Camel has been making pencils in Japan since 1948. This half-size mechanical pencil is the one worth carrying.

It fits the margin of a book, the spine of a notebook, a shirt pocket. Small enough to forget about until you need it; well-made enough to notice when you do. Among Japanese mechanical pencils, it occupies a category of its own: genuinely pocketable, genuinely precise, built by a maker who has spent over seventy years doing one thing well.

Three colors: yellow, natural wood, green. Pink eraser, metal ferrule.

4.5" L · Wood barrel · 0.5mm graphite · Made in Japan

Emma ★★★★★

Slips right into the spine of my notebook and stays put, which is exactly what I wanted for margin notes. The click mechanism is smooth and precise — no jamming even after a week of daily use.

Emma ★★★★★

The pocket clip is perfectly positioned—this thing lives in my shirt collar and I forget it's there until I need it. Writes cleanly along a notebook spine without the bulk of a full-size pencil, which is exactly what I wanted.

Carter I. ★★★★★

Slips into the margin of my book without sticking out, and that’s exactly what I needed for jotting notes while reading. The half-size build feels surprisingly solid, not flimsy like other pocket pencils I’ve tried. It’s become my go-to for marking up pages on the train.
