Buying questions

How is Orenz AT different from Kuru Toga Metal?

Orenz AT combines automatic lead advancement with a sliding sleeve that supports the lead. Kuru Toga Metal focuses on rotating the lead to maintain its point. Choose between fewer lead-advance clicks and rotating-lead behavior.

What kind of grip does the Orenz AT have?

Its Dual Grip combines a 12-sided metal section with rubber components and a low center of gravity. It is a different design from the soft, cushioned grips on Pilot THE Dr. GRIP and Uni Alpha Gel Switch.
