P200 Sharp

The P200 Sharp is a mechanical pencil line built by Pentel. It has a .3, .4, .5, .7, or .9mm bore for lead, and is used primarily as a draft pencil.
Construction
The barrel is constructed out of black, burgundy, blue, brown or yellow plastic. The Length is approximately 11 cm. At the tip of the barrel is a 1.7 cm cap tipped with a 4mm tube; constituting a 2.1 cm head. 1.5 cm from the end of the pencil, a silver clasp is attached, but it can be modified. The pencil is capped with a 2 cm silver cap. The internal mechanism is 12.5 cm long and is constructed out of brass and black plastic. The internal mechanism is held inside the barrel by screwing in the top to the tip. Thus, most of the pencil can be broken down for cleaning.
Variations
The P207 is part of the P20 family. Other variations include the P205 and the P209; equipped with .5 and .9mm mechanisms. However, since the mechanisms are interchangeable, the owner may equip a P205 barrel to use .7 or .9mm lead. Other rare variations are the P203 (0.3mm) and P204 (0.4mm). The P204 (0.4mm) is not sold by Pentel of America and is only available from Japan. The P203 was discontinued in the early 2000s because of the decreasing number of people who use 0.3mm lead.
