Design is unique. Pencil itself is on the lighter side. Experience dealing with the Appelboom company is very positive.

What first stood out to me is the cleverness of the notches, which are cut in threes, in the body; in total there are three, with the lower two placed precisely where one would normally grip the leadholder for writing; and one much higher not where one would normally grip for drawing etc. All three sets of notches ensure a very comfortable fail-safe grip. However, if you like to grip lower, where the leadholder has two vertical cuts that expose the inner brass mechanism and subtle branding, the slits can cut into the fingers.
The design is a minimalistic and futurist drop-type (ie gravity) with a 45 degree angle button, The leadholder is skinny, long, light, and well-balanced – no wrist or arm pain from unnecessary weight. The clutch or chuck actually pushes out by about a centimetre, opening up to let the graphite fall. Likewise, when not in use, the clutch/chuck vanishes up into the leadholder.

Dieser Carbon-Druckbleistift hat ein sehr schönes Design und Schreibgefühl! Ich würde sagen, es ist der beste, das ich je benutzt habe.
