Is the Pentel multi 8 slightly light fast? I've used colored mechanical pencils before and they faded so much faster than even more economical traditional colored pencils. I really like the convenience and versatility of this product but if it's going to disappear with mild light exposure than I might have to pass.
The BIGGEST problem with ultra nice pencils/pens is eventually, you lose them. PERIOD. ESPECIALLY if you actually use/carry them. Speaking as someone who's owned a few of these super nice Japanese pen/pencils. So it's back to those cheap "good enough" one dozen for $2.99 pens/pencils. The truth is, I don't feel anything when I lose those cheap pens but it 'hurts' when I lose my nice Japanese pencils/pens.
I've never lost any of my expensive pen-/cils before. They usually have a dedicated pocket where I put them the moment I stop using them (tbf I only carry 2, 1 mechanical pencil and a pen). Every time I go through a door, leave public transport, change clothes etc. I pat myself down to check if everything's where it is supposed to be. A habit I got into after I got my phone stolen once.
I have had a Uni Kuru Toga for 2 years and used it every school day. Not once have I lost it, although it is a bit damaged (fixable with superglue and tape though)
Ah, the Multi 8! I bought one back in 2015 to use for color coding in my planner - it was so useful on thin Filofax paper that really didn't handle highlighters well (and it let me carry just one pencil instead of a ton of different colors). I now usually use a custom multi pen in my planner instead, but the Multi 8 also works great for a compact, on the go sketching kit! I do wish there was a nicer looking option though, ngl. Maybe something with a nice metal body...
That Multi 8 is amazing! Not just because it holds 8 refills, but because it's actually *tapered* ! I hate thick pen grips, so I always avoid multi pens with more than 3 colours, but that one tapers enough that I might actually be able to handle using it (no pun intended)
@@user-fg6ro I work in a classroom, draw diagrams, grade papers.... yes, I already knew I needed one. No, I don't get bored with writing tools. Never have.
That Dr. Grip model looks perfect for my husband. He has nerve damage in his hands and is increasingly having trouble with gripping pens and pencils. Having it be adjustable like that might be just the thing.
I JUST bought the Pentel Multi-8 and I love it! It takes some getting used to in terms of switching from one color to the next. I’ve always been a Pentel fan and a fan of well-built and sturdy writing instruments for a long time. So glad that I found this channel!
I’ll take one of each please. The pencil that impressed me most was tool one and how they managed to fit so much in one pencil. And while several look interesting I’m fond of Pilot’s shaker so that’s the one I’m most likely to buy.
I bought a few 4 and 1 uniball jetstream from jetpens. I use them all the time for my work (drafting/architecture). They work great. Now that I see that multi lead pencil...I want one!
The problem with the knurled grip on the Uni Shift drafting pencil is that your middle finger gets an imprint of a graph paper after you held the pencil for a while....😉
Craziest Pen/Pencil I've ever seen was Angle Sensitive: The way you held the pen determined what color ink or Pencil Lead it would dispense. Rotate the Pencil/Pen a little and click the back to get a different tip.
I am at the age where I had to learn how to write both cursive and block letters, and I did write quit much. I had a period of my life when I had lots of time but no money, so I decided to write a short story/novel. It turnes out having a really good pen increases your productivity a lot, I started with whatever I had at home, and then gradually worked my way trough a lot of pens until I found the one I loved
I am forever grateful that fancy mechanical pens are always stored behind the counter which prevent me to try them and tempted to buy it and became broke (or stole them and get arrested)
Hi there! We carry colored 2mm lead here: www.jetpens.com/2-mm-Lead/ct/530?&f=998b94b20715d63d Unfortunately we do not carry any compasses that fit 2 mm lead, so we cannot test if these leads will fit easily into your compass; you may have to manually shorten the lead before inserting.

Idk, Troika Construction pen is better in my opinion, it has a tone of colours and body materials, and also features a level, so it's real multi-tool out of all
Not to be pedantic, but what the MonteVerde has is a scale ruler. It is used to measure and draw scaled drafts. Plus , they don't mention how to advance the lead on this pencil, but it looks to be a twisting mechanism.
I have the Pro Use 171 and it's a great pencil. I actually think it is better than my Kuru Toga Dive which everyone craves. A bit of an apples to oranges comparison between the two.
Im sorry but the Multi 8 is just genius if youre using copy machines often. Its already cool have 6 colors that arnt ink-based pens, but 2 of them being able to write without showing up on copy machines sounds great. Seems like the first thing thatll get used-up by the multi 8
I am really into buying a Multi8 both pencil and ink versions but what bugs me is how much replacements to buy for a long haul as the brand usually abandon old projects...cannot find parts for my Shaker.
Hi I'm pretty old born in 1967 I have a German mechanical pencil that I have had since grade school it automatically advances its lead I am pretty sure it's in my old desk if I remember right it uses very skinny lead it is a very slim mechanical pencil too
I will be sold for the speciality pencil at 3:11 on the Pentel multi 8 if they make them with refillable quality pencil leads like prismacolor or Kalour (not leads terrible for colouring) with some way to keep the leads sharpened as needed. That would save so much trees in the process and more environmental friendly plus just grab only ‘1 pencil’ to put in the bag for quick travel colouring on the go. Make one and the colouring community will certainly buy them as long as the leads are really good and budget enough for colouring.
Love multi8 for sketching, you can use any 2mm leads with it. I like Koh-i-Noor colored 2mm leads and Staedtler graphite leads 🥰 It even fit tombow mono zero eraser! and also I use with it Prismacolor verythin (but with little help of knife and sand paper to get leads from wood and make them a little thinner)
@@Alina-kb1qf If only more colour pencils would sell 2mm leads with a multi 8…. I have the tombow mono, do you know if the eraser would work in the multi 8?

Finding this channel is the worst thing that's ever happened to me. I don't have the self control to resist buying things like this T-T
Hehe
I must say, you got me in the first half

Literally though - my wallet cries while my stationery addiction smiles 😅
Literally same
The overengineered mechanical pencils look sleek. They look like they've got an amazing feel to them as well.
They really do !
For that price point they can't give you cheap plastic, right?
This has to be one of my favorite series! I love tools woth multiple uses. It saves a lot of space when im packing light.

Multi 8 looks awesome.
As a long time user I can confirm, it is!
Okay so the Multi 8 is going on my wish list RIGHT AWAY.
Seeing "5 left" was the trigger that pushed my purchase!
Think again whether you really need 8 leads. It is going to be fun in the beginning, but you'll get bored of it soon!

all the pens you show are incredibly awesome i haven't seen this kind of fantastic pencils in my life
The multi tool one is crazy man!
Looks like a Therapy session ❤ from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
I always liked the old 4 color ball point pens, so I like Pentel Multi 8 Lead and its ball point variant.
The multi color one could be found in every single stationary and toy store in 1990s europe. About half the kids in my class had one.
The screwdriver pencil was really cool
I love the Multi Tool pencil, it's super convenient. 😯
im in love with this video....i just use mechanical pencils, it is so glorious to write with them and make details
I love this series!! thank you for showing us more! :D
Hee-Yes, more engineering and beautiful writing instruments.
God bless.
I LOVE THE MULTI TOOL
I bought a few 4 and 1 uniball jetstream from jetpens. I use them all the time for my work (drafting/architecture). They work great. Now that I see that multi lead pencil...I want one!
Really all very nice >>>>>>> Thank you .
I love Pentel!!
I want them ALL😂😂😂
The problem with the knurled grip on the Uni Shift drafting pencil is that your middle finger gets an imprint of a graph paper after you held the pencil for a while....😉
I mean, I already have a favourite mechanical pencil but watching these makes me wonder if I could improve on it!
Never seen such a video's in my entire life 😮
The 8 colour pencil that supports pens. With that can carry multiple colours of pens and pencils all in one❤
I don't need these but I need these
Yes Jetpens I love you so much stationery lover forever
Beautiful machines
Great! Mechanical pencil lovers' treasure.
The uni shift pipe lock was by fast the most incredible.

2:10 Mechanical Pencil with screw driver, to fix the screw on a sharpener for wooden pencils.
Its still useful if the user has wooden coloured pencils
Yes, to all!
The yellow one took my breath away
I would love the multi 8 in pencil and pen also the ruler pencil is amazing!
idk why I watch this channel, I hate writing, and prefer typing, yet I still watch this
Oh, NICE!
I love this so much 😳🥹😍✨
Multi 8 is my life❤
2:39 oh my heart 💚
I don’t see in ur shop ohto non-hoc, it’s very interesting pencil.
I recently had to buy some math instruments. Ever consider doing a video on math instruments like protractors?
Bloody awesome stuff 👏
Ooo it's ✏

Platinum pro use seems the most practical one
The Pentel multi 8 will be at my drafting/design desk soon!!!!
Very nice design s pencil 🎉🎉❤
Oh boy I love this
The second one is for me, i wanted a stylus + pencil.
How the hell does youtube know i like pens....😡
relax bro 😂😂😂
It's artificial intelligent of youtube took your interest as they forced show video to you
I like these features but I wish the pens were a lot thinner
JetPens, seeing the Multi 8 with 2mm leads has reminded me. I'm looking for 2mm colored lead for my mechanical compass. Does this exist?
Hi there! We carry colored 2mm lead here: www.jetpens.com/2-mm-Lead/ct/530?&f=998b94b20715d63d

I'm pretty sure those first two pencils have my name on them.

Please make a pen, pencil and permanent mark 3-in-1.
oh man time to put in a order
#1 best Bible highlighter ever.
Pentel multi 8 looks really nice.
Maybe I'm out of touch but what kind of ruler is that at 05:56?
It's a Midori Multi Ruler! www.jetpens.com/Midori-Multi-Rulers-Standard/ct/1911
Multi Tool is the best!
Here I am using a 925 Staedtler pencil. As basic as you can get.
The Pentel 8 is more like a crayon than a pencil
Awesome ❤
The 8 colored pencil is a great idea for people like me do a lot of coloring in coloring books!
Todos são incríveis! 🤩
I have the Pro Use 171 and it's a great pencil. I actually think it is better than my Kuru Toga Dive which everyone craves. A bit of an apples to oranges comparison between the two.

can somebody explain what is "UNI" ? branding
in my country there are Pen which have UNI label and its more premium than other brand
Uni Mitsubishi (yes, the car people) they're a great brand for stationary (I don't know enough about cars to comment on their automotive brand)
The cheaper version of specialty nib pencil is made in India where the cost of it is rs 10
Do you offer any less "overengineered" international shipping?
NATARAJ pancil is the best one WHICH
WE USE IN INDIA 😄😄😄😄🌟🌟🌟
Pentel multi.
