Now it’s official: The STAEDTLER 925 85 is back.
Announcement:
Product page:
It will be availabe in 0.3 (end of July) and 0.5 mm (end of June). – It would be interesting to know whether (and if so, how) it differs from the original.
No mention of a black version, though.
Hope they solve the rattle, the 95 and 85 rattle like a rattlesnake.
Lets see the black edition soon now.
Where will it be able to be purchased at those times?
Oh, how great that they’re going to reissue the rattle.
Two full sets!! orz
Old logo and new, very nice!
My 95 has never made a sound outside of its sexy knocking. Is this a common problem?? I know my 85 could be used as an instrument…
My 95 doesn’t make as much noise as the 85, but it still rattles depending on how hard I write. If you also shake it between your fingers, you can hear it. Maybe it has to do with the generation, mine seems to be the latest. Another point I saw, the 85 rattles differently between its models, I have a 0.7 that rattles more than the 0.3.
Unfortunately, I recently lost a REG trying to remove the rattle by putting a piece of paper inside the tube, this messed up the click, and when I tried to adjust the clip to remove the paper, I scratched the entire pencil, I was so mad that I threw it away lol.
I really felt that! It’s funny but not at the same time.
I think the most I would try is to apply some tape to the knock… reduce the the metal-on-metal clanging.
By the way, the logo was changed in 2001.
