Overview:


The Kuru Toga is one of our absolute favorite mechanical pencils. It rotates the pencil lead as you write using only the kinetic energy created by your pencil strokes. The rotating lead results in a uniformly sharp point (instead of the chisel-tip that can develop) which means neater lines and a stronger lead. The grip is even clear so you can see the rotating mechanism as you write. It is no wonder that our customers love this pencil.


Features:


  • .5 or .3 mechanical pencil lead
  • Comes in six colors: green, black, pink, silver, blue, and orange
  • Self-rotating to keep lines as precise as possible

Disappointing. I've had the pencil less than two weeks and it has already stopped rotating. It looks cool, but basically is not much different than your average disposable mechanical pencil. Definitely not worth the $$.

All the great things that everyone has written about this Kuro Toga mechanical pencil is true. The only reason that I didn't give it 5 stars is that while I like it a lot, it won't replace my Kuro Toga Roulette (metal body) pencil. I was hoping to find a cheaper alternative, but personally I prefer the size and weight of the metal body. This is a great alternative for my pencil case though and I love the bright colors.

Best mechanical pencil ever made! The rotation device which you can see on through the transparent grip portion rotates the pencil lead so it never gets that sharp edge that can cut through the paper you're writing on. You can tell it rotates by looking at the little white logo. This is a unique feature that i havent seen on any other pencil. I do a lot of studying and pencil in a lot of my notes on my review texts. So this pencil was a must have for me. The design and the colors are very attractive. I owe 2 of them (the black and the blue). I would recommend this to anyone, student or professional.

I absolutely love this pencil. The concept is brilliant and work as advertised. It's built well, the only drawback is the color on the tubing fades/slightly scratches if it's banged around. Apart from that, I don't think I can go back to using a regular mech. pencil due to having a consistent tip that doesn't "flatten" out. That I was my biggest issue with pencils, I hate when they lose their edge and you have to rotate it.

I ordered one of these pens and loved it so much, I had to have another! I am currently a full time student taking medical terminlogy and the class textbook has areas to write in as you learn the breakdown and origin of each term. The Kuru Toga Pencil writes effortlessly on the semi-glossy pages and the lead never leaves those little hash marks that are so common in other mechanical pencils. For me, the grip is comfortable and my hand never gets tired, even after 3-4 hours straight of writing and studying. The Kuru Togu Pencil is not only extremely functional, but great looking as well. I may just have to get all the colors..._smiles_

Just got my order. Very fast shipment! Keep up the good work! The Kuru Toga keeps a very fine line. It is fun to watch the mechanism move back and forth. TPS seems to be the only place on the web where I could buy it! The only drawback that I could find so far is the lack of a better grip. I prefer a gel grip, or something with some give to it. The Kuru Toga has a solid clear barrel to allow you watch the logo work its way around the mechanism. There is a small rubber grip below the view window to prevent slippage, but I think it is not enough.
