Caran d'Ache Fixpencil

The history of the Caran d’Ache Fixpencil begins in 1929, when an engineer in Geneva invented this unique clutch pencil as a hedge against potential wartime disruption of the woodcase pencil supply. After launching a year later, the Fixpencil became a global success. The Caran d’Ache Fixpencil was the world’s first modern mechanical pencil.

Available in 2mm diameter lead size, with a clutch mechanism, a sharpener included inside the button, and the same comfortable hexagonal body as the Caran d’Ache 849 Ballpoint Pen.

Made in Switzerland

The Caran d’Ache Fixpencil comes with one full-length 2mm lead included. Refills are sold separately in packs of three and 12, and can be ordered here.
