The Prime Timber Brass lead holder is an awesome mechanical pencil for those who like a broad stroke or feel like they can't use regular mechanical pencils because they tend to break the lead. Every day one of us at Write Notepads & Co. uses this pencil; it is easy to use and effortless to sharpen when you need it. Since we are pro-Made in the USA, you know the Prime Timber 2.0 has to impress us. The Prime Timber is made in Japan with a barrel of California incense cedar (the same as a Blackwing) and holds a 2mm lead, so it writes just like a standard pencil. It comes with a sharpener so you can get the point on it.
Measures 6 5/16" long, approximately 3/8" diameter.
Comes with one B grade lead.
Packaged with a sharpener.
Made in Japan. Made with California Cedar
Choose from the available colors (main barrel color).
I have a thing for pencils and mechanical pencils. The PENCO Prime Timber Brass is part pencil, part mechanical pencil and part lead holder. It is light weight and has a real pencil feel because of the use of wood and that slick pencil paint we are so familiar with. It advances the lead like a typical mechanical pencil but has a thicker lead than the typical mechanical pencil. It does feel a lot like writing with a pencil. My only worry is that one of my students may grab it off my desk and try to sharpen it!

This is a really comfortable pencil, utilizing a thicker lead which sharpens to a nice point, laying down a nice graphite writing. I love the retro look, and the simple push button deployment of the ink. I am looking forward to getting a lot of everyday use out of this pencil.

Its my first time with a 2mm lead pencil. I like this type of pencil however the missed details on this one take away some of the quality I desire at this price range. For example, under the brass clicker I can see the end grain of the wood body. I keep looking at it wishing they had painted the end grain. Also, the transition where the brass tip and wood body meet could be refined - the wood isn't flush to the brass; while writing I feel the little wood edge and it's distracting. Overall the pencil is well balanced and the length is perfect. I liked that it came with a sharpener.

This is a great writing instrument. I love the 2 mm clutch mechanism. What a good idea. And so well implemented.
