Bic Velocity and Velocity Max: Artist Reviews Pencils

Hey Artnerds! Last week, we talked about the Papermate Clearpoint mechanical pencil. This week, we're checkin' out the Bic Velocity AND the Bic Velocity Max- two other common US mechanical pencils. The Velocity Max has a super cushy grip, which can be great for kids with grip issues and adults with arthritis!

Bic Velocity Blue Lead Test

Very prone to snapping
Fairly comfortable to hold
Comparable in handling to a Pilot Color Eno or a Pilot G2

Bic Velocity HB #2 lead

Pencil feels a little loose- I can hear parts rattling as I pencil
A little less sturdily built than the G2 and the Color Eno
Grip isn't quite as grippy either

Bic Velocity Max

Blue Lead

Less prone to breakage
feels more sturdily build
Grip is very comfortable
grip leads very slight light residue in my hand- it sorta bugs me

HB #2 lead

Basically same statements as before, but when I noticed the plastic collar on the front slipping (it happens), it was a bit more difficult to quickly tighten it (this is not an issue most users are going to notice)
