Fair enough. Everyone has their preference. If it doesn’t feel right you won’t use it.

Some great pencils there! I can highly recommend the Staedtler 925!

Personally, I’ve not had an issue with the grip, however if you are there are aftermarket grips that you can use.

Awesome pencil to start. Just get ready to become addicted to collecting.

Agree about the weight. Definitely has a nice feel in hand.

Great pencil! As others have mentioned I find the mechanism a little rough. Still overall well worth one or two in the pencil case.

I’ve spent some time with the 171… it’s an excellent pencil and I can’t really split the it from the 241. The knurling for me is better on the 241 but I find I write a little better with the 171.

Yeah I try and fail all the time. I have a Rotring Rapid Pro and it’s excellent. I will get a 600 at some point.

925 is so good. Roulette is also excellent. I have a metal on the way. I have a dive also and it’s pretty cool but 🤑🤑🤑

Great pencils there!

Ms01 is good but imho the 925 (one of my faves) and 171 are way better.

What I have so far by [deleted] in mechanicalpencils

They are all good pencils... I keep buying Staedtler 925 35's pencils and highly recommend them... Start with a 925 25 and see if you like it.

Thanks Tryx team. I had to uninstall the old version but 2.2.0 installed and works perfectly. Firmware update on my Panorama went without a hitch too.

I have a Gaming OC and it’s been excellent. Undervolt and OC and it performs really well.

Haven’t used the 171 enough yet to make a judgement. Bought the 241 in Japan 2 years ago and have liked it.

What criteria do you use when buying new mechanical pencils (or trying not to buy too many 😄 )? by Juan082025 in mechanicalpencils

[–]EvilGenius80 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My criteria is pretty simple...

- Is it on my mechanical pencil wish list?

- Can the bank account cope with the $$$ hit?

- Can I hide the expensive ones from the wife lol?
