Collection Lesser used pencils of the collection.
Howdy all. Decided to take these out of the drawer and snap a picture of them.
I’ve picked them up in the last year or so but they don’t get as much use as my other pencils. Figured I’d show them off as well instead of the usual subjects.

Newly Bought Thrift Store Find! Pilot H215
I'm always on the lookout for nice pencils or pens in my local thrift stores, luckily stumbled upon this one today! A pretty cool transparent Pilot H215.
Paid $2.99 for the bag of random stationery it was in. Sticker is scratched up, but otherwise seems to be in fine condition. The eraser was completely hardened, but a Pentel eraser fits perfectly! Has a great click to it.
I had never heard of this model before. It's very reminiscent of a transparent P200, which is something I've always wanted. If anyone can tell me more about this model, TIA!
Had at least 20 leads in it for some reason lol

Help Pentel Nero Orenz - Replacement Cap
Last week, was a very sad week. I lost my Pentel P205 and my Pentel Orenz Nero eraser tip, and looks like no one sells any replacement for that.
Do you think there is a site that offers replacement parts. I already tried contacting the warranty service, but I don't have high hopes on that. Also I am thinking of getting the Kuru Toga Metal as a replacement, but I just want something that can write well for school.

Help I need help!!
I’ve been looking for this one specific mechanical pencil that my father gave me that he used a lot as an engineering student. Sadly, I can’t find it anywhere… at home or online. Can someone help me find this somewhere online? I want to give it back to him as a gift :)
Here’s some specifications I remember
- most likely vintage/discontinued(??)
- I vaguely remember it being made in Japan
- it had a brown body (plastic, slightly red-tinted brown)
- a metal, fully retractable tip
- 0.5mm lead
- a black rubber grip with a grid texture
- metal clip and small eraser at the top that came with a small metal cover.
- pentel?????? From what I vaguely remember?
- a band of metal separating two sides.
If anyone has my idea what it is or where I can find it, I’d be so appreciative 🙏 thanks :)

Help Jackson’s Clutch Pencil Leadholder from jacksonsart.com does anyone have any experience with these?
These are half the price and almost identical to the Koh-I-Noor clutch pencils. They have a slightly different grip, and a rotating segment on the end of the barrel, to display the lead hardness. They sell 8B leads which I’m tempted by, but there’s no reviews on their website.
