Pentel Pencil Lead Holder and Lead Set, Multi 8 Set (PH802ST)

Amazing and very handy pencil. I have been using it to highlight sections in a book I was reading. The colors are bright and its very easy to use and swap out the colors. Will start sketching with it now.

TLDR: Great multi lead holder, very compact, excellent for travel, lead is great quality, mechanism to switch colors is smooth but a little unintuitiveIf you need a lead holder that holds more than one lead, this is the holder for you. The switching mechanism **can and will** break your lead if you don't use it right, so read the manual or look at a YouTube video first. The mechanism is a little non-intuitive at first, and mine seemed "stiff" but it has loosened up with (proper) usage.The Pentel lead this comes with are very high quality and have a nice, waxy feel. Most colors blend well, with the exception of the non-copy colors (which is understandable), and of course you can replace the lead with lead colors of your choice. The color names are printed on the side of the pencil, so if you want to replace with completely different colors you might want to try to remove that printing - or at least be aware of it!The price on Amazon was less than my favorite stationery site of all time, whose name is similar to "Airplane Writing Utensils", and this was the same quality and came packaged the same way. If it's cheaper on Amazon than on "Aeroplane Ink Holders", buy it here.

I think Pentel makes the best writing instruments, & this is no exception. The pencil is easy to use, easy to refill & saves space by having all those colors in one place. It can be used for taking notes, coloring pictures, marking items on a calendar or keeping track of appointments by color. This pencil comes with refill leads & will last. Excellent value!

I like this pencil, you have all the colors in one, you don't have keep switching to a different pencil for a different color. It has never jammed; the lead is smooth. It works like it is supposed to.The price is a bit high considering you do not get a lot of lead with it. I buy the bigger packs of lead, with the longer sticks, make sure you buy the 2.0mm and break them in half and use them. Lasts forever. Works great! So, the price isn't so bad that way. The dark colors of lead are a bit too dark to highlight with, it a checking pencil, not really a highlighter, so you can use those colors to underline or replace them with a lighter color of the same shade, the color chambers are labeled so you will want them in the same color tint.I have used it for almost a year not with no problems and I am a full-time college student. I bought a yellow pack of the sticks and none of the others and I am a full-time college student who highlights everything, and I probably have enough to get me through to graduation summer.It doesn't bleed through or rub off on the opposite page either. It is a really nice multicolor pencil.

I really like the ease of use for marking my scriptures and the cost of this product with the refills. It marks smoothly and it doesn't get caught on the pages which is nice. The only issue I would have is when changing colors it often gets stuck and won't let you cycle through to the next, so what you need to do is make sure the color you're using is placed clearly to the top and the pointers are pointing at each other. When turning, turn by the clip and watch the pointers to make sure they turn simultaneously. It's a pain, but compared to the other prices and when those break a little inconvenience is better than spending more money in my opinion.

What I like about the Pentel Lead Holder is it's convenient to carry in my EDC sketch kit: ballpoint pen, 4x6 sketchpad and the Pentel Lead Holder for adding color to the finished sketch. The limited colors is also an advantage, as one doesn't get too caught up with overdoing the colors. Another advantage is that any 2mm lead cut to fit will work in the Pentel Lead Holder. Highly recommend.

I used my last wax highlighter, and was having a difficult time with a replacement. The liquid highlighters are horrible for Bible pages. This pen is remarkable. You have all colors in one convenient pen with a generous amount of refills. Highly recommended for Bible study!

It's a great product. I really like it. I’ll have to repurchase it later.
