    It's most likely a gift from a company to their highly valuable artist, someone like Jim Lee could have one on display in his home or office, along with the pencil art he has created. He himself gave a $9k Rolex to his inker. If the pencil is in use, then the user is someone who doesn't have to care about the price, it's all the same to them.

    It'll go nicely with my diamond encrusted Damian Hirst skull and my solid gold bicycle. However ... the basic product is one of those little classics of German industrial design, and is perhaps worth having on that basis alone. Sadly, thick pencil extenders and anything which puts weight on the end are two of my pet hates, so maybe not for me - but it's cool.
    A quick thank you, Smoothie, for the recent Arteza coloured pencil review. I bought some on the strength of it and am glad I did. Cheers. :-)

    Well I gave this a great deal of thought and in the and decided against it, the reason was quite simply that I never go plein air drawing or painting, so therefore I would be creating an unnecessary need for myself if I purchased one lol

    Having just joined your Patreon, I thought maybe that you were offering this great lump of extravagance as a joining perk, with a 95% discount to Patreon members I was starting to tremble with excitement , I reached for the IPad and went straight to Amazon and at the last moment I suddenly realised that it was probably too good to be true, so no more salivating at the thought of hedonistic pleasure stroking such a divine symbol whilst putting in my pen tray, then you loosed us down slower with this much cheaper offering, sorry Jon, not the same feeling is it, I’ll just stick to my Kaweco Brass Sport, just the right length to deliver the goods , posted or not, an interesting review, but sadly the man from Camelot hasn’t knocked my door just yet so I’ll continue to dream, but thanks anyway, Mike West Bromwich

    I knew it was going to be gold/diamonds (which are what you're paying for). I prefer pencils that are rare and have demand attached to them, but no intrinsic value (such as the EF Blackwing 602 ...which is worth the same the wooden part of this 'perfect pencil'). A Thoreau pencil would impress me, or perhaps an unused pack of WWII-era Mono-Kings. :3

    Im sorry but the expensive pencil is worth $100 to $150 max and the cheaper one is worth $3 to $5 max. That pencil topper isnt all that special. Kum makes them so do several other companies. Im not knocking FC for anything other than the price. Im sure its quality.
