Faber-Castell brand introduction

Among the many German pencil brands, Faber-Cascade's attitude is the most perfunctory, and it has always regarded Shi Delou as a competitor, but the update of pencil products is not as good as that of Shi Delou. Since shifting its business focus to the production of high-end lines, Faber-Castell has shifted to the production of fountain pen products in the field of pencil models, but it has only stayed in the product design, and the technology is not comparable to the old fountain pen brands such as Pelikan.

In addition to the two popular series of TK and Grip, Faber-Cascade also learned from Lingmei's development ideas, and invested its development strategy in high-end lines such as GRAF, Apollo and Ambition, and invested a lot of energy in product design.

Unlike Red Ring and Schederlou, Faber-Castell is still made in Germany, after all, there is not a wide range of products, and the quality and technology are all in the same tradition, not good but not bad. The TK series is a drawing mechanical pencil, while the Grip series is a writing mechanical pencil that is an extension of the graphite pencil. The TK series pays more attention to the stability of lead transmission, but the pen grip made of plastic is not suitable for long-term pen use, and the price is about 100 yuan, and the cost performance is very low. The additional technology is also played by Japanese brands, and there is no technological innovation.

Relatively speaking, the Grip series mechanical pencil is more user-friendly, ergonomic design, the grip is better than the drawing series, the buffer device is added, the anti-lead performance is also the winner, and the price is more affordable than the drawing series, as a writing is still worth starting, the brand does not sell this series in official channels in China.
