I’m referring to the Mitsubishi 9850 with the white eraser. Like the Blackwing 601, dark led with only light pressure needed.
Amazon has them for $9 per dozen. I’ve given most of them to the grandchildren, but keep two or three on tap most of the time.
Sorry lead…lol!
Lately I've been carrying a box of Crayola colored pencils along with my Hobonichi Techo Cousin A5 in my Banana Republic Paratrooper's satchel.
The pencils fill in colors more delicately than ink on the Tomoe River paper in the notebook. I've torn the thin TR paper a couple of times while filling in sketches with ink.

I have to say that pencils are right up there with fountain pens in my book.

I'll take a different stance.
I love to sketch, but most instructions and instructors use pencils.
I don't love the experience of using pencils to sketch, as well as the result.
So much that I stopped sketching.
Fountain pens and inks, surprisingly, made me love sketching again.
That is but one reason why I love fountain pens.
No pencils for me.
** Having said that, I do use pencils in my sketches only when I am faced with a challenging subject. But when I erase those pencil marks, I am happy.

your fp sketches bring joy to so many! I love drawring with pencils and I need to do it more.
today my youngest (home sick from school) suggested we draw so we did! a few eyes closed things, then eyes open surfboard, dude and pizza.
looks like my dude severely injured his ankle.

Both pencils and fountain pens are excellent drawing instruments. I like them both equally.
...would be a difficult decision if I could only have one.

Pens or pencils.?? I thinks both at the same time. I have a great stop of pencils and recently I have ordered some more mechanical pencil leds which included some colour lens . it is a great fun!!
.9s have become my favorite. There is is variation in the writing and I don't break them.
