Product Description

The squishy soft grip of the Alpha gels are so addictive that Uniball has been multiplying its line like bunnies. All other comfy grips seem like hard rubber compared to an Alpha gel. It is the same gel that is famous for keeping an egg from breaking even when dropped from a 5 ft. height. This pencil has a SHAKER option. You can either click or shake the pencil to extend the lead. Just change the setting by pushing the top cap all the way down to transform it into a shaker pencil. So now you can squish, shake and click your way through class and/or work.

    Great  pencil
    5 Stars
    Great pencil
    Love this product. Super great to hold. Am a college student so I usually have to write a lot on a regular basis. Which cause my fingers to hurt, but with the gel grips,it makes it really comfortable with out the pain. Some of my friends tried to write with it and couldn't believe how comfortable it really is...
