Looking for HQ Mechanicalpencil

Hey, I'm looking for super highquality Mechanical Pencils similar to Caran D'Ache ones but a little more extravagant, anyone know of a site that sells something like that?

preferably ø 2 mm

thats an example



Willing to spend up to 500$

Examples for exquisite designs like Mont Blanc too!

But if they're not starving and doing hard labor for a dime, who's going to make the $500 pencils?

Looks like you don't know anything...

I had a pencil in my hands years before I even knew what a pixel is, and I'm hundred times better at pencil-drawings than at pixelwork

Same here, I sucked at pixeling and I still am. I work much faster and better with a paper and a pencil.

actually very difficult to find "expensive" 2mm, or any 2mm mechanical pencils on the net. and due to my being very bored at work, ive actually looked quite a bit for you...

i found some resources that may help you like the above link i posted:

http://www.cultpens.com/acatalog/Mec...l_Pencils.html
a pretty cool resource - it even has a "pencil finder" where you put in the specs u want and it searchs for a match... everything i find is >75$

(link to my search: http://www.cultpens.com/acatalog/Pen...hp#ls=2,pencil )

http://www.leadholder.com/forum/
a forum with people much like yourself (ask there u might get further)

hope you find one, let me know when you do

P.S. seems to me that the smaller the lead size, the more expensive they become. found a few .3mm lead mech pencils upwards of 250$
