I believe that the use of the instructions shown in this blog post falls under “fair dealing” as described by the UK Copyright service.įor an even closer look click on any of the photos (as usual). The instructions are from the packaging of Muji’s aluminium hexagonal flat clip mechanical pencil (0.5 mm).
Overall value for money is excellent, especially when paying the Japanese price or the Western discount price. One push will advance the lead about 0.75 mm, which is good for my style of writing Some mechanical pencils advance too much lead per push which can easily result in lead breakage if you write using an acute angle. Mine came with five very smooth leads, but I think according to the Japanese on the packaging there should be six, I’m not sure though. The pen also comes with an “emergency eraser” under the top button / cap. The sleeve/mechanism of my pen is also slightly loose, but this doesn’t cause any issues when writing. When you shake the pen you can hear it move, especially when it is in its retracted state. This is more common with metal body mechanical pencils, but is not really a problem. The inner mechanism of the pen is a bit loose. Because of the similar shape and weight handling is similar to the Caran d’Ache 844, which features an aluminium body, too. and this mechanical pencils has a slightly bigger hexagonal barrel (8 mm) than the average wood-cased pencil (7 mm). The weight is under 15 g My scales are very old, so this might be inaccurate. I obviously realised that it has a metal body, but I didn’t realise that the body is made from aluminium until I saw “Alumi” written in Katakana on the packaging. The pen itself is nice and well made, especially when considering its price. Be careful though, I have seen a few damaged pens among the black hexagonal pens on sale.
It will not be stocked any more from Spring/Summer 2014, which means that you can get this and other black aluminium hexagonal pens for a very good price (I paid £3 in Manchester’s Trafford Centre) in shops where they are still available. The official price in the UK is £9.95 (~$16.20 €11.95), at the current exchange rate this is more than 60% above the price charged in Japan …but Muji has recently removed this pen from their catalogue.
This pencil and other pens from the black hexagonal aluminium range were first launched in August 2010.
