When we think of a mechanical pencil, the image is a hexagonal black tube with a colored clip and a bright white eraser. It’s what we grew up with, and it’s what we know. But PENXO changes everything with a 2mm pencil that’s much more in line with our matured design sensibilities and minimalistic tastes. Each “2mm lead holder pencil” is precision milled from a single block of aircraft grade aluminum for a durable, unibody writing tool. Push your thumb or finger down near the tip to split the two halves and activate the quick lead release–kind of like a custom pair of tweezers that holds lead in the middle. This design also makes it incredibly easy to switch colors, view the lead hardness and see how much writing/drafting/designing you can do before you’re out.
