Hi Guys,

Like the title says i am after a propelling pencil.

I currently use a cheapo Staedtler Mars Micro 0.5mm.

Its a bit battered now and I fancy something new, I use it a lot so something comfy, not too heavy.

Budget is around £25-30.

First £60 on a kettle and now £30 on a pencil; not sure which is worse

Uni-ball Kuru Toga ~£10.

Not sure why you'd need to spend £25-30?

Too cheap, has to be £25-£30 apparently.

Pentel P365, £8.

Well weighted and comfy grip, looks stylish and does what it needs to do. It's also not stupidly over priced.

I use this one and absolutely love it - Faber-Castell Ambition Mechanical Pencil Brushed 0.7mm in black. It's around £35 online.

Really well balanced & pretty light
