lol.. ts.. i stole your mech pencil.. 

u mean the Penac? yeah, it wobbles a bit. inherent trait of a retractable i guess..

btw i saw quite a bit of love for rotring here.

mine:



only 0.35 is still with me now. 0.5 & 0.7 was stolen from me. 

Hmm, thanks for pointing it out, will put in on my to do list when i get back to KL..
haha no money buy the richfag pensel wan la, just wan a 'more decent' pencil than the common ones we using now.

I missed my notring pencil..where to buy that?

Btw, what's the name of the m. pencil?

Rotring. got one from stock clearance at giant.

I can help you check it out, my office just stone throw away from the curve

waahh, necro thread
It's the graphgear 500..much better grip than my current graphgear 600, though some ppl might find it rough.
Ah I remember this <3 good days
really??? how much  here no giant
rotring 600 ada?

what the difference between rotring 500 and 600? (from user perspective, not specifications)
/k review mali

I had this baby for a very short while (1~2 weeks?) before I lost it!     

Now I'm looking for another mech pencil to replace my beloved..Internut recommends the graphgear 1k, which is basically the higher kelas version of the pencil I lost. It gets mostly good reviews, except for one thing I don't like, retractable sleeve ( i THINK retractable will make the pencil wobbly after much usage, but no complaints from actual owners so far). I prefer to avoid the issue  altogether and get a fixed sleeve anyhow. Any recommendations?
This blog provides some good reviews on some pencils around, but sadly I don't see any of those at my local book store. Most of them suffer from wobbliness anyway which is a major nono for me. My criteria on a good mech pencil are:

1. Absolutely no wobbling
2. Non-retractable
3. Non-rubber grip
4. Metal body
5. Minimalistic, no unnessesary hanky panky ( eg. marble body / gold plating / engraved picasso's signature etc)

So anyway I'm still looking for the best bang for under rm50 WHICH is available to buy in Malaysia ( not limited edition/ vintage/ ultra rare) Post your awesome pencils here!
