Looking for a name of the pencil I just bought. Internals are P200-style with metal reservoir tube.
Bonus points for suggestions on what could fit inside the Staedtler 477 25 to make an awesome pencil.

Pilot H1505?

Maybe, I thought the H-1505 had some feature of some kind?
This is ”just” an awesome looking plain 0.5 mechanical pencil.
Got the two in the middle for about 30usd, so happy whatever this is.
I second the H-1505 proposal, but the internal code number might be different. I think I spotted the model on some catalogues on this board, but I cannot recall on the tip of my tongue where i saw that particular pencil.
I agree it is a very nice piece, especially if you like a form of slightly deeper etching, and more “raw” edges. The very tip reminds me of the Pilot Cavalier MP series.

Gave it a DSM 2007 and a tiny plastic spacer for my standard double-double-knock solution. Works like a charm.
And the H1505 is even better. That one goes with me to work tomorrow.
Thanks for the quick and insightful replies!

‘H-1505’ is seen on some examples with a sticker. The catalog code has switched a couple of times.
In this older(?) one-sheet leaflet from 77, it is called the ‘HMF-250SK’ and ‘Black Stripe Knock Type’:
In this 77 catalog, it is ‘HMF-150MK’ for the blue/red/brown stripe version, and is also called the ‘ヤング タテジマ / Young Tatejima’. ‘Tatejima’ means ‘vertical stripes’:
I wonder if the price went down from 2500 yen to 1500 yen as production ramped up? Coz by 1980 or so this European catalog calls it the H-1505:
