I thought I was the only one who wasn't wowed by the rotating lead of the Kuru toga. Like you, I just got used to adjusting my grip when needed. I'm still trying really hard to like this pencil while still hoping to find my old drafting pencils I've misplaced.

[@Mustangracerx2005]

Same here. I'm used to adjusting my grip. I hate the spongy feeling when you press it to a paper.

[@DrawingTechnical]

I've been using the Kuru toga pencil for probably 2 years now. The rotating function of the lead is completely useless.

Rotating the pencil after a bit of use is a thing I do on instinct by this point. I have no use for the Kuru Togas.

I'd really recommend checking out the Pentel Kerry. I've used one since 2007, it literally has been everyday carry before I even knew what that meant. Found erasers in almost all mechanical pencils suck so I've grown accustomed to keeping a stick eraser with me on my person and the duo are so useful.

[@hu3bman]

3:17 - OOOOOooooooh, so THAT'S where you put your eraser cover when you're using the eraser! Thanks A LOT for the great insight bro! 👍

[@MitchellHudson]

The Kuru Toga Uni Roulette is the best of these. The secret advantage you missed is that rotating tip has a little bit of spring to it. If you drop it the the little metal sleeve that the lead extends from doesn’t get bent. I’ve use some many different mechanical pencils and usually this this where they end their life. I have never bent the tip on the Kuru toga Uni Roulette! The eraser is not an issue, pros use an eraser pencil, they don’t waste time pulling the end cap off and putting it back on again.

[@lachlanbell8390]

I only just found out that eraser pencils were a thing, but I've still never used the tiny eraser on the pencil. Too much of a pain.

[@horvenlopez7539]

I am eyeing to buy one. so your saying its durable if dropped numerous times?

[@sandrafield9813]

I'm not sure why the weirdo below went on a strange rant at a mechanical pencil review, but I personally think you were great! You sure saved me some mechanical pencil drama, which I have NO time for at the moment. Seriously, who cares if "dope or nope" isn't original. That's how trends start. Saying the word "cool", or "bruh" isn't original either, but tons of people use it and it gets the point across. Thanks for the review.

[@duck114]

I think the heavier drafting mechanical pencils tend to be because after many hours of studying you kind of lose the strenght to write and also because the thinner leads are usually scartchy and the weight kind of helps to soften it. That's just my personal opinion on the matter and also why I like the graph pentels that are heavier. Great video, btw. Another mechanical pencil that is almost as affordable as bic with all the features plus solves the lead break problem is the pentel P203, P205, P207 and P209 (the final digit is the mm of the lead), and the BRW version is even lightweighter!

[@TheGreatAmphibian]

The p203 is a great pencil. But I write all day with more comfort with the Staedtler 925. It’s 17g instead of 10g but the grip is a little wider and much, much more positive- so it actually takes less effort to hold and manipulate. At least for my hand. But the work in writing definitely isn’t holding up a pencil but the sustained effort of gripping.

[@Alex-zq2yx]

Nice, I can't stand the roulette's wobble. But love the graphgear 1000, I don't find it heavy at all, its actually my lightest pen/pencil (i use all metal pens). The wobble isnt noticeable when I write, the grip is more than fine for me! The rubber makes it comfortable and the knurl doesnt "scratch" dead skin from my hands.. hahaha. I dont have sweaty hands so I guess it plays a role? I like the fact that the graphgear 1000 outside body is all metal, and the retractable mechanism is so satisfying. It looks professional as well, although it could look better.

[@greekveteran2715]

The woble isn't noticable with any wobly pencil, but it's there and it shows in the final product. You can't spot the imprecision easily when using it. Try something like the GraphGear 500 next to it. (The one without the lead indicator on the button) Difference is noticable on any kind of professional use, both technical or free drawing.

[@anthonystevens6999]

I heavily recommend using the graph gear 500, it’s amazing

[@BCfightan]

I'm glad you gave the downsides of the kurutoga, as so many people had such great reviews, and it was just disappointing to me. The wobble and sponginess of the lead felt HORRIBLE. I use the pentel sharp currently, and it is so great and solid feeling. Would recommend if you want a solid, cheap pencil.

[@sph9564]

The thing to note is that he was using the kuru toga advance which has a much higher lead downward bounce and spin, normal kuru togas are much more subtle in rotation

[@riluens]

Agreed, it was a waste of money for me.

[@rainmannoodles]

The Kuru Toga is great for writing but not good for drawing long continuous lines. They don’t allow the lead to rotate (since rotations happen on each down/up cycle) so it completely defeats the purpose. For sketching, the Rotring 600 is king.

[@freeudon]

After watching this video, I got the Pentel Graph 1000. I can definitely verify that it's a great mechanical pencil!

[@ThrashAD720]

Using an expensive pencil wont make you any more skillful, but if you enjoy using it more than a cheap pencil you will become skillful as you use it more.

[@aa-tx7th]

i have a 0.3mm pentel graphgear 1000 the eraser is so useless i just use a seperate clicky eraser and of course the lead is so thin it breaks at least once a day but it is by far far FAR and away the best mech pencil i have ever had in 20+ years of drawing professionally. everything else IMO about that pencil is absolutely perfect. the weight, premium feel, premium build, durability, reliability, grip, ergonomics, finish, mechanical movements, repairability, the teardown, ect. are all VASTLY superior to the dozens if not hundreds of other mech pencils ive collected over my life.

[@sntdc2017]

I have the import graph1000 in .5 and .3, I love em. But I still go to my pentel graphlet set. You should try those out as well.

[@ephemer3968]

Out of all of the Kura Toga mechanical pencils, I prefer the Alpha Gel one because it’s nice for those who have a “death grip” (you tend to grip the pencil much harder than someone else.)

[@robfrydryck127]

The Kuru Toga Engine was hard to draw with doing art work, becoase of the reaction mechanic. For normal printing it is good. You also have to keep it vertical. The specal featire fails when you draw at an angle. I like the Nicpro Black Art Mechanical Pencil set better. It is very nice, and comes in a set

[@vowthatwasepiokepiok8506]

This comment made me happy

[@SaintFredrocks]

I had to do a lot of drafting in school, and not one mechanical pencil had a good eraser. Their main point is to keep the lead in I guess. It was accepted that one bought a good eraser for erasing and a good pencil for the drawing and writing. I have to tell you that you really missed the mark with the Kuru Toga Roulette: it is a fantastic pencil. I got one recently for under $10 and it blows away the $25 pencils I used in the early 90s.

[@ATKPerc]

Kurotoga has a really cool mechanism, but I will add that it feels a little springy to write with and therefore makes it hard to write very precisely

Recommend Rotring 800. For someone like myself that draws very tense and with my wrist, rotring is a very solid pencil, pun intended. I know those are bad habits, but i don’t really want to change the things that work for me so it’s a pencil that fits my style. So if you’re the same way, maybe give it a chance

[@jamesaritchie1]

I love the Pentel 200 series drafting pencils. They were what all the professional around me used, after trying far more expensive pencils. All of us would put slip on grips of one kind or another on them, and nearly every other type of pencil. We had rolls of silicon tubing that we would snip off for grips. Such grips are not just for kids. Too, a piece of double sided Scotch tape works wonders with a slippery grip. But you're dead wrong about the Graph Gear pencils. In the first place, stop using the erasers that come on pencils, except in an emergency. That's amateur city. Buy a good erases, or an eraser stick, and use that. In the second place, Graph Gear pencils are not too heavy. They're the perfect weight for writing, and for doing real work. It always amuses me when someone complains that a pencil or pen is too heavy. There are hundreds of jobs where the worker has to hold and use a tool that weighs several pounds all day long. I grew up working jobs like that. If you're smart enough to learn how to use a pencil or pen correctly, the weight of the instrument will do most of the work for you. Pentel makes great pencils. So does Pilot. But the Graph Gear pencils are the best out there for most work. For fancier settings, splurge a little and buy a mechanical pencil that actually looks fitting in a business situation. On the cheap end, but a Pilot Dr. Grip. On the expensive end, buy a Montblanc. If you simply hate such pencils, use a Graph Gear. They actually look like they cost a lot of money, even though they're dirt cheap. But, really, stop using the erasers that come on good mechanical pencils, unless you know what they're for. Very thin erases, such as most drafting pencils have, should only be used when a very tiny bit of precision erasing needs to be done. Want to change a short, fine line, use it. Want to erase one letter in a work, use it. Otherwise, buy a good eraser and use it.

[@greekveteran2715]

I get better performance from the Pentel GraphGear 500, than the P205, It's more accurate which means, you can draw a perfect round circle and it will look like you used a compass to create it. Pentel P200 can't do that. They also feel very cheap and the numerous sharp edges on the top of that pencil, cut into my hand all the time, which is very annoing. I use the P205 for taking a note once in a while, and the P203 is great for detailed drawing. However, my main pencil which does 90% of the drawing even writing, is the GraphGear 500. Even the letters I can make when writing, are more rounded and cleaner looking, than any other pencil I've tried.

[@k1m3l33]

Pencils and accessories are very subjective, there's a lot of models of pencils and they all surprisingly write. You just gotta pick what's best for you.

Well I have a Pentel Graphgear 1000 for a year, and I have no problem with it. Yes it has that eraser cap flaw, it is heavy, and it does make the tip wobble due to wear and tear but if you take great care with it and go easy writing on it then you’ll be fine. Also, if you guys want a 0.7 Mechanical pencil, I suggest you guys try Pentel Champ mechanical pencil. It has great grip, removable eraser, quite affordable (costs around $14-8 depending on the Store), and found almost everywhere. The only flaw is the Grip does wear and tear, and the Lead is a bit Weak and can break.

For writing, Id' choose something else, however, the Gg500 isn't bad for writing either, it's just the best for drawing/sketching. Pilot S20 2nd and Staedtler 925 comes 3d in my book.

The winner is not retractable, which mean more bent tips and getting poked, not good.

I was here when you had 64 k views. you made me get the pentel graph gear 1000. seriously, from like 2 years ago.

[@DinnerForkTongue]

I can't believe no one mentioned it in all of the comments. You are exposing far too much lead on the Bic. 1mm or so of lead out the tip is more than enough for tracing lines and writing if your grip is good and light. I only broke leads in school because my grip was atrocious; once I learned better I never broke one while writing or tracing again.

[@pgc2455]

I was surprised that you include the Bic Xtra pencil. Having tried many of the more expensive mech pencils I keep coming back to the Bic. Its so light and so cheap and just works. If I lose it I will just grab another one. It is a triumph of good engineering design and cost. It may not work for everyone but thats why there are so many different mech pencil models available. The buyer is king of the marketplace.

[@DAV1D_77]

I would have to recommend the Rotring 600 as the best mechanical pencil I've used. It's made of brass, with a simple design and it is very nice to use. It also just looks super cool. It may be $25, but its definitely worth it for a pencil that can last forever.

[@raybearden9594]

Nice whip @ 6:12. I love the spring mechanism of the Uni 207 and Chroma. I have been on the fence about the Kurus because I hate pencils that don't have a twist out eraser. I used to have a big problem with sweaty hands when I was younger, then I was shown the way. I started with 2B lead and moved to 3B all in a 0.5. Softer lead allows you to write dark without much pressure and you have to go easy on the 0.5 or it will break. It takes a little getting used to, but worth it. It makes erasing much cleaner, too. I how switched all the way to 4B, but can't get it in 0.5, so I am running 0.7mm.

I don’t know why but when I use mechanical pencils to draw it’s easier than a wooden pencil and I use them to shade i know Bc the lines stay the same but when your drawing with wooden pencils eventually the pencil gets dull and you gotta sharpen it

[@DinnerForkTongue]

Of course pencils get dull and wide-pointed as you use them,it's natural of a cone-shaped wide lead. Same thing for lead holders. What's about it that "you don't know why"?
