- Reviewed in Canada on September 13, 2024Verified PurchaseWorks like a charm. Writes on wet wood, in the rain, with nice clear lines. Durable and lightweight. Fits nicely behindy eat. I will be buying one of these again for sure.

Reviewed in Canada on January 14, 2024Verified PurchaseC'est crayon se tient bien dans la main et vu qu'il y a deux crayons, cela nous permet de mettre deux types de graphites différents pour travailler. J'aurais aimé qu'il y est différentes couleurs.
- Reviewed in Canada on July 21, 2025Verified PurchaseVery nice quality. Would have been nice if the top had a built in sharpener. But sandpaper or a knife will do
- Reviewed in Canada on September 30, 2023Verified PurchaseNice pencil for contractors and artist. Bought for my fiance for shading as to have more surface area and not run out of lead so quickly.
- Reviewed in Canada on April 23, 2024Verified Purchaseits perfect it came with two pencils with lead in them and also came with Three extra 5.6mm leads overall have no problem with them
- Reviewed in Canada on January 3, 2025Verified Purchase(I use these for sketches, just as added context since the packaging advertises for its use in trades.)
I like this compared to art based brands for a few reasons: It fits better in larger hands/is more ergonomic. The grip is triangular and there are textures for added friction, which makes for a stronger grip. There are two in one package. The colors and build are pleasing. Very smooth release/clamp.
Things to note: they are unfortunately made of plastic, though. Also there is no built-in sharpener in the cap like some other models might have.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buen producto
Verified PurchaseMuy buen producto, me gustó el diseño y la calidad
- Mark NicolettiReviewed in the United States on April 14, 2025
5.0 out of 5 stars Great Pencil for Wetnotes (with one caveat)
Verified PurchaseFirst, I really like the pencil for my wetnotes. They work great and are easy to hold. However, be sure to rinse them really well after a dive. While Graphite isn't supposed to be able to rust, something certainly happened that looked like rust and the pencil stopped working.
UPDATE. I reached out to the company to ask about the problem I had with the pencil. They suggested that I rinse it with clean water after I dive so that there is no salt build up. And, they sent me a replacement for the one that stopped working. Great Customer Service.

MARCELO REYNOSOReviewed in Mexico on February 27, 2024
4.0 out of 5 stars Bien...
Verified PurchaseLo único será mantener la punta tal como viene de paquete, para lo que lo utilizo ese es un pequeño punto en contra para mi (lo uso diariamente para tomar notas en mi trabajo que es de oficina), otro es la parte de que la puntilla sale totalmente al tocar o presionar sin querer la parte superior del lápiz, será nada más cuestión de acostumbrarse, y por último agregaría un borrador. Eso es por lo que le pongo 4 estrellas únicamente, pero es una excelente opción, obviamente y entonces mi opinión es más de la funcionalidad que yo le doy y no para lo que fue diseñado originalmente.
