The Pentel Graphgear is a really nice heavy metal automatic pencil with a comfortable grip that's a mixture of knurled metal and translucent rubber. The metal lead sleeve retracts completely when you press down on the clip, to protect both the lead and sleeve. There's a lead hardness indicator and an integral refillable eraser under the chromed cap.
