking to extend more lead, all the way until the sleeve gets too short. The sleeve can be fully retracted when the pencil is not being used, protecting it from getting bent or poking a hole in your pocket or pencil case.
Is this the best mechanical pencil?

ZEBRA DelGuard Unbreakable Pencil ///
- 0.5mm Lead
- Lead Break Protection, DelGuard System
- Zebra Mechanical Pencil DelGuard
- In writing, to protect the core so that it does not break even from no matter how strong the pen pressure of every angle.
Additional new six colors appeared in the popular "Zebra DelGuard 0.5" series! The lead will be protected so that it will not break from any writing pressure at any angle during writing. The DelGuard utilizes an ingenious two-part system that makes it virtually impossible to break the lead.
First, a spring in barrel of the pencil lets the lead slide back into the pencil instead of breaking if too much vertical pressure is applied. Second, another spring in the tip dynamically extends the lead guard to protect the lead when too much sideways pressure is applied. The two mechanisms, works by adjusting the allocation automatically to match the power of the angle and strength applied.
It may sound complicated, but it really works! By being able to use it without worrying about core breakage or core clogging, users can concentrate on writing with confidence at important scenes such as studying every day and testing. "DelGuard" provides the best performance.
Tombow Mono Graph Shaker Mechanical Pencil ///
This modern and stylish Mechanical Pencil is chock-full of cool features. There's no need to let go and re-grip your Pencil every time you want to extend the lead. Just shake the Pencil Up and down! （"Fore Knock" Shaker Mechanism ) you can also push the clip downward-this conventional click mechanism is very smooth and easy.
To lock the shaker mechanism, push the clip upward. ("Fure lock" Mechanism) When locked, you don't have to worry about accidentally extending the lead; even when you shake the Pencil, the lead will not come out.
The long guide pipe lets you see where you're drawing or writing. The popular Tombow mono eraser is installed at the top with a rotating, twist mechanism and usable length of approximately 0.7 inches (1.8 cm).

I bought a "shaker" pencil back in 1988 when I was stationed in South Korea. Even today, it's still one of my favorite pencils and it still works.

[@adibansode5966]

Really!!!

[@Thespiker00]

Is it automatic or not?

[@honeysyrup2526]

I've collected both Tombow shaker and Uni Kuru toga both does awesomely well, now only delgaurd is left to finish this collection haha

[@ShinosukeXD]

Is the grip version of kuru toga has the 2x Engine Speed or only the advanced has it?
