Mitsubishi's patented graphite production process is the heart and soul of every Hi-Uni. The carbon particle size is incredibly small and evenly distributed through the lead, creating Hi-Uni's signature smooth feel and generous laydown. No other graphite manufacturer comes close to Hi-Uni's combination of creamy texture, strength, and point retention. Even the harder grades are smooth, and the softer grades are unbelievably dark and rich.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHi-Uni's core is encased in beautiful California incense cedar. The reddish color stands out immediately when you sharpen Hi-Uni. Then you'll notice the distinctive cedar fragrance, which, due to the high grade of wood used, is much more intense than other cedar pencils. Finally, if you're using a good sharpener, you'll see that the wood of a Hi-Uni neatly curls off the pencil in a long, continuous spiral. The lead is precisely centered in the wood case, so long-point sharpeners work perfectly with Hi-Uni and don't break the lead.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough the unfinished wood is gorgeous in its own right, Mitsubishi doesn't stop there. Hi-Uni is dipped in an extra-thick layer of glossy, deep burgundy lacquer, which makes the pencil both attractive and super smooth to the touch. The company name and logo are stamped in gold on one side, and the pencil's grade is stamped on all six sides so you can always grab the right one at a glance.

The special curved nib (Midori poetically mentions that it has a \"shape like a bird's beak\") allows writing from any angle, unlike fancier, more finicky fountain pens that require a specific grip style. The nib shape also reduces smudging by allowing your fingers a little more distance from your notebook's surface.

In a market that was dominated by oil-based, viscous ballpoints with metal ball tips, the B100 had few precedents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe B100 design is defined by two features that were groundbreaking at the time of its release: its free-flowing, saturated ink and its resin ball tip.

This makes the B100 an unusually responsive writer, even in today's pen market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the resin tip depends on softness in the writing surface to work smoothly, we recommend using the B100 in a notebook or on a stack of paper, not with a single document on a hard surface.

But if you simply put some extra sheets behind your writing surface, you'll really see this pen shine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnchanged since its release 50 years ago and still popular today, the B100 is a great, inexpensive pen for any desk.

Mitsubishi's patented graphite production process is the heart and soul of every Hi-Uni. The carbon particle size is incredibly small and evenly distributed through the lead, creating Hi-Uni's signature smooth feel and generous laydown. No other graphite manufacturer comes close to Hi-Uni's combination of creamy texture, strength, and point retention. Even the harder grades are smooth, and the softer grades are unbelievably dark and rich.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHi-Uni's core is encased in beautiful California incense cedar. The reddish color stands out immediately when you sharpen Hi-Uni. Then you'll notice the distinctive cedar fragrance, which, due to the high grade of wood used, is much more intense than other cedar pencils. Finally, if you're using a good sharpener, you'll see that the wood of a Hi-Uni neatly curls off the pencil in a long, continuous spiral. The lead is precisely centered in the wood case, so long-point sharpeners work perfectly with Hi-Uni and don't break the lead.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough the unfinished wood is gorgeous in its own right, Mitsubishi doesn't stop there.
