Review: Very nice - nice and heavy which makes it perfect
Review: Disappointed with the pencil. It feels well crafted and has a nice weight to it but there is too much play in the thread which results in the top part being able to move slightly when writing, so it actually ends up feeling pretty flimsy despite the weight. Disappointed as I thought this was going to be worth the money I spent but I wouldn't recommend

*by T***L on 31 December 2025*

Oggettivamente non riesco a trovare imperfezioni, forse il tappino superiore più solido? Molto bello l’oggetto in sé, l’impugnatura e il meccanismo ammortizzato quando si pigia troppo.
