There are a few issues I have with shaker pencils, one of which is that they aren't faster at all. Every time someone makes a video on a shaker pencil they exaggerate on how long it takes to click the top of the pencil when, in reality, it takes the same or less time than the shaker pencil. Another issue is that you can't really control how much lead comes out because of how forceful you must shake the pencil. Not only is this an issue, but I don't want to be seen furiously shaking my pencil when in class or writing something down in public. I suppose it really is preference but it I'd rather have something like a DelGuard that gives me a little more utility.
Ebrithil1 the Zebra Delgaurd is literally a beast of a pencil. Not only can you draw with very light lines but you can press down harder for a more darker tone :D
I have both and I actually prefer the mono. First, it looks and feels luxurious (it’s heavier because of the weight thing and I prefer pens/pencils that is the same width throughout the body, I also would’ve prefer the black model, I ordered it but they sent me the original mono design instead, oh well) and second, you don’t really need to furiously shake it, just a firm jerk and you’re good to go, looks exactly like if you’re trying to unclog ink with a pen, very normal. Trust me, I had this exact same fear that someone would think I’m weird but honestly, it only bugs me when I’m doing exams or in a particularly quiet classroom since it is a little loud. I find that I shake twice for more lead and once for less, I prefer shaking twice. That way I can sort of control it. Another reason is the needle tip, I don’t really like the conical tip on the Delguard, that way I can graph or sketch with ease, also useful in geometry. But since I’ve only used normal pencils before, with the clicker on the top, I’m used to pressing it on my face/shoulder (sounds weird but hey, works for me) so sometimes I press it to find the clicker is in a different position haha.
Also Idk if something is wrong with my Delguard or it’s just faulty design or I just write weirdly (I wasn’t taught how to write properly as a child so I write with my ring finger rather than my middle) but I find that the guard thing doesn’t extend quickly enough when I put vertical pressure on it.
Actually shaker pencils can also be used as a regular mech pencils cause it can be clicked to advance the lead, but for a too lazy like me i think shaker pencils are convenient, if you don't want the show yourself shaking the pencil in public u can just simply click it, but this thing is just so cool i am just using the tombow one and trust me its sooo satisfying 😂😂
Hi! I got the Tombrow Mono Graph Pencil, and it has a lock feature so that lead does not come when it shakes in a backpack, car, etc. The problem I have however, is that when I do shake the pencil to get more lead out of it, it just got in to the lock and doesn’t allow lead. Do you know why this is happening ?
@@NoName-je1qh Hello! I believe we have the same pencil as mine also has that lock feature you're talking about. There's a label there that says "on off" right beside the clip. I think you just need to slide down the clip to disable the lock then shake the pencil and check if lead is coming out, just as how you'd slide up to lock it, hence the label. That's what I always do with mine. If you have tried it and it doesn't work then there might be something wrong with your pencil. Sometimes it would also take a while before lead comes out when you shake the pencil, from experience.
You realise there are mechanical pencils that have the clicker right where you rest your index finger when writing? Quicker than shaking and the traditional method
Jazz A Not if you are used to either the push top (traditional) or shaker. Plus, the side click is not available in more obscure tip sizes like 0.3 mm. The shaker and push top are the only two available in 0.3 mm.
I found there to be no adjustment period (considering I've used push clickers for over 10 years throughout school~uni) because the clicker is right on the pen pad and your finger naturally rests just next to it. As for the tip sizes, I've never looked into that but I can confirm mine is 0.5mm, I would agree it would be nice to have a smaller tip size!
@@bballwatcher2224 well... I have a really cheap paper:mate which has the three things, shaker, button on the top and button on the index finger... All for under 3$
These are actually amazing, but for some reason, I always loose my best pencils. Either someone steals them, or they fall out. My most famous is the, Graphgrear 1000 mechanical pencil, which was always stolen. And the Tombow was lost, but it was pretty cool.
It actually takes more effort to shake it than just press it 😅... If conventional pencils were shake types and someone invented a press type... Now that would be worth it lol Edit... I had a pretty cheap mechanical pencil when I was a kid... It had the press button right behind or in front of the finger when you hold it .. the concept was good but the pencil was cheap... I don't find such mechanisms anymore...
I like shaker pencil cuz I don't like changing my grip while writing, and especially drawing. Otherwise, some of my friends with smaller hands also prefer them as reaching the top for lead advancement is usually a bit more troublesome for them =]
Another alternative to the clcicky-top pencils is the ones that have a bend in the middle and can be extended by squeezing against the middle part of the pencil. A good example is the Tombow Olno, but there are others, even classy ones in a metal finish. I'd recommend them as they are quick so use and you don't have to adjust your grip to extend the lead and you also don't need to pick your hand up off the page like you would with a shaker. Also a bit more discrete for use at work or in class.
Personally I prefer the uni, because of the grip, and because I’m a student that prefers using pencil (in math it really helps), and prolonged use of that tombow one without a decent grip gives me callouses on my index finger.
You can actually open the uni alpha gel by holding the silver part in one hand and the body section in the other and twisting it open and there is a vey dense spring inside (I know this from playing with my pencil for years during class and I had the uni for over five years and it’s still good as new)
i love shaker mechanical pencil since 1995 i stared with Pilot the shaker H1010 it's a beauty design and really usefull thenks for this video i enjoy!!!!
Definitely my top pick for mechanical pencils. The new Uni Kuru Toga Advance that just came out too so I know what I'll be buying in the near future. lol
I never used it before..it's nice to try something new. i hope you get to visit Hawaii and go barefoot too when I get to show you around the places where I go in Hawaii
this is really common in my country, in fact i even have one rn, problem is that shakers pencils tend to always give me more lead than i need when i shake it.
I've got a question, I see the Kuru Toga Roulette in this video. In your old video on the pencil, how did you take it apart? I got one and tried to disassemble it and only put scratches on the pencil because of the glue. I'm asking because I've heard you can put .3 parts into the pencil but I couldn't get it apart.
let me know how this sounds in class while taking an exam. it might also help to ask a nearby friend how you look when the old lead piece runs out and you have to "shake" 30 times for another piece of lead to feed.

There are actually two more relatively new mechanisms: bend knock and automatic. The automatic one does not require any push of a button, since pressure from writing will cause the clutch to open up, allowing more lead to come out of the lead sleeve. The bend knock is literally described as bending a certain part of the pencil which activates the clutch. Notes: the clutch is what holds the lead in place. Also, when I refer to lead, I do not mean Pb. Finally, I am only 17. Have a good day.

I saw a shaker pencil from Zebra at a store today. I almost bought it, but then I noticed the tip had a little give (wobble). That was a deal braker for me.
Personally I own a Pilot Dr. Grip CL and a Uni Alpha Gel, and I really don't like the Uni's build quality. After some use the metallic paint on the tip, center, and cap of the Uni can scratch off to reveal the plastic underneath. Also, although the gel grip does feel nice, it attracts a lot of dust and debris, just like in the closeup of the pencil. Both the Uni and the Pilot have plastic bodies, but the Pilot Dr. Grip mas a much more solid feel. If you like to spin your pencils, the Dr. Grip is definitely more balanced and satisfying to spin or twirl. The Pilot Dr. Grip CL also comes in a variety of colors and designs. Still, the Uni Alpha Gel definitely deserves an honorable mention for its locking mechanism.
blauen also, the Dr. grip could be assumed to be more for ergonomics (it's the recommended pencil by the Arthritis Foundation) while the Alpha Gel is for comfort (correct me if I'm wrong).
amazon, ebay, jetpens, etc. I recommend amazon, or ebay if you have a paypal. Jetpens is more expensive, but has a lot more variety, lead, and eraser refills.
The Uni is pretty light and pretty evenly balanced since it uses a long spring for a weight. While the Tombow is a little heavier overall and slightly heavier in balance towards the writing side.

I wouldn't use one to actually write with, but I think every collection needs at least one shaker pencil in it. I used mechanical pencils from five to twelve hours per day for more than thirty-five years, and the ONLY pencil I found that could stand up to the work load is the Pentel P 200 series. I broke four rOtring pencils, and just about every Japanese drafting pencil made, including a coulple that were hideously expensive. Fortunately, the company paid for those. I put more tha half a million words on each of my three Pentel 200 series pencils, and drew lines that had to total in the hundreds of miles. Maybe in the thousands. Not one of them ever broke, and I still have them today. Worrying too much about the grip on a pencil doesn't make much sense. They make grips from every material you could want, in every texture you could want, and in every thickness you could want. I knew many, many, many pros who used these slip on grips as a matter of routine. There's simply no reason not to do so. When my hand started getting tired, I canged the grip I was using, and went on writing or drawing lines. Simplicity is at the heart of perfection, and a encil loaded with gimmicks is often a pain in the rear. You don't actually need any "dfeature" at all, except the two features that really matter. 1. It's reliable. 2. It stays reliable for year after year, decade after decade. Though at roughly three dollars and fifty cents each, if they broke after five or ten years, or even after one year, it would be difficuklt to complain because of how well they work day after day. I know more pros who used this pencil than any other, even though the company would continually order new pencils by the case, so we all had our choice.

I enjoy flipping the pencil to press the button. It makes me feel like some sort of writing ninja
I absolutely love shaker pencils and here in Michigan no one uses them. They are always fascinated when I use one during a quite test setting.
this pencil is mostly for people with arthritis and other ailments, it really help and it makes school a lot easier ! i love my shaker pencils
This is a great way to annoy my classmates!
That why i bought the zebra z grip one
Right when I just received my Kuru Toga Roulette, just yesterday. David, why you do this to meee?? Now I need to buy more pencils just to have them..
lol. enjoy the kuru toga
Lol you're well off with the Kuru Toga
I bought the delguard the other day anh he released this vid
Damn same, im just odered a uni kuru toga on last wed,then i saw this guy,ur not alone bud😂😂😂
Im lucky lmao £3 for a rotring with 4 leads on ebay.

Jazz A For me, I use 0.3 mm regularly because I write too small for 0.5 mm to handle. This also means I have a higher prerequisite for quality.
what mechanical pensil is like this? hehe need
@@bballwatcher2224 well... I have a really cheap paper:mate which has the three things, shaker, button on the top and button on the index finger... All for under 3$
I have the tombow.. once you get used to shaking, it’s very useful although when I switch back to my kuru toga I found myself shaking it as well lol..
Imagine you're out of lead and you flip your Tombow Mono Graph twice in the air and keep going. That's so slick
These are actually amazing, but for some reason, I always loose my best pencils. Either someone steals them, or they fall out. My most famous is the, Graphgrear 1000 mechanical pencil, which was always stolen. And the Tombow was lost, but it was pretty cool.
i don't think a couple of seconds is worth getting these over the other pencils you have shown.
I agree. The Uni Kuru is still my favourite pencil. But I just thought these were kind of cool.
y can't u just use a pencil with a button on the side? It's even faster than this.
Dominic Hidayat I used to have one, but my classmate lost it- I flipped because it was my.teachers gift to me.

yea but when ur in the zone when ur drawing, a simple hand shift can just disturb everything and ur hold is like diff
Do a review on the Platinum Zeroshin. It has a double clutch mechanism so it uses up the lead entirely.
It's $8.25 USD on JetPens.
I like shaker pencil cuz I don't like changing my grip while writing, and especially drawing. Otherwise, some of my friends with smaller hands also prefer them as reaching the top for lead advancement is usually a bit more troublesome for them =]

would you happen to know the type of lead it comes with? seems smoother than the lead i normally use
Hey David, can you help me decide which one
Do you know Dr.grip?
Can you review something like the Pentel Orenz Nero, or the Pilot Automac next?
Thanks for the suggestions. I'll look into them.
Thank you David. My uni alpha gel shaker was driving me crazy
Great video David! Although I think you actually can see the shaker of the Alpha Gel if you unscrew the bottom casing, the part with the clip on it.
Thanks! I feel like an idiot. hahah I thought I tried that but it does open up some more. Interesting that they use a spring as a weight. Pretty cool.
Haha np, it really is pretty neat.
You can actually open the uni alpha gel by holding the silver part in one hand and the body section in the other and twisting it open and there is a vey dense spring inside (I know this from playing with my pencil for years during class and I had the uni for over five years and it’s still good as new)
The Dave Lee of pencils.
This is fucking insane! I remember you having 22 subs haha! Just shows how easy it is to achieve something if you really want to! Cheers
Hey Man! Thanks. Yeah it feels like just yesterday I had less than 100 subs. Luck helps too I guess, but appreciate all the support from everyone.
I just checked and it was 12 subs not 22 haha insane! 100k is right around the corner
i love shaker mechanical pencil since 1995 i stared with Pilot the shaker H1010 it's a beauty design and really usefull thenks for this video i enjoy!!!!
Big fan of the Uni Kuru Togas !
Definitely my top pick for mechanical pencils. The new Uni Kuru Toga Advance that just came out too so I know what I'll be buying in the near future. lol
Oxygel is a reslly good pencil. Used to have like 3. The gel part is super soft
To get the monograph you could find them at Tokyo lifestyle thats where i got mine :)
I never used it before..it's nice to try something new. i hope you get to visit Hawaii and go barefoot too when I get to show you around the places where I go in Hawaii
pilot had this shaker feature at least 11 years ago and side click button solves this problem, as long as you don't grip on the button while writing
I'm not going to get a pencil that saves me "seconds" of time when there's more advanced mechanical pencils out there
What pencil is that at 0:31?
Hey David , can you record the video about your pc setup ?
Will be great if you will :D
I have one shaker pencil from Pilot called "The Shaker" and i really love it but i don´t know if it´s still available.
this is really common in my country, in fact i even have one rn, problem is that shakers pencils tend to always give me more lead than i need when i shake it.

hi - good the grip mechanism I understand, but how does it only have 1mm from it, so what does it have and I do not understand
ok wow i have the monograph and i didnt know it did that, i thought it was broken. thats sooo cool
You need to review *Pilot Mogulair* too. It's amazing.
I had tons if these , never knew what they did.
rip in peace tons of shaker pencils that were never used to their full extent
let me know how this sounds in class while taking an exam. it might also help to ask a nearby friend how you look when the old lead piece runs out and you have to "shake" 30 times for another piece of lead to feed.
Markism07 you can get the lead out normally..
Great review! Are Titus shakers available in your area? Hope you can review if available. I have Uni but just the regular mechanical pencils.

glad to see im not the only friggin lead pencil addict here
i had a shaker pencil when i was at 4th grade
also it had a shaft that can be filled with multiple leades
it was like 2.5$
I'm sorry but how could you not know these exist?!
lol. I'm just a noob in the pencil industry.

I saw a shaker pencil from Zebra at a store today. I almost bought it, but then I noticed the tip had a little give (wobble). That was a deal braker for me.
I'm just a little worried if you accidentally hit the paper while shaking it then it has the little dot that's impossible to erase
And also you would break the lead
Personally I own a Pilot Dr. Grip CL and a Uni Alpha Gel, and I really don't like the Uni's build quality. After some use the metallic paint on the tip, center, and cap of the Uni can scratch off to reveal the plastic underneath. Also, although the gel grip does feel nice, it attracts a lot of dust and debris, just like in the closeup of the pencil.

Thanks for your thoughts! And that's true about it picking up dust which is a little annoying.
blauen also, the Dr. grip could be assumed to be more for ergonomics (it's the recommended pencil by the Arthritis Foundation) while the Alpha Gel is for comfort (correct me if I'm wrong).
You should try the Rotring 800
where do you buy the uni a gel?
It'ssupar.byjapanese
Goode John you could go to amazon
amazon, ebay, jetpens, etc.
I recommend amazon, or ebay if you have a paypal. Jetpens is more expensive, but has a lot more variety, lead, and eraser refills.
sometime when i am in rush, i will just click it with my forehead! LOL
I click mine with my chin
I look at the action required to advance the lead and think RSI. I'll stick to the less jolting motion of clicking the button.
hows the balance and weight on the pencils?
The Uni is pretty light and pretty evenly balanced since it uses a long spring for a weight. While the Tombow is a little heavier overall and slightly heavier in balance towards the writing side.
I wish there was a combination between this, the UNI kuru toga and the zebra pencil that doesn't break the lead
I see that pilot better retractable, a good and classic pen!

I got both and finally knew what shakers are meant to do, thanks😊😊
just got a kurutoga and coleto cries i can't resist
The shaking seems like a good idea, until the graphite sticks to the plastic tube (due to static electricity) and renders the pen unusable.
I have one if the Uni pencils with the cool grip but I left it in a classroom and the next day the grip was gone
When u shake it is it loud
if your lead breaks just quickly press the back of the mechanical pencil into your chest, literally solves the problem of not being fast
what editing program do you use?
I use premiere pro with after effects for the animations.
Theses could probably help with sketching and pencil drawings
Mechanical pencils with a clicker on the side like BIC Side Clic and Pentel Side FX are much faster than this.
And they also look terrible. Idk more of a preference but I do like classy looking pens
I love these fricken pencils they're the best and no one has them 😏
Please do more!!! ^.^
BTW, next pencil should be the Orenz!!!!!
"just a flick of the wrist" lol
When I shake the pencil my neighbors in school thinks I'm crazy 😂
the tombow graph shaker pencil is cheap and cool!. with the app honey, it is only $3.89
My pencil is a shaker, didn't realize the shaking had a purpose lmao
That moment when you realize that you are looking up pencils in the middle of the summer 😐
I really loved my Bic ai
Which is the cheapest
is anyone gonna tell him that there is an eraser in the uni alpha gel??
I lose my pens ALL the time.
I have a shaker pen and i didnt know so i was like y is it making that sound
Do more mechanical pencil vids plz thyre sooooo 👍
Quality content.
tbh just use ur other hand to push the lead down idk
Make More of these vids.
I have one of them
Make more pencil videos
funny thing is that I own one of these and never know this

"start shaking it but nothing will come out"
blowing on it will make stuff come out 😏
What if you flicked your wrist too hard and lose your grip on the Mech pen? XD
damn! shaker pencil still exist?
