Pencil kit identification

[SteveJ]

My grand daughter has a pencil I made for her years ago which no longer extends the lead. I have no idea what the kit is. I want to replace the mechanism but none of the pencil mechanisms I have on hand are long enough. I'm looking for help identifying the kit and a supplier so I can replace the innards.

Thanks in advance!

Might be a fancy slimline

I agree with @Darios - it looks like a Fancy Slimline Click Pencil. There are several variants though.

I can't tell for certain, but it looks like it might be a Berea kit.

If it is a Berea Kit, they are a quick drive on the near west side of Cleveland.

The TN on the clip should hep identify it, but I don't see that on the Fancy or any from Berea

Turns out it is a slimline pencil. The picture doesn't show it, but the product description says this "Our most popular Slimline pen kit in Titanium Nitride (TN) plating. The TN plating looks just like gold and is absolutely permanent. It will even outlast our guaranteed standard gold finishes. All TN kits are stamped with a "TN" indicia on the pen clip to authenticate it's Titanium status."

Yeah I saw that - was thinking it could be a custom clip, but then ran a second go through of the google-fu and it might be this one -

Awful picture but that /could/ be a TN on the clip.

edit - beat me to the post by about 30 seconds there James.

I found 2 Gold Slimline pencils in a drawer of stuff I made when I was just learning to turn back in 2016 (they are not-so-slim Slimlines and generally have poor fits - far far from my best work). I will gladly send them to you if you to take them apart and salvage what you need. Just send me a PM with your address and I will get them stuck in an envelope. - Dave
