One thing I will say is that you should really only use the eraser in emergencies. I know some people buy huge packs of them but honestly having a discrete eraser and eraser guide is more cost efficient and ultimately a better solution if you do any amount of writing/drawing with these things.
Back in 197x, my Jr. College calculus instructor ORDERED us to get a Pentel if we wanted to be serious about engineering. I got a black P205 (I think the model was P205, the labeling has long since worn) During my first programming job a few years later, I discovered the floating sleeve. I retrofit a retractable sleeve from another Pentel onto my "Magic Coding Pencil" and have been using the same pencil since. This one pencil has served me all through University (3 times), and my entire work career.
I love my pencil and have even given it a name. OOPS, did I admit that out loud????
