Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The sharp tip retracts into body and the lead extends fully with 1 click. The clutch is brass too. No more breakage for my colored lead, and a one click lead advance.

B2 is a well made, effective and no frills writing implement. Despite the thin lead, this pencil just writes so smoothly. The only drawback is that the barrel comes only in red, while i would prefer black.

Out of all the fancy pencils i've tested so far, this is the cheapest. The eraser cap feels a big cheap but doesn't bother me. This company is legendary and obviously is still keeping their name held in high regards.

It is lightweight, but solidly built at the same time. Simple yet very ingenious design.

Orenz is the next generation pentel. Game changer. Really an awesome pencil.

Highlights

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Quality

The product works as well as expected, but you have to be careful not to let the lead get too long, as it breaks very easily.

Pentel has always made a high quality, durable, reliable product.

With the design of the pencil it's impossible to break the lead no matter how hard you try to write.

Instead, the end of the pipe is even with the end of the lead, and the pipe slowly gets pushed back in as the lead wears down.

Price

2mm and for like half the price.

Packaging/appearance

I have attached a picture of the packaging.

Competitiveness

But they are now all lying unused thanks to pentels new orenz.

I’m using colored leads - specifically no repro blue - for work purposes.
