Kuru Toga
The Kuru Toga is my new favorite mechanical pencil.
Grade: A
The key innovation is its new lead advancing mechanism that rotates the lead to always keep the graphite sharp. It works perfectly.
The pencil is light and made of a high quality plastic. The grip is clear so that you can see the rotation mechanism work. It writes pretty smoothly.
The only weakness is that plastic used in the grip is slightly slippery.
The Kuru Toga has replaced the Zebra as the mechanical pencil with which I do my drafting work. Every single person to whom I’ve showed the pencil ends up buying it.
I really want to see Uniball start making premium versions of this pencil (rubber grips, metal, etc). This could be their mechanical pencil platform for the next decade.
Do yourself a favor, buy one.
