Not all that easy to retract the lead. You have to push down on the pen on a hard surface.

I use this pen in the field and it passes the test. A little clumsy to retract but it works for me. Twins to and turn would be better.

Good pencil - Faint lead.

The pencil is great and very cool looking. The lead packaged with the pencil is not the best. It is not a dark lead and skips on some paper types.

Uninspiring

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 April 2018

Colour Name: YellowVerified Purchase

I was actually surprised how insubstantial this product was despite the claims of durability with which the brand is associated. Essentially, a light plastic barrel (rather than resin which suggests something more solid and substantial) and a rudimentary mechanism. My biggest bugbear is the effort one has to go to retract the lead; to do so you literally need to force it back by pushing it down on a hard surface. I can only imagine how inconvenient that would be when out in the hills and rain! Given all this, I'm surprised how much it cost. Do be aware that it comes in a sealed packet and the only way of learning these things is to open that packet and thereby forfeit the right to return it so proceed with care! On a final and more positive note it does come with full sheaf of leads (which are short, by the way) and a couple of replacement rubbers which is thoughtful and helpful.

Good for wood

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 January 2020

Colour Name: BlackVerified Purchase

Got it for joinery, I usually use a scribe for final markings but sometimes a carpenters pencil, or any pencil, is a better option, I really really like this mechanical pencil, dont care if it writes in the rain or not. Being 2H it doesn't come up as dark as you may want on wood, however the fact it doesn’t snap and the eraser actually erases, makes it really nice to use. It comes with enough spares to last me until I loose it and it’s cheap enough I’ll get another when I do and have extra spares haha. My only regret is not getting a bright colour as I thought I may use it as a day to day sketching pencil if It failed as a carpentry pencil. I've done some drawings with it and its ok, I prefer 2B for that type of work but the fact this pencil is 2h (standard carp pencil hardness) really does make it perfect for wood work, the line needs to be consistent over a long scribe with wood and softer darker leads just change shape too fast leaving you with lines that rapidly fatten as you work. The way the tip heavily tapers means you can get it in where you need it much like a carp pencil with it’s flat sides. I really hope write in the Rain will see the opportunity to jump onto another market here and develop a more specialised carp pencil, possible with a fully flat body and a slightly bigger more robust eraser.

Pencil To Long for Notebook Cover

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 February 2020

Colour Name: BlackVerified Purchase

I bought the pencil to complement the weatherproof notebook cover sold by Rite in the Rain for the 3x5 notebook they also sell and their pen (Rite In The Rain Unisex Metal Clicker Pen, Black).
The Pen is well made is brilliant, and at 5 1/4" fits in the notebook cover - as might be expected for items that are going to be used together.
At 5 3/4" this pencil is longer and sticks out above the profile of the notebook cover. First this meant that the eraser gets knocked off. The next problem is that eraser is secured into the metal cap by a crimp that leaves sharp metal edges that act as an abrasive against the lining of any pocket.
A poorly designed and made product that does not meet the quality I expected based on their other products. Until they correct this - DO NOT BUY.

Great

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 June 2020

Colour Name: YellowVerified Purchase

Hard to write a review about a pencil but coupled with the waterproof notebook it does its job. Only thing I am thinking about is that it is advertised as a 'Unisex' pencil which has made me wonder if I have missed out on something by not getting a 'Man's' pencil :-)

Good sturdy pencil, better than the usual 'clutch' pencil.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 June 2018

Colour Name: YellowVerified Purchase

Nice sturdy pencil with a reliable twist mechanism and the eraser is big and soft so works ok. Somebody here complained that you have to push the lead back in after retracting but that's a natural consequence of the strong stable method of gripping the lead in the metal tip. No sweat, just press the tip of the lead on a firm surface and back it goes (if you have wound it back first)
