6 every time.

Also fuck 7, those butcher broke so easily.

I had one similar to (not literally exactly) 6 back in high school, and some really dumb jock took it from me and I've wanted it back ever since.

The Bic one is okay, but pushing directly on the eraser to push the lead out isn't ideal. I always thought that was a design flaw. Having the button on the side of the pencil but away from the index finger is ideal honestly.

And even though we're not deciding based on lead size for this, I prefer the finer.5 to the more common .7.

Plus the top has a pretty large eraser that you can twist to expose more, so it had a mechanical refillable eraser too, which was pretty cool.

And I got mine in my favorite color, and that fucked just took it.

I was a super sheltered kid, coming fresh off being completely homeschooled (except for a Christian kindergarten), and that year of school was my first social contact with other people outside grocery stores and church. So I didn't do much about it, as I didn't have a clue about how anything in real life worked. I wouldn't figure a lot of it out for still another 16 years, but that's a different story.

Also at this point I haven't actually written anything at all with a pencil, pen, or marker for.... 15ish years now? Outside of signing my name anyway.

Ticonderoga. Hey if the lead still breaks at all from any of the others, it's not worth it. Least with 2, you lose the point.

6 is where the fuck it's at, shit looks comfy as fuck and I will fight everyone else here I don't even care if you agree with me

Hope I don't have much left to write if choosing #2(pun is a package deal). But it would be my pick.

#7

6, which I guess is pretty similar to my pick for number 5 on the pen post. Looks like the weight and style would feel best in my hand. Sadly none of them have my favorite feature of having fairly long and good quality erasers on it like my current favorite (non imported) mechanical pencil. Can't remember the name off the top of my head

Kuru Toga Advance please.

I mean most of these look pretty uncomfortable, 8 looks the most comfortable.

Despite not having tried any of them I guess I'll pick #1 since it's the most robust looking one.

Currently I use one from Bic which works well enough.

Mirado Black Warrior all day.

Pencils are terrible, pens are the superior writing implement.

6, cause it’s a gel pen. For a pencil, not really bothered by these options…probably 2.

2 although 6 is also pretty good from my experience.

Number 3. I already did two degrees with it.
