    Where did you pick those up? Straight from the Japanese Uni site?

    Ah, I just found what looks like an American redistributer of the Hi-Uni. Uni-ball rebrands them as “Uni-ball Hi-Uni”, but the pencil says “Mitsu-Bishi” right on it!

    Sign me up as a devoted pencil geek. Would you recommend the 5B over a harder or softer grade?
