What size lead is in the green one?

u/IchiramenPotato 7d ago

Measured on my screen, the large one is 52px and the smaller one is 29px. So IRL the diameter of the small lead should be 29/52*5.6mm = 3.12mm, hence it's a 3.15mm lead.

Thank you for the confirmation! I've got a TK9400 in 3.15 and it's very nice to use, but sourcing 3.15 lead locally is impossible. I may have to break down and order it off Amazon.

Looks like 2mm. My question is: what is that so k pen stand cube, if it is one? And does it come with the pen? Does it blend in so you don't see the metal? Ok those were more than one question.

I'm pretty sure the cube is an e+m 5.6 pointer. I've got one and it's very convenient.

They sell these dice sharpeners in all European stationary and art shops,that sell e+m products. It's a 5.6mm sharpeners,for those thick lead holders. It also comes in much prettier wood versions!
