      What's your recommendation if you have the now-extinct Maruzen art lead holders? I've both the 3mm and 5.8mm that I bought from you guys years ago, but they're both kinda useless if I can't find lead refills for them anymore. I assume 2mm is more common than 3, but what about the 5mms? Which 5mm is more common for longevity? Thanks.

      If you have to sharpen the lead instead of advance it, it's a lead holder. Also the holders don't really advance but drop the lead when you push them.

    I have an Ohto model in green color and I love it. Bought with you, guys, and once it got to my hands I never let go. It's the perfect weight for me and the larger grip indeed makes the fatigue go away (not to mentiin the carpal tunnel syndrome that is avoided). My only complaint is the lack of a sharpener on it, but I solved the problem with a Kumi pencil sharpener that not only doesn't make a mess, but also is always available to sharpen normal pens with that long point I love so much ♡

  • @DreamQuillRose
    @DreamQuillRose 2 роки тому +2

    This was an excellent review for those of us completely new to clutch pencils/lead holders. I'm particularly interested in the lightweight lead holders, because I have tendonitis, and quite small hands, so I think a lighter one would be more comfortable for me. I was wondering if a lead holder would work to hold the broken ends of expensive colored pencils, so I don't have to waste them. The leads range from 2.8mm to 4mm, with my 3.0mm (Prismacolor) and 3.3mm (Brutfuner) leads breaking rather frequently.
    Do you know if a lead holder can be used to hold waxy colored pencil leads? Have you ever tested the idea? I was thinking, if I leave a long piece of lead inside the pencil body, the colored pencil lead can't get pushed back inside while I'm coloring with it. What do you think?
    Edit: I bought the Faber-Castell TK9400 3.15mm. It holds most colored pencil leads that are 3-4mm wide, such as Prismacolor. Also Brutfuner squares, whcih break about as often.

      Have you tried the Faber Castell TK 9400 series (2mm and 3.15mm) and TK 4600 (2mm)? The only Rotring that I like for drawing, is an old Tikky 0.5 mm that I got back in 1995! For lead holders, I choose Faber Castell because they perform the best. As for mechanical pencils, Pentel P205 , Pentel Graphgear 500 and that old Tikky 0.5 , are the best I've used.
      The Pentel are also the most versatile, they perform great for writing, for technical or free drawing. Faber Castell Lead holders, have also the same performance and versatility. I have thoroughly tested all of them, the models I mentioned, may not be of the most robust materials, but these perform the best, between all the pencils I have tested.

      PrettyRed Glasses one of them comes with an egg shaped sharpener. One of them has a lead “pointer” (does the same thing) in the back end of the holder (where the eraser would be on a wooden pencil”. You can buy lead pointers and sharpeners since normal pencil sharpeners won’t work.

    Why isn't every single pen ever just triangular? Triangular pens are much more confortable to write with.

      Well thats subjective isn't it. I personally can't stand triangular shaped pens and pencils.

      @@ricardo.mazeto Yeah I guess so, the triangular shape just doesn't fit my grip. I also hold my pencils in various ways when sketching and I think a round or hexagonal body is more versatile, triangular seems to lock you into a single grip position and feels weird in other positions like an Overhand grip for example.
