Paper Mate Handwriting Triangular Mechanical Pencil Set with Lead & Eraser Refills, 1.3mm, School Supplies, Office Supplies, Sketching Pencils, Drafting Pencil, Fun Barrel Colors, 8 Count (Pack of 2)

These are hands-down the best mechanical pencils I’ve ever used. The triangular grip is a total game changer — super comfortable, easy to hold, and perfect for longer writing sessions without hand fatigue. The thicker 1.3mm lead writes smoothly, doesn’t snap constantly, and is ideal for both kids and adults. I especially love how forgiving they are for handwriting. They’re great for anyone who struggles with fine motor control, grip strength, or just prefers a sturdier pencil (hello dyslexia/ADHD-friendly design 🙌). The erasers actually work well, and the refills are a nice bonus. Durable, comfortable, smooth-writing, and affordable — there’s a reason I’ve purchased these multiple times. If you’re on the fence, just get them. You won’t go back to regular mechanical pencils after this.

My favorite pencil. Quality, design and grin of the pencil makes it great for children and adults to write with, and great value for the money.

I am 67 years old and buy these for myself. The lead is thick so it doesn't break easily and is nice and dark. The pencil diameter is easy to hold. The eraser works well. These pencils are perfect for puzzle books, grocery lists, or anytime you want dark, legible writing.

These are by far my favorite pencils! They write so smooth and the lead does not break easily like other mechanical pencils. The shape of the pencil itself is comfortable especially when taking notes or writing for a long time!

I absolutely HATE mechanical pencils due to the fact you barely press down and they break. My kids are homeschooled and it's a task just to keep a sharpened pencil in the house. These I must say I absolutely LOVE. The lead is way thicker and super strong the erasers actually do erase and they are the perfect size for both adults and kids. We are almost through the 1st semester of homeschool and have not had to refill these pencils yet. I have bought 3 parks so far and only have opened 1. They last forever even I love to write with them. Variety of colors for both girls and boys so a win win.

They’re very light weight which makes it easy to use for gripping and writing clearly. My 3 year old is learning to write and they are easy for him to grip which is a plus. Definitely worth it for what you pay. They come with a good amount of replacement led. The only downside I’ve noticed is the erasers do not erase 100% (see photo)The quality is great other than that. They serve their purpose and work well for what I need.

I didn’t expect to fall in love with a mechanical pencil, but here we are! The Paper Mate Handwriting Triangular Mechanical Pencil Set has become my go-to for everything from note-taking to sketching. The 1.3mm lead is thicker than standard, which means it rarely breaks—perfect for fast writers like me. The triangular grip is super comfortable and ideal for both kids learning to write and adults who write all day. I love the fun barrel colors, and the included lead and eraser refills are a great bonus. A must-have for back to school, teacher supplies, or just keeping your home office stocked!

Amazing pencils! Really help tidy up handwriting skills. The thicker pencil with thicker leads is great for smaller kids learning to write. As an adult I prefer these over most other mechanical pencils. Highly recommend.

Son maravillosos, excelentes desde primaria porque la punta es gruesa: 1.3mm, esto lo hace super práctico, no se rompe la pinta con la presión que le ponen los niños, los compré y además en otra página compré un blister de 30 cajitas de puntillas y le duraron desde 3er grado hasta la secundaria a mi hijo

So smooth and easy to hold for long writing/drawing sessions. Really nice quality. The lead is very durable.

Love them! They are fat.

Writes smoothly, erases easily, comfortable to hold and write. Love the colors of the pen casings. Also comes with refill leads and erasers. I got it for a fabulous price and totally happy with my purchase!!

These pencils are great for carpenters
