  • Excellent quality — perfect pencils for my high schooler
Style: Thick Point Size: 5 Count (Pack of 1)
I picked up this pack of BIC Velocity mechanical pencils for my high schooler, and they’ve been a great addition to his school supplies. The 0.9mm lead is a big advantage — it writes smoothly and doesn’t snap constantly like thinner lead does, which makes a huge difference during class and homework. What we like: Smooth, dark writing that looks clean and consistent on paper. Thicker 0.9mm lead means fewer breaks, even when he presses harder while taking notes. Comfortable grip, which he really appreciates during longer assignments or when he’s working through math problems. Built-in eraser works well and doesn’t smear. Good variety of colors — not a big deal, but he likes being able to tell pencils apart. Great value for a pack of five, especially since pencils tend to disappear throughout the school year. Overall, these pencils are durable, reliable, and easy for him to use every day. If you have a student who goes through a lot of pencils or needs something tougher than the standard mechanical pencils, these are a great choice. Highly recommend. ... show more

  • Best Mechanical Pencils
I was given the opportunity by BIC to try out these pencils for free. This review is my honest opinion. I was not paid for it. These mechanical pencils are the best I've ever tried!!! At first glance you would think these are really pens. They have a great thick barrel and I love the grip for extra support and comfort. Gone are those mechanical pencils that I remember as kid. Remember the boring colored one piece plastic ones that were so skinny. Thankfully I was given 2 packages to try. Once my daughter and her friends saw them they stole them for the start of school. My daughter loves these pencils. She says they feel like a pen but if you make a mistake it's ok because it's really pencil. The girls also love the fun bright colors the pencils come in. They were fighting over colors!!! So these pencils definitely have the 15 year old girls attention. As for functionality these perform above what I expected. They write so smooth and 1 click of the pencil goes very far. If you are worried about breaking the lead it's not easy. I really had to apply a strong amount of pressure for the tip to finally break. The eraser works great. It doesn't leave any residue behind and I find it thoroughly eraser the lead. As for grip these pencils are very comfortable to hold. They are definitely thicker than the old mechanical pencils from when I was a kid. They have a comfort grip at the bottom that is nice and soft. The only thing I didn't do was refill the pencil. I love that they give you extra lead but I didn't need to add any so I can't tell you if that is easy to do or not. They really are wonderful and I will be purchasing them in the future!! ... show more

  • READ THIS FOR SOME EXCELLENT ADVICE.
Style: Thick Point Size: 5 Count (Pack of 1)
Best I have found. One reason is that the reinforcing tip around the lead retracts if you press the lead back up into the pencil with your finger while holding down the eraser. That way, I can safely carry a mechanical pencil in my side blue jeans pocket instead of my shirt pocket, so I look a little less like a geek. Now for a bit of advice: 1; I strongly advise 4B or darker lead. While these pencils work fine with standard 2BH lead they come with, I find it requires too much pressure sometimes like when writing on the back of a photograph or even a grocery list in your pocket. 4B without the H is far darker than the standard 2BH made to resemble the wooden pencil you used to chew on that had lead paint and why your spouse says you're so stupid now. 2: buy the 0.9 MM version of these for even better performance with the 4B lead as the increased diameter makes the lead stronger as well as a more bold letter. i'm so impressed with myself I'm searching for 6B .09MM lead, so let me know if you find any because I have not up to this point. That is the shade often used by artist for sketching, but I have only found it in wooden sketch pencil form. Pokes a hole in my pocket. ... show more

If you are a light writer than this the pencil that is good to use. The lead is dark enough that the writing is still readable.
