Alvin Drafting
Draft/Matic Mechanical Pencils

I have a Draftmatic thats over 10 years old and it still works great, it has been my go to mechanical pencil for years. I bought the set to diversify the lead sizing for various applications and so far so good. I hope the newer ones are built just as good as the older models as I have noticed some design changes.

Great mechanical pencil set. Alvin has always had great products. Happy to see them come back. I have the old-style Draft/Matic and wanted to get the new style. DEW was fast and easy to order. Fast shipping. Better price than Amazon. The only small issue was you don't get the box that is shown. Wanted it for display on my desk.

This pencil is one of the best mechanical pencils. It is in the league of more expensive pencils like rOtring, but in terms of writing or drawing, it will not disappoint you.

I regrettably buy them because I need the knurled grip on these, because I have very sweaty hands AND fingers as an artist, and other mechanical pencils just slide out of my grip eventually, which is frustrating.
Of course, the standard to which they were engineered is also nice.

Excellent quality! Exactly what I wanted.
