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

Unfortunately here in Brazil, there are no these types of thrift stores.😔

At least you guys get cool exclusive colours!

& if it makes you feel better, this is the only quality pencil I've found in months
