Review on ✏️ Drawing and Sketching Set: Leda Art Supply Mechanical Pencil with 5B Lead Refill (12-Piece) and Sharpener by Karla Richter

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Hard case pencil. Some flaws.

This is a solid lead holder. He's in the lead. You can write or draw with it. I have all the Staedtler pencils I will ever need, so I decided to expand a little and try others. Although I don't think I'll ever use it much. I'm deducting a star for a combination of flaws I can't help but notice. 1) Where plastic meets metal they aren't flush and I don't like that. I can see how uncomfortable long-term use can get when the finger is repeatedly poked with a sharp plastic corner. 2) It doesn't look like Leda makes a rotating mine sharpener (or if it does, I can't find one) like a Staedtler, otherwise I'd buy it. It's not quite as good as my Staedtler holder in this sharpener, which is understandable. Any of these shortcomings alone would be enough to be overlooked and knocked out of this 5 star rating. For me, however, it keeps the pencil from loading HB or 4B or whatever graphite I'm using, instead turning it into something like a black pencil lead that I almost never use.

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Disappear
