Cons

But this flaw makes it a dealbreaker and nearly unusuable. This pencil is so deceiving. I’m not sure if this is intentional.

Lead holder doesn't fit staedtler's own rotary pointer tool. Breaks often. Lead gets jammed and won’t come out.

The cheap rattling near the reservoir cap is annoying.

Quality


Well made, out of lightweight metal, build to last.


Sturdy all metal construction with perfect weight, balance, and feel in my hand.


The mechanism quits advancing pencil lead, the rubber grips get really sticky, just no "quality" feel to them.


The awkward workaround is to sharpen all the leads in the 780c lead holders + the 502 pointer or use the 780c integrated sharpe...  Read More

Competitiveness


5mm mechanical pencils to compare:- uni kuru toga roulette : haven't touched this one in months.

    This is a pro writing tool from the pros


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This is the first 2mm lead holder that i have owned with an incremental lead advance and wasn’t sure that i was going to like it compared to the standard drop clutch


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    But after a few minutes of use i am sold


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    After 30 seconds of use i was convinced that this was the greatest lead hold i had ever used


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    And then things took a turn for the worse…


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The problem is and this is a major problem the diameter of the pencil is too large to fit into the staedler pointer


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    In fact it is too large to fit into any pointer that i can find


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Also the clutch is not strong enough to prevent the lead from slipping when attempting to sharpen the lead with a bladed pointer
