About this item
- The Kuru Toga Series From Uni-Ball Mitsubishi Has A Core Rotation Mechanism That Can Automatically Rotate The Pencil Lead As You Write. The Lead Is Twisted Through A Spring-Loaded Clutch, It Works By Twisting Incrementally Every Time You Lift The Pencil Up (I.E. During Printing Words, Etc.). This Allows A Uniform Wearing Of The Pencil Lead So That It Always Remains As A Pointed Tip. So You Can Easily Avoid The Usual Problem Of Using Pencils
- At First The Pencil Has A Sharp Point, But After That When You Continue To Write The Point Is Worn Down, And Your Line Widths Are Smudgy And Thicker. Sometimes The Tip Of The Angled Point Can Scratch Or Catch On The Paper. The Lead Is Easy To Break Due To Some Positions Of The Tip And The Angles Of The Tip
- But Using Kuru Toga Pencil, You Will Not Have To Face The Above Problems. You Are Effectively Using Only 50% Of The Lead Area That You Were Previously Using With Your Old Mechanical Pencil. Thus, A 0.3/0.5 Mm Kuru Toga Will Write Incredibly Thin Lines And Have Less Breakage Than A Standard 0.3/0.5 Mm Mechanical Pencil

As a pencil enthusiast who values precision and innovation, this mechanical pencil has exceeded all my expectations.
Right from the first use, the Kurutoga Roulette Model impressed me with its unique and ingenious mechanism. The self-sharpening feature is an absolute game-changer.

Whether I'm jotting down notes, sketching intricate designs, or working on technical drawings, the Kurutoga Roulette consistently delivers impeccable results. The lead advances smoothly, and the lines remain consistent in thickness throughout.
The silver design exudes a sense of elegance and sophistication. The pencil feels comfortable in the hand, with a weight that strikes a perfect balance between sturdy construction and effortless writing. The build quality is outstanding, reflecting uni's commitment to excellence.
The mechanical mechanism of the Kurutoga Roulette Model is reliable and durable. I've experienced minimal instances of lead breakage, thanks to its thoughtful engineering. The retractable tip also adds to its portability and convenience.
In conclusion, the uni Mechanical Pencil Kurutoga Roulette Model in Silver is a five-star writing instrument that has won my heart with its precision, innovation, and elegant design.

- Reviewed in Canada on August 16, 2020Verified PurchaseThe pencil is made of metal body. Grip and the pen body itself are definitely made of aluminum or some other metallic material. Except the rear cap. So, overall, this pen looks similar to one of those professional drafting pencils such as Graphgear 1000, or rOtring 800, etc. However that Kuru Toga mechanism causes a bit of weirdness when writing with it.
As you know, Kuru Toga mechanism is supposed to 'rotate' the lead when you apply pressure to any writing surfaces. The mechanism actually absorbs a bit of pressure to fuel the rotation mechanism. So, lead is destined to be moving vertically which gives impression of instability and cheaply made mechanism when writing. But note that most of unstable economic pencils feel weird due to plastic clutch which is known for lead slippage and their cheaply made caps fails to prevent microscopic sideway displacement of leads. But in this pencil's case, there is almost no sideway movement(comparable to most of expensive drafting pencils) but only the vertical one.
So, in terms of writing experience, the pencil is good enough. Even the lead rotation helps to keep your lines constant without even needing to rotate pencil to maintain sharp lines. At first, I felt the lead gets ground a bit faster than the rotation but the mechanism eventually caught up to most comfortable degree. I believe that this brief mismatched feeling encouraged the manufacturer to develop 2x faster rotation which is implemented in those newer models: Pipe slide, Advance, etc.
One gripe for me is the lead cap and eraser. Lead cap seems to be made of plastic and it feels overwhelmingly light and such thin plastics are known to be breaking easily. So, do some extra care. Also, as other Uni mechanical pencils, the eraser is pretty unstable when erasing stuffs.
- Reviewed in Canada on September 13, 2024Verified PurchaseI¡¯ve really enjoyed using this pencil. It feels solidly built, and writes really nicely. I was tired of cheap mechanical pencils frequently breaking on me, and this one seems like a great solution. Solid product and I look forward to continually using it.

5.0 out of 5 stars tip stays sharp at the middle of the lead
Verified PurchaseWhy did you pick this product vs others?:
i like the way it keeps the tip sharp at the center of the lead. it doesn't take any pressure to make it turn. the grip and feel are nice. the metal grip area is light but not cheap feeling.?

5.0 out of 5 stars Best mechanical pencil ever
Verified PurchaseIt¡¯s such a great pencil and writes so smoothly that I sometimes forget that it¡¯s a pencil.
The rotating mechanism inside ensures that it always stays in shape and never feels scratchy on any paper I have tried it on. Bought it for my daily planner, but now I use it in Murdle as it¡¯s really easy to erase.
It feels really comfortable to hold as you¡¯re writing or drawing. Works perfectly well with my mini aluminium ruler.
