      made them plastic

      #1 is all metal. Retractable tip. Bought one after Adam Savage reviewed them.

      #2 is definitely the best long-term option, but it’s really nice not to have to constantly sharpen while you’re doing some intricate work.

      Yeah but with mechanical pencils you can buy one and have it for years, only just buying the occasional pack of leads… Saves the trees ¯_(ツ)_/¯
