Pens and Pencils on my desk

That sun-star is amazing.

Talk about a brand that is seemingly NEVER mentioned. This is the 2nd drafting pencil of their’s that I now want and realize I need to look for.

Thank you for posting.

Yes, we need more photos of this sun-star. I am a sun-star fan and bought quite many in recent months.

From where? 0.5 or 0.3mm?

One 0.5mm went for $21 on yaj a week or so ago, I low balled it hoping no one was after it haha. Didn’t work.

Was just thinking that!

I recently picked up 2 of the Topull models; unusual but not unpleasant to knock.

If any Kanji aficionados are lurking around, I’d love to know what the best search terms for sun star might be.

‘ サンスター シャープペンシル’ gives me somewhat disappointing results.


All my pen and pencils finally arrive UK. Will keep posting here…

What is the 5th from the right? I can only read “PLUM” at the sticker?

Not to steal thunder from @Raybonche responding but that’s a metal Pilot 2020.

It’s brass with lacquer paint called urushi.

It’s weird how the replies work here. I actually asked about the photo above the one you responded too, though I’m grateful.

Care to risk his toes again answering this one?

Edit: it’s the picture with the platinum/saturn pencil in the third space from left. The pencils with the black ring grips

Ahh yes. There’s two ways to reply to specific comments here. The way you did, which requires an extra click to view the comment you’re responding to, or the quote feature like I’ve done here.

Beautiful! I like the subtle colour differences.
