Mechanical Pencils

On the hunt for a gift for my agents BrumlConlon  

I found this great blog  Dave's Mechanical Pencils

Written by a Kiwi aka New Zealand local,
he (de)scribes himself as-

Once upon a time there was an innocent young fellow who got a dose of graphite, was lead astray and became a lead junkie, with way too many mechanical pencils.

Good reviews, great search ability, Dave's Top listings, lead reviews and so much more.

From the musings on the site and recommended links I secured said gifts... oh, and picked up another for myself.
