OHTO Mechanical Wood Pencil Type Mini Sharp with Eraser & Clip 0.5mm, Natural Color Body (APS-350ES-Natural)

Ultra slim and good length...I can leave it in my journal or planner and it adds no bulk.

I have small hands and this is too small. More of a novelty item. The eraser is small. Gave it 4 stars because it only holds one piece of lead. Mechanics work well and the lead is sturdy when I write. It’s a cute little pencil.

I love this pencil, so much yes replacement erasers would be a bonus, but it is perfect in it’s length and its weight and I especially love how it’s ridged for a perfect grip. This is my favorite pencil.

Eraser breaks off with first use

Neat compact wooden 0.5mm mechanical pencil. Super lightweight and feels great when writing and drawing. Pocket size allows an easy fit.

Th design is not made to stay on the book ages, it slips. The lead breaks easily.

Very well built, feels good in the hand when writing, feels like it can go through many pages of writing.

Ok, I admit, I didn’t bother to double check the length dimensions of this pencil before hastily ordering it along with other products. At first I was dumbfounded. I thought Amazon had cheated me, but lo and behold, I discovered it was a result of my own error. I laughed at concept of this tool. Its size, its workings. I pondered and questioned its usefulness. Over a few days, it grew on me. Now I journal and note take with it regularly.Does it have the dexterity of a usual pen or pencil we’re used to handling on a daily basis? No. Is it meant to do the heavy lifting of frenzied writing of reports and research documents? I think not. This little device, while still functional and useful, is more of an aesthetic, then anything…to be handled with ‘kid gloves’. Gently. Brains, not Brawn. Appreciate it for its simplicity, maybe even its practicality.If you dare measure this mini pencil up against other writing instruments in your arsenal, expecting seamless performance with unheralded durability, you may find yourself beating your head against the wall in frustration.Oh, and the erasure…just let him be. I’m almost certain he’s just there for looks. Don’t try to put him into service or even give him a test run. He’ll just break off, roll away from you and you may never see him again. Use a bulk eraser or a clicker-style one. Pentel makes good ones.
