It was on Sunday morning while taking Kristine out for breakfast that I spotted this unusual pencil. Yes, its a mechanical pencil.
What attracted me to it was its design at the business end, with its harsh silver grip. Looking back at the rack, the Made in China pencils come in a shade of (all transparent) blue, green, red and black. Although the grip is nice but your fingers will complain when you use it for a long period (seconds), especially if your fingers tend to slide (like me) as you will soon realise how abrasive the grip is, even though its plastic (yes, really), designed to look like aluminium.
For RM3.90 its a bit expensive but then again, its a welcome design from the "normal" stocks you see everyday at the bookshops. OK, I keep losing these when I am drawing because I tend to store them in boxes where I can never find them again for a long long time, which leads me to buying another one.
Somehow, I feel all these pencils are hiding from me............
