Turns out Kindle unlimited is a thing, and I’m hooked. $10/month for as many books as I can read? With how many books I read, I’m pretty sure I’m getting the better end of this deal.

I remember seeing David finch use them in his videos, so I got one and fell in love them every since
Omg thank you for this video. I’ve had a Staedtler one for YEARS, from back in art school, and I never knew they had a built in sharpener. I just didn’t use it often, but I wanted to because they seemed so much sturdier and didn’t leave wood shavings when sharpening. I love this pencil so much more now that I’m not stuck with a blunt lead tip!
YAAAAAAAAY! I have no idea WHY nobody knows about the booty sharpeners! Having it right there and built in is one of the reasons these are the bessssssstttttttttt. I’m actually really disappointed at the few pencils I have (like the Faber castell) that DONT have a built-in sharpener, even though I prefer to use my spinny one anyway. Regardless, super happy to help and reconnect you with your pencil. =>.
Before CADD drafting everything was done on the board by hand. I went to drafting school over 30 years ago and that was the pencil we used. I just never heard of that name. BTW, is you slightly spin your pencil while drawing a straight line, it will stay sharp longer.
In the graphic design classes I took in high school, the teacher lovvvvvvved having us do everything with traditional methods. One time, she had use completely layout and draw a newspaper article by hand, which was crazy but at the same time, really gave me an appreciation for how much easier computers have made things. Homegirl was obsessed with making sure we weren’t allowed to erase or smudge on that project, too, and our fonts had to be crisp and accurate.
Thanks for the tip about spinning! I know I’m not going to be aware enough in the moment to keep up the practice, but still, that’s some super helpful advice!
The ones you were using back in the day, might they have been Koh I Noor by any chance, sir?
@@retardno002 No. I believe it was a Staedtler. I think I have the spelling correct on that.
@@trlan55 thank you
Thanks, I was wondering how they came about :-)
I have one of these nice clutch pencils but didn’t know it had a built in sharpener! I thought it was some weird air hole! Lol I’ve been using an emery board to sharpen the lead. 🤷🏻♂️ So Yes, I certainly learned something! Thanks!!
Hooray!!!! I’ve seen a couple of videos on UA-cam where people were totally stumped about how to sharpen it and felt it was time to step in. =^.^= just so you know, there’s usually nowhere for the shavings to go so you have to tap them out afterwards so you don’t fling graphite around your room. =>.
Same here!!! I love my Pentel GraphGear 1000 (beautiful mechanical pencil and it’s nice and heavy) but the led breaks off all the time... so I got a clutch pencil and just loved how durable the led was but never knew how to sharpen haha long story short I’ve been carrying around an Olfa blade to sharpen it!! Yet never managed to get that fresh out of the pack quality... now I know why! Thanks meow meow!
Nothing wrong with that! In my high school drafting class we used a sandpaper pad -- kind of like small sheets of sandpaper stapled to a paint stirrer. Tear off the top one when it gets clogged and there is another one ready to go.
@@WilliamParmley me too before cad 30yrs ago we had to use that all the time with our pencils in our me hl drawing classes and we were taught to spin our pencil....
Sameeeeeeeee
I found three of these in a big box of supplies at an estate sale. Your instructions were EXACTLY what I needed to understand how to use them. Excellent overview of things I didn’t even know to ask! Thank you.
I got one at Daiso and I love it :D I didn't know it had a special name lol... I just thought it was a thicker lead mechanical pencil lol.
I have one that I think originally came from daiso , too! It’s one of my more interesting ones because it has an eraser on the back end, rather than a sharpener, and it’s the ONLY one I’ve ever seen that has that. Surprise! Now you know the name! =^.^=
My mom said there too exspensive :(
If your mom’s the one with the money, then she’s right! But it’s definitely something to look forward to once you have your own money to spend on things. Then you can make whatever decisions you want, within reason of course.
One thing that I think is important is that these pencils aren't only good for drawing, having the to bring the sharpener everywhere is a bit of a hassle, but just writing with the pencil is amazing due to the weight making it feel so good to write with.
This was a ridiculously enjoyable video where i also learned heaps. Subbed! Your narration is fab
My fellow soul-clutch-pencil-sista! 😂✏️ What a great, informative video. 👍 I fell in love with these before I knew what they were because it was the only thing that survived my heavy handed writing. Love your collection, btw! My favorite-I consider it an art piece-is one I got from a stationary magazine (can’t remember what it was) that has a hand carved wood body with brush silver metal accents and came with both a matching wooden pencil rest and sharpener encased in a wooden domed casing (it holds a 5.6 mm lead)-it’s more for display than writing. 😊
Woahhhhhhh, that sounds like a gorgeous one, though! A super big part of me reeeeeeeally wants to get pretty clutch pencils, but I never do because I get distracted and usually talk myself out of the price. Not like they’re ever crazy expensive, just that I’m like “girl. You’ve got like 15 of the damned things already. You need to stop. They aren’t magic-one more isn’t going to do something the rest don’t! Save that money for something else!” =>.
I use them. I have a couple that date back to the 60s in fact. When on location I use the Kum long-point sharpener that has 2mm and 3.2mm sharpeners built in. When at home I have one of the old draftsman sharpeners where you spin the pencil around a cone of sandpaper that's inside the case. Still the best way to sharpen them but a bit bulky to carry around. Thanks for the vlog and your sense of humor.
making the switch to these staedlers! thank you for the info, I learned a few things!
I’ve just started getting back into manual draughting (drafting) and revived one of my fathers clutch pencils from his days as a draughtsman working on some very special projects for British Rail. I’m sat here watching your excellent video with my cat too who approves as much as yours does!
Those are so cool! I’d never even heard of them before. Thanks for introducing me to such a cool product!
Surprise!!! I genuinely love my clutch pencils and really think they deserve way more notoriety. Hopefully you get a chance to fall in love with them, too!
I knew these exist but I never knew the name. I have a Kokuyo campus mechanical pencil with a 1.3 red lead and even if it doesn't erase, I adore to draw with it. I don't know why, perhaps it's too comfortable and because of the thick lead, you can actually get some line weight. I think I would love these too! Thanks for the video as always!
I have the Faber T9400 on the way and found your video helpful and fun to watch. The last time I used a clutch pencil was in tbe 1970s while studying drafting. Your description brought back that lost memory❣
Thank you! Just bought one and was so confused but now it makes more sense
This is an absolute game changer. I just went back to school and this will make note taking so much better!
I fell in love with the Staedtler led holders a year ago. I am an artist and draw with them and love their balance in my hand. Like you, I don't worry any longer about my led breaking in the middle of my work and can sharpen to the point that I need using my Staedtler sharpener which an ingenious sharpener that works very fast. Thanks for telling me about the secret colored caps--I never noticed them before and this is a great find. I love UA-cam!
I've never heard of these but now I gotta have one lol. Thank you for sharing
This is an excellent video, thank you so much for taking the time to make it! I have just recently become more aware of clutch pencils but have never used them. I have never seen or noticed them while in art stores, which is crazy because I am an artist and try to frequent art stores as often as I can. Anyway, I have either used traditional wooden pencil sets by Faber-Castell or "normal" mechanical pencils (both the cheap Bic ones with colored clips and the nicer mechanical drafting pencils). I love all of the information you've covered, and I have a sneaking suspicion that I will be getting into these pencils big time! My son asked for a mechanical pencil set for Christmas, so in my looking for one, I came across clutch pencils and became intrigued. I love that you have a lead that is the same diameter as what you'd get in a wooden pencil (I think), and that it can advance out like a mechanical pencil but won't be as delicate as a 0.5 lead would be...PLUS that Staedler sharpener can get the lead to be incredibly sharp, so yeah, color me intrigued (plus they can use colored leads as well). Just wanted to say great job, and thank you for such an informative, fun video!
Love your style! Came for the clutch, and stayed to subscribe!
Exactly what I want/needed to know. Thanks!
Just discovered clutch pencils, a nice stop on my “learning to draw better” journey. I put out the money for a nic pro set with leads and sharpener. That’s why the eraser end is empty….it’s a sharpener! Yay! Sketching is so much better now. I’m saving up for two more….value studies require light, dark, and medium leads. Thank you for sharing your information. 🍁
Here to be the voice of dissent! I don't know what got me obsessed with these recently, but I've been wanting one badly for the past, like, two months. The Koh-i-Noor models are especially enticing to me 'cause they're just so pretty. :( I've been dying to try their (kind of hard to find, unfortunately) colored watersoluble leads since I primarily lay down my sketches in a yellow ochre watercolor pencil when I paint and that just sounds like it'd revolutionize my life with the sheer convenience, to be honest.
I looove Koh-i-Noor mechanical pencils. They were my dad's preferred drafting pencil and when he taught me how to do drafting he gave me a set. They are still my favorite mechanical pencils, specifically because of their design. Pretty and functional.
Oh dang!!! I’ve been LOOKING for water soluble lead for my clutch pencil and was starting to believe it didn’t exist-now you tell me K-I-N makes some?!?! I don’t care that it’s hard to find, you’ve given me hope!
I’m loving that little tin of KIN “diamond...” whatever it’s called. The ones that I have that have the multiple different color-coded pencils with matching leads inside. I’m a big fan of when the outside color matches the inside drawing product, and they’re spot on!
So I did a little digging. And did not find Koh-I-Noor soluble lad buuuut I did find this article Go to the end for the solubility test.
www.jetpens.com/blog/the-best-colored-mechanical-pencil-leads/pt/833
I did find one by Caran 'D Ache but it was 30 euro for 4 leads.
@@MeowMeowKapow Yeah! They claim it's the same lead as what's in their Mondeluz watercolor pencils, which is pretty awesome to me. The only downside is it's kind of a funky size (3.8mm) so it has to go in their 5356 holder specifically. I haven't ordered any yet but I was able to track them down on eBay, searching "mondeluz 3.8mm lead" brings them up for me.
If you have the time/inclination, I would be really interested in a video about that set! I saw it on Amazon and was super tempted but the mixed reviews gave me second thoughts.
@@MeowMeowKapow Oh, sorry, I meant the KIN diamond tin you mentioned in your reply if that wasn't clear! It just made me curious about how you've been using them since I wasn't sure whether they'd be worth the splurge for me or not. But thank you for all the videos you do regardless, they're a bright spot in my subscriptions feed and always introduce me to cool things. :)
Oh so these were what those blue, black and red x-acto handle-looking things were. I saw them once while I was buying stuff for a class project, right beside the x-acto blades. I thought it was weird you would need that many handles and was confused as to why they were called "pencils".
This was a really informative video.
Surprise! Mystery solved!!! I’m glad to have thrown a little extra into your way. =^.^=
I'm new to sketching,I recently purchased Staedtler clutch pencil and I'm really happy with it. Neat guide,gotta grab that sharpener!
I got two of these as gifts and love them a lot thanks for the review.
Oh, awesome! Glad you’re enjoying them!
"maniacal laugh"!!! I LOVE IT!!!! bought a Staedtler 2.0 mm clutch last Thursday and you are right, it's so reliable! same here, started using clutch in high school.
Hey! Cool video! Honestly, i just fell in love with those. Currently considering splurging on whole bunch of leads, to have MOAR
I didn’t know these were a thing, but was just thinking this week that I wish mechanical leads were thicker. I’m going to add this to my wish list right now
BOOM. Wish granted!
I recently found one of these pencils that I got many years ago in high school. Thanks for sharing your knowledge about being able to sharpen them. I wondered about the end and now know what it is for. Great idea since I wasn’t impressed by how thick the lead is.
You deserve a like for the video it was well done.Took drafting so knew most of it but still watched the whole think. Must be mesmerized by the cat and the voice.
Thanks, boss! Bubba is known to be a master hunter-looks like he caught you in his snare! =>.
I've been looking into clutch pencils lately for my art, so this was really helpful. Thank you for the help!
Yeah, totally! Glad to have been of service. =^.^=
Ha! I was literally contemplating trying out clutch pencils yesterday and then this shows up in my subscription feed the next morning. Super helpful, thank you!
Totally! Wild how you’re not even the first one who’s said that. I’m psychic! Yay!!
Love mine. Had it since college. I have a spinny sharpener, but you taught me about the secret one. Thanks!
The secret ones are handy, but the spinny ones are by far my favorite!!!!
In an impulsive buy I just got the whole Steadtler set and this was so incredibly helpfull, thank you so much!
I bought a. Staedtler clutch pencil a couple years ago but never used it until recently and I completely love it.
Yasssssssssss! Welcome to the side that ROCKS.
Oh my gosh I didn't realize my staedtler leads came with a bonus sharpener, that's my favorite pencil and I watched this on the off chance that I would learn something new and I did! Thank you so much!
OMG! so informative! the pencils that have been missing from my life but didn't know! Also totally adore your presentation style! SUBSCRIBED!
Nice and thorough! Great job!
Loved this video! Learned a lot.
I like them too :3 I learned that staedler is epic, love the buggers too!
I actually saw these for the first time at a local art store and was not sure how you sharpen them, so this helped!
Hooray! HELPING!!!
Lol, the ones with the tiny blades have been around for decades. Many people didn't know that was a sharpener ... until now.
Your videos are awesome.
Sooooo many people don’t know about the built-in sharpeners! It’s madness! That’s one of the best bonus advantages!
Ikr, I had to ask my friend why she was using an emery board instead of the sharpener. Her mind was blown. Our elementary school teacher showed us the sharpener. The box didn't show a diagram.
I use my pencil for everything and those helped me know more things it can do , ty
When I was a kid I found one of these somewhere. I loved it and lost it quickly. It was exactly like the yellow koh-i-noor one but I dont think the brand existed in my country at that time. I also remember how excited I got for a mechanical pencil after I lost my the clutch one and how sad I was because the lead was so damn fragile and the pen felt light and cheap by comparison. I think I'll now treat myself to a new staedler one and get a yellow koh-i-noor for a happy reunion :) thank you for the hints what to get!
Oh, awesome! It’s sad that you lost that first one, but I love a good happy ending where long lost friends are reunited. =^.^=
Have always loved teh Staedtler pencils for drawing!!
I have seen these and forgot they existed! Seems like a nice medium between mech and wooden. Gonna give them a try. I really want to try the colored leads!
Rad, have fun with it! They really are the best of both worlds as far as I’m concerned.
I stumbled across a clutch pencil and I never would’ve known the cap was a sharpener!! THANK YOU!
This video may have been taken 4 years ago, and you are probably not going to see this comment but, I just got my first clutch pencil with a lead pointer, (I’ll skip to the point) YOU ARE THE ONLY PERSON ONLINE TO EXPLAIN THIS BETTER THAN THE STÆDTLER BRAND THEMSELVES!!!!!!!!!! ✏✒🖋🖊🖌🖍📝 (Your grading on this video: 📈)
amazing video, thank you so much!! just bought my first lead holder/clutch pencil because of you 😭💛
Neat! Hope you love it as much as I do! =^.^=
Love Staedtler mars technico. Got my first one back in the eighties! Still have one.
Thank you so much for this. All my life, I saw my dad using them and never understood what they were for. He was a surveyor/architect. I took one of his pencils (steadtler one like yours :-)) after he passed away. Glad to hear that it’s the best quality. After using it a while it got blunt and I looked for this video and I was like how do solve this now 🙀🙀🙀 Thanks a million
Wow, who knew there was a sharpener in the packs of leads! Had them for YEARS and didn't know. Knew about the sharpener in the back end of the pencil. Live n learn eh! Thanks for sharing this excellent video. I wish you good light and smooth paper 👍☕
This was really helpful, thank you.
Thanks! I love this pencil and I didn’t know it had a sharpener in the tip.
Surprise! Hopefully that means now you’ll love it even more!
Yass queen I feel u. I wanted 2 for my birthday but my brother said I was only getting one but I ended up getting my way and having a whole collection of them. And I was so happy and satisfied.
I'm happy about this video. My dad used to have these pencils and I always wanted one, but I was not sure how to use it exactly (and they are expensive!). Now I am curious and it is on my list of favorites. Thanks! 😉
Go for it! They last pretty much forever and while $10 for one pencil seems like a mighty investment, I use like....one stick of lead a year, and that’s basically nothing.
Thank you for sharing- I learned a lot & just ordered a Staeler on Amazon 🙏
I learned a lot of secrets and pointers on brands. You are Awesome! I totally love the weight and the bigger barrel, it’s definitely more comfortable 👍
Yes! I didn’t realize I cared about the heft of how the Staedtler and other brands feel in my hand until I went to use the cheap one and was just totally not into it. Sometimes, it’s the weird little details that matter!
I knew these existed, but I wasn't sure how to use or if I wanted to use them. Now I'm intrigued. You art supply enabler!
Oh gosh, yeah, I’m totally an art supply enabler. Guiltyyyyyyyy. =>.
Never knew what a clutch pencil was until we had some samples sent - did NOT even know about the sharpener! They are now among my favourite :-) You asked if your video taught anything...well yes, thank you!
I am another person in love with 2mm clutch pencils.
I am totally in love with your excellent presentation of this video.
And that black beauty tooooo ❤️
You just earned a SUBSCRIBER
Thanks for sharin' the love and concise info over the clutch pencil. I cherish the Faber Castell tk9400
Staedtler for the win!! That spinny eraser is the best. I love 2mm red leads personally. A whole lot of smudgey mess but still fun!
Yeah, some of the leads you can get are wayyyyy too soft for my preference, but I’ve found 2H ones in different colors before that DONT smudge, so it’s super nice! I belieeeeeeeve Jackson’s has some 2H colored leads from Koh-I-noor if you ever eventually run out. =>.
woah! these look really cool and i had no idea about the sharpener
I lovvvvvvvve my sharpener. It’s weirdly satisfying to use, but also super effective!
i have an oldschool one 788 staedtler all plastic, dug it out of my drawing supplies and now use it to do dynamics homework
Neat! Hope it treats you right.
Thank you for this. I've always wanted one
Get it!!! I LOVE my clutch pencils! They’re honestly just the best.
Thank you for sharing this video with us I was looking for this
Yay, your video got me excited. I just bought my first clutch pencil from Staedtler 🤩
I cant wait to try this style of pencil! I have others I need to use first before I can buy more pencils though.
Your not alone I have one and I love but I’m going to get a staedtler one soon, can’t wait 😊
Neat! Enjoy!!! Careful though-having one and then buying another is how slippery slopes of grand collection start. =>..
Love this and love these pencils like no other!!!❤️
YASSSSSSSSSSS. I’m so shocked that there are more of us out here who know about and love clutch pencils!!! Hopefully there will be a few more, yet. =^.^=
Meow Meow Kapow have you tried the one by Prismacolor??🤔
Thank you, that was enlightening.
I've been curious about these pretty recently! I happened to notice at my work we carry one (not sure of the brand) and I've never tried them before. Good to know about the sharpener options, too.
Hooray! I’m psychic and knew you needed the info!
I have owned my Art Alternatives for well over a decade and was today years old when I found out how to use the sharpener. 😅 Oil and charcoal are my preferred mediums. Like you I have always been spoiled but the freakish assortment of external sharpeners at my disposal. Thanks for this!
It's interesting that I'm just seeing this video for the first time. I've had my Staedtler and the separate sharpener since around 1979-80!
Very enjoyable to watch!
I am only finding this now, but YES, I am OBSESSED with that freshly sharpened satisfaction when you sharpen it with the "booty sharpener"! It's one of those small joys in life hahaha
wonderful, informative, love it.
Never heard of these but totally going to try them now!!!
Awesommmmmme! Makes me happy. =^.^= really feel like clutch pencils don’t get enough love.
@@MeowMeowKapow Thanks will have to try them!!!
I used them in drafting class also. I just today relearned what they are called. Nice video.
I bought one of these pencils on a cheap store and it's great, it has a nice weight and the leads that I found on the same place where cool. I quickly realized that the top was the sharpener, but I still bought a mini sharpener just for convenience :) now I kinda want to get those with color lead that you have :)
Even though I know the tips are sharpeners, I really do prefer to use that spinny one I have. BUT, it’s nice to know that if I ever forget the darn thing, there’s always a way to keep my points fresh!
And colored lead is so fun and useful! Especially if you plan to scan your work in, since it’s super easy to get photo blue lead for these things. But I also just like to sketch in different colors, sometimes. 🤷♀️
I was converted to the Staedtler Mars Technico back in he 80's while doing my graphic design and technical design courses, I used them for years after and have always preferred mechanical pencils. In the last 10 years I have been using Uni Kura toga 0.5mm pencils but always had the niggle of breakages and the nib shape. Last week I realised I was missing the clutch pencil and ordered a new Mars Technico.... It's like the return of an old friend, unlike the 0.5mm mechanicals it's also creative, unlike the best wood pencils it's practical and what you use them for is how you sharpen them. There's people that love clutch pencils and there's people that haven't tired them yet... you don't have a problem, you have a passion.
The review is amazing (and humorous)...not to mention that your cat is super cute. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the clutch pencils. I've recently am a convert to them and have to say that I wholeheartedly agree with your assessments. Thanks for sharing!
I use my dad's clutch pencil from the 70s to draw with. I remember playing with it as a kid and now I draw with it.
Love it - great explanation and very entertaining along the way :)
Thank you! =^.^=
Just brought this pencil and ive gotta say i love it. Been using my beloved mars.micro for 25 odd years now and even tried the much more expensive rotring 600 recently but god do i love this thing. It might be my go to pencil from now on. Great video.
Happy to find another lover of clutch pencils. =^.^=
Soooo helpful thank you!!
Nice video, I came across your channel while looking for some tips of clutch pencils. Really interested and I ordered one.
I’ve had the staedtler version for like over 35 years - they are definitely built to last a lifetime!
My Staedtler Mars 780 is 36 years old. I lost the clip and the sharpener is a bit dull, but the gnurling is still fine, and the pencil has acquired a beautiful darkened patina. Hope you will enjoy yours as much as I have mine. Thanks for demonstrating the sharpener I will be picking one up soon.
Love this video :) I've had one for years, it was originally my dad's, who was an architect. I am an artist/graphic designer.
Didn't watch all of it yet, obviously, but I gotta comment when I see an empty comment section ;) I love my faber castell clutch pencil, I use it for all of my sketches and the little sharpener makes the point super sharp!
Does the Faber Castell one fits in the spinney sharpener?
Yes! The Faber castell one fits in the spinny sharpener! I use my Faber castell all the time so I can personally confirm it. =^.^=
@@MeowMeowKapow Thanks for replying! Now I gotta have it haha!
I’m totally spoiled and really love my sharpener. It’s so fast, but it’s also weirdly satisfying and fun to use! You’ll see what I mean once you try it. 🖤
Oh! I just realized! I do have a very fat Faber castell pencil (the blue one that showed up in this video) and it doesn’t fit in the sharpener. It doesn’t fit in ANY sharpener I have. So, specifically, the skinny green-Barreled F.C. pencil is the one that fits.
I love clutch pencils...and your video!
I just got one of these (a Staedtler one) and I'm mostly happy with it so far. I just need to figure out the sharpening, and then I will be golden. : ) Thank you for this helpful video. I didn't know there were so many different related things you could get, like colored lead. Sounds interesting.
Lol. Just bought one a few days ago. I was looking for a good guide on how to use them and you delivered.
Hooray! My latent psychic abilities are finally surfacing!!!
thank you, I found this one and another clutchpencil at home and I have never known that there is a sharpener in it!! :)
Nice collection. nice to see. i too hooked to pen Collections.
Thanks I learned a lot!!!
