The 800 Mechanical Pencils are in the mid-range of Pentel's classicly designed Graph Gear line. They have a metal grip inlaid with soft, latex-free pads, and the barrel weight is perfectly balanced for more control when writing. The 4mm tip design makes it ideal for use with rulers and templates.
Each pencil is pre-loaded with Pentel Super Hi-Polymer HB lead that never needs sharpening, is super strong and produces a clear dark line.
Barrel colors differ by lead size: .3mm – Brown, .5mm – Black, .7mm – Blue, .9mm – Yellow
FLAX art & design is a genuine Oakland institution. Opening their first store in 1938, they're now on their 3rd generation of family ownership and have recently relocated to a beautiful new Downtown location that could best be described as a "toy store for artists." 80 years in and they're still putting art and community front and center. You can visit them at their own site here, or find more of their products right here on Keep Oakland Alive.
