The top of the pen is wrapped with a crocodile stamped black leather.

Sep 9, 2015 Written by Felix Jen Pentel Graph Gear 600 Review Pentel Co. is a Japanese writing instrument manufacturer with a wide range of products. The name was an amalgamation of the words pen” and tell,” as to mean telling a story.” An interesting tidbit is that Pentel was the inventor of the non-permanent marker as well as the felt/fibre tipped pen. Their most ubiquitous product is definitely their Hi-Polymer erasers found almost everywhere. Another Pentel product that is quite popular is their range of Graph Gear mechanical pencils, their line of drafting pencils.
