Penco Passers Mate Pencil

This is a slim 0.5 mm mechanical pencil by Penco, shaped like a traditional hex wood pencil and tipped with a small red eraser, fine enough to slide inside a geometry compass.

The Passer's Mate is recommended for geometry work, quick notebook sketching, and precise line-work on a drawing board. It measures long, with an 8 mm (0.31") barrel diameter, and weighs 4 g (0.14 oz). Pre-loaded with HB 0.5 mm lead and compatible with standard 0.5 mm refills.

Founded by two surfer friends in Fukuoka, Japan in 1994, Penco is a stationery line of the Hightide company. This brand was born from a love of vintage American office supplies, and pairs nostalgic analog shapes and bold colors with Japanese precision, from a single ballpoint pen at its start to a full range of desk tools today.

Made in Taiwan.
