Drehgriffel Nr. 2 – the Pencil

An ideal companion to your notebook, this mechanical pencil, from a design dating back to the 1920s, will keep your writing crisp. It comes in colors that match the notebooks and is a design object to behold, with a geometric hexagonal barrel and a pleasing weightiness that lends to its retro quality.

The mechanism of the writing and drawing instrument is made in Germany: When the twistable head is turned, the chuck opens at the tip and the graphite lead is pushed forward at the same time. When the twist mechanism is released, the chuck closes and holds the graphite lead in place.

Inside the Drehgriffel Nr. 2 there is also a chamber that holds several refills at once and immediately pushes the next one forward when the other has been used up.
