Favorite Pencil for School?

[Xizerz]

So school, at least in my state, is starting in about 2 weeks, and I thought it might be useful for everyone to share what pencil they use and what they think is the best.

 

Personally, I love the pentel twist erase (I use the 0.5mm version). I personally think it is the most comfortable one I've ever used and it is made of high quality plastic. It is a little pricy ($7 for a 2 pack) but I think it's worth it because of how comfortable they are to write with.

Laptops.

[AresKrieger]

I take other people's pencils and what not that they leave behind

[Xizerz]

laptops are nice, but alas, i cannot afford a $600 pencil

Migrated to laptop for most of my work but when I do write or draw diagrams and things I tend to like those triangular shaped mechanical pencils, quite fond of the Staedtler 763 series.

Fuck a pencil. Bic medium point ballpoints. Or those black gel-ink clicky pens if I haven't lost them/had them stolen. If I have to use a pencil, the standard No.2 non-mechanical type are my preferred. I tend to press down pretty hard when I write and mechanical pencils can't handle it.

Haha. Fair enough. If I'm writing a lot, it still gets all over my hand. They're just more comfortable than the Bics; but I prefer the Bics based on price:performance ratio.

price to performance ratio with bics is not bad but I would use the same mechanical pencil for 2 years or so currently a rotring 600 and I would use a stainless parker jotter or zebra f-701 pens with space pen refills in them. I kept running into cheap pens not watching to write on some paper and usually that paper was blue books for writen exams in school lol

I cant being myself to carry my 600 I'm just afraid it will stab me or bend the tip. It kind of makes me want to get an 800.

I never brought the correct equiptment to school. At most I had a pen and much of the time I had to borrow them.

 

As for a pencil, just get a standard one. When the teacher asks you to bring out your pencil, just ask to borrow one and then never give it back. Free pencil.

Staedtler Mars Micros. I use the 0.7mm one, and it's lasted me quite some time. Staedtler does make some really quality products.

School traumatized me as a child with all my teachers always complaining about my terrible handwriting. Like what use is handwriting anyway when once you get to college and beyond everything needs to be typed?
