It was at the 1878 Paris World Fair that Niroku Masaki encountered a pencil for the first time — an object so unremarkable to Western eyes that it likely went unnoticed by most visitors, but one that stopped Masaki completely. He returned to Japan determined to make one himself. After years of setbacks and repeated experimental mistakes, he established the Masaki Pencil Manufacturing Company in the Naito Shinjuku area of Tokyo in 1887, eventually producing what is recognized as Japan's first domestically manufactured pencil. By 1901, his pencils were officially adopted by Japan's Ministry of Communications — a breakthrough that solidified the brand's reputation for quality and reliability. To mark the occasion, Masaki registered the three-diamond Mitsubishi trademark in 1903, derived from his own family crest — and notably, a full decade before the industrial conglomerate that shares the name registered theirs. The company took its current name, Mitsubishi Pencil Co., Ltd., in 1952, and the uni brand followed in 1958 — a high-grade pencil that met with overwhelming public approval, far exceeding anticipated sales due to its superior quality, and laying the foundation for what would become one of the most recognized names in Japanese stationery.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"hi-uni-graphite-pencil-art-set","title":"Mitsubishi Hi-Uni Graphite Pencil Art-Set","description":"\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe Mitsubishi Hi-Uni Graphite Pencil Art-Set is a premium collection of professional-grade graphite pencils designed for artists, illustrators, designers, and anyone serious about drawing.

Attracting particles in the formula draw the ink together as it lands on the page, keeping lines crisp and minimising feathering and bleed-through even on thinner papers.

The Kuru Toga solves this with a spring-loaded rotation mechanism that incrementally twists the lead every time you lift the pencil from the page, wearing it down evenly into a consistent conical tip. The Advance Upgrade is the most refined expression of this system, fitted with the W Speed Engine that rotates the lead twice as fast as the standard Kuru Toga — once every 20 strokes rather than 40.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eNavy is the most classic and considered colour in the Advance Upgrade range — a deep, rich blue that sits naturally alongside notebooks, fountain pens, and other well-chosen desk objects without competing with them. The precision-punched metal grip provides a stable, non-slip hold without rubber padding, and the sliding lead sleeve advances automatically as the lead shortens before retracting fully for safe carry. A colour that works as well in a meeting room as it does at a writing desk. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eW Speed Engine — rotates lead every 20 strokes for twice the rotation speed of standard Kuru Toga\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eLead rotation keeps tip consistently conical for even, uniform line width\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003ePrecision-punched metal grip section with integrated finger placement guide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSliding lead sleeve advances automatically and retracts fully for carry safety\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBreak-resistant lead feeding mechanism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eNavy body with metallic-look rear barrel and metal clip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eTop-button click advance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003ePre-loaded with one HB 0.5 mm lead\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e0.5 mm lead diameter | Length: 155 mm | Weight: 16 g\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMade in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca title=\"Mitsubishi Uni items\" href=\"https:\/\/shopnoteworthy.ca\/collections\/mitsubishi\"\u003eSee all Mitsubishi - uni items\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SD-BUNGU","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43276001280067,"sku":"MI-KUROADU-NV","price":18.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/4338\/files\/Uni_Kurutoga_AdvanceUp_Navy_1.jpg?v=1778910813"},{"product_id":"mitsubishi-uni-hi-uni-graphite-pencil-2b-1-dozen","title":"Mitsubishi uni Hi-Uni Graphite Pencil – 2B, Set of 12","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Hi-Uni is Mitsubishi's finest pencil — the one at the top of a range that already sets the standard for Japanese graphite, and widely regarded as one of the best wooden pencils made anywhere in the world.

One end is Vermilion red, the other Prussian Blue, split evenly 5:5 down the hexagonal shaft. The ability to flip between two high-pigment colours in a single pencil is as practical now as it ever was — proofreading, editing, annotation, document marking, colour-coded note-taking, and sketching all benefit from having both colours immediately at hand without reaching for a second tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe leads are highly pigmented and soft enough to lay down rich, vivid colour with light pressure, without the waxiness that makes some coloured pencils hard to erase or layer over.
