I have the bottom four pieces, and each one is remarkable:

  • I love the tip design on the Sakura Slide Sharp and also the spiral-grooved grip
  • The Tombow W-knock has a cool stripe motif that is bigger/smaller depending on lead size
  • The Tombow SH-700LP is a killer drafting piece in a classical style
  • The Tombow Monotech 1000 is one of the most comfortable pencils ever with its trademark bulge where the knurled grip meets the barrel

Do we have any catalogs with this in it?
Anyone know when they were sold?

feels weird replying to my own post but they were sold as early as 1980 per Tombow: Tombow 1980 Catalog (partial)
