Steef&Co. PG5 Custom Stabilized Wood Mechanical Pencil

Order via Japan Rabbit

Discover a beautifully crafted mechanical pencil from Steef&Co., a name well known among custom stationery makers in Japan. This PG5 custom edition features a barrel made from stabilized maple burl wood, prized for its rich, swirling grain that makes every piece one of a kind.

The barrel weighs a comfortable 20 grams, giving it a solid, grounded feel in hand. As the 0.5mm lead moves across the page, you'll notice a satisfying resistance, sometimes called "kotsu-kotsu" feedback, that many drafting pencil enthusiasts seek out.

Custom wood barrels for Japanese drafting pencils have built a loyal following among collectors, and it's easy to see why: combining precise mechanical internals with natural materials results in a tool that feels as luxurious as it is functional. This piece captures that balance beautifully, pairing drafting-grade precision with the warmth of handcrafted wood.

This secondhand pencil is in near-unused condition, with its wood grain and tactile finish still looking and feeling essentially new. A striking addition to any collection or everyday desk.
