I tested the Mirado Black Warrior 372 USA HB #2 against the Paper:Mate American HB #2. I appearance the Mirado had a sleek stealthy look to it where as the Paper mate had a more traditional yellow/orange color. So this is how they held up in the tests.
Appearance:
Mirado:

Paper:Mate:


Sharpening Test:
They both did well in this test. The Paper:Mate's time was 5.5Sec. Where as the Mirado was quicker with a time of %Sec. flat.



The writing test:
The Mirado did wonderful in this test with almost no slippage. The Paper:Mate had a little trouble with the start and blew its lead using all of its power. The Paper:Mate just has too much power. The Mirado was quick and finished as fast as it started.





The Braking Test:
The Mirado had overall weak brakes that resulted in a blown eraser. The Paper:Mater did extremely well.

 

hahaha u crazy *****a hahah good stuff, must see!!
hahaha best dman scientific experiment!!

 

hmmm i believe people here must be getting more weirder than ever or just bored, or maybe the combination of the two...

 

Just bored.

 

Yeah but thats not the usual standard of daily writing. I say the Papermate American sucks *** cause of the eraser and lead. The warrior is the top of the line Papermate. It's like comparing the Honda civic to the S2000.

 

Yeah, true. But the Papermates eraser was way better than the Warrior. I took both pencils to the limit.

 

i think CHINA pencil r the bets, they're the strongest in pencil fight, i always own everyone with them during those fights, go CHINA MAN!!

 

I like the really fat ones.
