“i've tried & returned most cause they let me. and that was nice of them.
and this is my fav personal everyday that would be missed if lost so i keep it on me too.
for writing~doodling~drafting~werkin.
materials + grip work great if hands are dirty or gloved. not too visually distracting. easy to find.
has a smoother feeling click compared to the 600. plus if you’re using it for a while, it hurts to have hard edges digging into your palm.
using the 600 pencil to distinguish between pen v 'cil in the dark v light. can use the edges as a physical + visual cue. or the red ring on the butt since that's what should be bust open when a error~no~compute happens.
though you should use a nearby eraser anyway.
just looks better to have the hard edges end with a harsh needle point that dispenses lead. and makes it easier to see your marking point at a variety of angles.
can double as a Eye / Circuitboard Stabber 9000 if something steals your drafts before they ready. it even has a grip back there for your thumb when you do a stabby~stabby motion.
das germans knew wassup.
zebra makes a solid similar one~for~the~price~of~three.
uni~ball visions flow like a fountain. have a satisfying inky darkness to them. my free4alls i leave out for grubby hands that might keep 'em.
pilot v-signs for thicc'er marks that arent sharpie-like.
pilot razors are fine but made me want to slit my wrists when writing~doodlin' on rough or coated paper stock.
tombows for highlighting~throwingshade.”
