	Mechanical Pencil Sharpeners ~ 1884-1899

	What is a Mechanical Pencil?
		The first mechanical pencil was invented in Britain in the early 1820s, and patented by John Hawkins and Sampson Mordon in 1822.
		Once the mechanical pencil is closed, lead can be pushed through the barrel in small increments -- as it is used -- by clicking the tip of the pen, depressing a ratchet button, or twisting the cone of the barrel, depending on the model.
		The advantage of a mechanical pencil is that the lead is so thin that it's always sharp, allowing precise and uniform strokes without the hassle of constant sharpening.

		The problem with the usual wooden pencil, though, is twofold: (1) You have to have access to a sharpener at all times; and (2) it doesn’t stay in a typical planner pen loop, because it is a cylinder of uniform diameter.
		I found the pencil to be of standard office-supply quality (bleh), but the built in sharpener was very sharp and brought pencils to a long point.
		The reason the pencils come short (like a cosmetic pencil length) is that they don’t fit in your shirt pocket as a long pencil.

		Some more expensive mechanical pencils have a detachable end where the eraser and the clip (used to hold the pencil in a pocket) can both be removed and you have direct access to the storage for lead.
		You could buy a new pencil, because they're pretty cheap now-a-days, (and a pencil without lead or an eraser is just a cheap piece of plastic) or you could try replacing the eraser.
