>>90500You mean to crease with?It says so right? A mechanical pencil without the lead.It's a "pencil" that's hollow and you put the "lead" (graphite, the stuff you write with, very thin rods) inside, close the back and then when you push the back, the "lead" comes out at the front a bit. So you don't have to sharpen it (only refill it).And to crease, you don't put in the "lead" so it won't write.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_pencil
lol, sorry I should be more specific. I want to know the actual brand. I like the concept of mechanical pencils, but there always too cheap(low quality), this one seems all metal, and very sexy.
>>90503The cheapest mechanical pencil you can find will probably still be strong/good enough to make a crease in a piece of paper. ;)There must be hundreds of thousands different mechanical pencils around, plastic ones and fully metal ones. But can't you ask in stores where you live if they sell/know where to buy the type of mechanical pencil you want..? It's not exactly the kind of thing that's so rare that you need /po/ to find you an internet shop to have it shipped over seas, I'm sure they sell one on your continent...
>>90503if you want a sturdy mechanical pencil, get a zebra m-301. or m-402, but that has a rubberized grip, which i dont like. the m-301 is harsh, and unyielding to the touch, which i enjoy.
I don't want it to crease paper, I just what it cause its damn tight. Yeah if I don't find it on the net tonight I'll ask when I go get some supplies at the store tomorrow.
Its a Rapidomatic
>>90508Truth, Zebra makes the best writing utensils in the universe.
