Pros & Cons
Pros
Pen is light, comfortable to hold, and writes very smooth. Even beats out higher priced pencils. Much more colorful rendition, which i greatly enjoy writing up labs and mathematical proofs.
Kuru toga mechanical pencil is the best i have ever owned. The pencil looks very well made and really does rotate!
Rotating mechanism keeps a really nice point. It isn't like a sharpened pencil point but it also isn't a sloped lead point. I am used to pentel's quicker clicker, so the end lead advancement is a bit annoying.

Price

Shipping
Awesome product it came in safely and it came in earlier than expected this is the product to get.
Arrival time bit log, but worth it.
Packaging/appearance
It keeps an ultra fine tip and it comes in a convenient little package.
Competitiveness
I purchased both the standard model and the aluminum looking "premium" model and by far this one is better.
