Adequate

Pros

Cons

Best Uses

Comments about Staedtler Mars Technico Lead Holder:

PROS:
* Great value.
* Solid construction.
* Built-in lead pointer, if you're desperate. Nice design feature of this is that you can use the pointer without removing it from the holder, so you can sharpen the lead of one holder with the pointer still attached to another holder.

CONS:
* No built-in lead indicator. I wrap tape around these and write the hardness on these, which is kind of ugly and makes switching lead types more tedious.
* Somewhat uncomfortable grip. There's almost no taper and the knurling is quite aggressive. I personally prefer the tapered, non-knurled grip on my Pentel mechanical pencils.

Been using this brand of mechanical pencil for years. The Staedtler leads are clean and pure,, the pencil is well crafted and balanced.. no need to sharpen a pencil again.
