This one spins the lead as you write so it stays sharp!
Might order the fancier metal one is this one proves to be good. But this one was available locally.

How does that work? Is it battery powered and continuous, or is the spinning intermittent?
oh I’ve seen it’s mechanism on YouTube. it has a toothed gear that rotates with every press. so every stroke of the pencil rotates it a little.
Huh, that’s a really cool idea
Id never believed it would work nicely if people in this thread hadn’t said it’s great
With initial testing it seems to work quite well. I don’t notice the ~1mm the lead pushed in when I hit the paper.
It’s 40 “clicks” per rotation.
Some are 40 and some are 20. 40 works well for traditional Japanese writing, but it isn’t quick enough for cursive.
