I think the P20x series has different numbers depending on lead diameter, e.g. 5 for 0.5, 7 for 0.7.. Is there an official name for the P20x series? If so that might be a better name for this article. --[[User:Memm|Memm]] ([[User talk:Memm|talk]]) 22:48, 8 July 2018 (CEST) | I think the P20x series has different numbers depending on lead diameter, e.g. 5 for 0.5, 7 for 0.7..

#1 claim
I think the #1 claim needs some qualification and clarification. I note the Pentel UK and USA websites state something about it being #1, but Pentel Japan discontinued it many years ago presumably due to poor sales. KDMP (talk) 08:27, 8 July 2018 (CEST)
- I agree. This sounds like a typical marketing claim to me. I am sure it is #1 when measured in one or more ways, but it would be good to know based on what it is #1 and to have a reference. --Memm (talk) 22:48, 8 July 2018 (CEST)
