Leuchtturm1917 Twist Grip No. 2 Mechanical Pencil White
Leuchtturm1917 Drehgriffel Nr. 2 Mechanical Pencil – White
Elevate your writing or sketching experience with this refined mechanical pencil from Leuchtturm1917. Crafted to combine German-engineering precision with timeless design, the Drehgriffel Nr. 2 is a premium instrument that delights both in form and function.
Design & Materials
Encased in a lightweight yet robust anodised aluminium barrel, the pencil features a finely-milled steel front tip that transitions seamlessly into the 0.7 mm graphite lead for a clean, balanced stroke.
Its hexagonal cross-section pays subtle homage to early-20th-century drafting tools, offering a stable grip and elegant aesthetic.
The White variant is accented with a clean lacquered finish, branding in a matching tone, and polished details that reflect its premium status.
Mechanics & Writing Performance
Unlike typical click-mechanisms, this pencil uses a patented “twist to advance” clutch system: twist the top head to lengthen the lead; when released, the gripper inside closes and holds the lead firmly in place.
Inside the barrel lies a reservoir capable of holding multiple spare leads, so you won’t run out mid-session.
The 0.7 mm HB lead offers smooth and consistent mark-making—ideal for note taking, diagramming, sketching, or bullet-style journaling.
Dimensions & Practical Use
With a length of approximately 130 mm (≈5.1″) it’s compact but substantial in feel.
Without a clip, it presents a clean silhouette which slips into a pocket, pen-case or travel pouch elegantly. Note: the absence of a clip means it behaves more like a precision tool than a casual carry-pencil.
The subtle weight and balanced design provide an enhanced feel and comfort during longer writing or drawing sessions. (One user on Reddit wrote:
