Mitsubishi Pencil Co. is the parent company of Uni (or Uni*Ball) and they've made some pretty remarkable writing instruments over the years. While Pilot took the spotlight for a time with their black striped steel mechanical pencils, ballpoints, fountain pens, etc., Mitsubishi was making their own as well with a number of different patterns. You can see an earlier version of this mechanical pencil (HERE (https://www.reddit.com/r/mechanicalpencils/comments/85262b/before_the_uni_brand_was_making_pencils_there_was/)). This is higher mid-tier, as the original price was 2,000 JPY. It's no wonder why the internals are all metal.

This is an all steel 0.5mm mechanical pencil with a matte black coated body featuring gold tone plated accents. It also has a matching ballpoint pen (the old Jumbo 8 refill had dried out, but luckily the Pilot BRFN-30 refill fits). Here are some additional photos:

This set is in gently used condition with minor signs of use and works great in all respects. I've never seen it available in this color combination before. If you're interested, I am willing to part with this rare pencil/ballpoint set for $89 shipped in the USA (additional shipping costs for outside US). Let me know by PM. Thanks!
