Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

It feels really durable and i'm confident it's going to last me a long time. The only real caveat is the vulnerability of the lead pipe (sleeve) at the tip. I am a fountain pen lover, so i'm definitely a fan of nice writing instruments.

Quality


And in typical japanese style, the quality remained high.


It is a well built and sturdy product.

Price


The cadmium yellow was a very limited release, so now opportunists are price gouging at 4 times the original price.

Competitiveness


From there, this new bold hexagonal brass bodied & stainless steel tip mechanical pencil would serve as a benchmark for the competition.


I recently purchased a rotring mechanical pencil rose gold 600, and i have to say i'm so impressed!


The first rotring 600 came out in 1989.

    If it is bent too far it will render the pencil inoperable


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    If the brass casing for the lead is slightly bent you may be able to use a leatherman tool to straighten the tip


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Offered in silver and black colors only it remained unchanged for many years


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There are too many reviews out there already so ill avoid being repetitive


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It is a bit on the heavy side where some might be bothered by it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But if it was a serious problem this model wouldve gone extinct long ago


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    While its made of sturdy steel the mass of the pencil can create added momentum when dropped and if the tip hits first theres a good chance itll bend


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Sometimes it can be recovered with a little careful bending back into center
