HMM Pencil - 0.7mm Mechanical Lead Pencil for Office & School, Ideal for Drawing, Writing & Drafting, Balanced, Durable Aluminum & Brass Design - Black & Gold

Just enjoy buying such a different mechanical pencil. An exceptional and wonderful product. Heavy and well-balanced, suitable for big hand.

I was very excited to open the package with this pencil in it. It is beautiful and felt great in my hand. So it was a bummer when clicking on the mechanism didn't extend the lead. I really wanted to keep this pencil, but I could not get it to work. I took it apart and had two problems. After fooling around with nib's mechanism I got it to open and close. But it still would not work with an actual lead in it. And the web site says it takes a 0.7mm lead. Mine didn't - it came with 0.5mm - a 0.7mm would fit through the nib's hole, but not through the mechanism's opening. I tried to get the lead to extend with the 0.5mm and to get the mechanism to grab the 0.7mm. None of that worked. I sent it back. Again it was faulty and it definitely came with 0.5, so if you like 0.7 better (like I do), then look elsewhere.
