Platinum Hayakawa Limited Edition Pencil M-10000B
The Platinum Hayakawa M-10000B Pencil commemorates an interesting slice of mechanical pencil history.
In 1915 Tokuji Hayakawa began manufacturing mechanical pencils. His classic design was the EVER READY SHARP PENCIL. Mr Hayakawa later named his company after the pencil - the Sharp Corporation. Sharp is now one of the world's largest consumer electronics companies. The Ever Ready Sharp was very popular in Japan and is the reason why mechanical pencils are popularly known as 'sharp pencils' in Japan.
