Continuous Pencil Means No More Stubs

Like the solid feel of a hardwood pencil but hate writing with a tiny stub? This modular continuous pencil is for you!
At first glance, I thought that the Continuous Pencil was just a stubby with a wooden holder. But no ? each pencil can hold the stub of the previous pencil. You just Lego the new one right in, work the old stub to the end, then shave it down to start over again.
For some folks, it might be cumbersome to break out a penknife to start up a new pencil, but once you?ve hand-sharpened your lead, it?s the only way to fly. Designers, architects and illustrators who either don?t like or can?t use mechanical pencils will love this.
The photo slideshow above actually features two different pencil designs that solve the stub problem: the Continuous Pencil and the 1+1 Pencil, both via Gadget Lab favorites Yanko Design.
