The world’s first knock-type mechanical pencil was released by PENTEL CO., LTD. in the 1960s, and in 1971 they developed a capped pencil with the concept of “a mechanical pencil used in the same way as a fountain pen”. Ever since its release this mechanical pencil has been referred to as the “KERRY” or “Sharp KERRY”, and now Craft Design Technology has worked with Pentel on a special version that inherits the original design. The cap section comes in matte-silver and the body is given a glossy white shade. A delicately designed “Sanada-Himo” pattern is applied on the central brass section, which gives a sense of firmness when held in the hand. It has an elegantly modern presence that becomes part of the user’s everyday life.

The metal components used for the KERRY pencil create a comfortable balance. The longer tip is similar to that of a drafting mechanical pencil, in that it provides high visibility. The unique cap protects the tip, and the overall size has been reduced to make it the pencil easier to carry around. The cap can be posted to the back when writing.

Accepts any .5mm mechanical pencil lead. Made in Japan.
