I received my set yesterday. I am completely impressed with the way these pencils write. Their line is fairly dark and they write quite well. They are also the best-looking pencils that I have seen–they overtake the Grip 2001 and even the Blackwing! Thanks again for introducing me to these pencils–they are a winner.

Wow! What a great idea for recycling newspapers.

Thanks for the excellent review. Of course, I had to order a dozen to try them out….

My mistake, sorry! I don’t know enough about *either* Japanese or Chinese languages to distinguish; I was just going on the info that SeeJaneWork gave me. I’ve sent them an email to let them know about the mistake in their product description. Thanks for pointing that out!

Interesting review about these unique pencils!

As a reader from Japan, however, I feel obliged to point out that at least the pencils in the photos (including those on SeeJaneWork.com) are not made from Japanese newspapers – the language printed on them is actually Chinese.

On the other hand, the wastebaskets on the SeeJaneWork.com site are indeed in Japanese, presumably from magazines or advertisements.
