If you want to up your Kuru Toga game, get one of the metal ones on Amazon. They perform the same as the plastic ones, but look and feel much better. I've had the gunmetal grey Kuru Toga for years now, but it's fallen aside to Pigma Micron pens (mmmm felt tip).
I've had my metal-body Kuru Toga for very nearly three years now, and I love it. This Amazon link comes with some eraser refills and a pack of leads made just for the pencil.
There's a review compilation on the front page that gives it awful scores because the lead rotation mechanism "doesn't work", but I think it should've been obvious to the reviewer that he got a bad apple or something. You can easily verify it by holding the pencil in your hand and looking into the little window on the grip while rapidly pressing the tip a dozen times. I can definitely say the lead rotation works, and is useful. I'll definitely miss it when I move to an rOtring 800.

Check out the Uni Kuru Toga Roulette. Amazon has them on sale for like $10 with replacement lead and erasers (usually the pencil is like $15, lead+ erasers maybe $7).
I bought one a few weeks ago and I will never go back to cheap pencils. In fact, I never used cheap pencils because I hated them. I love this pencil.
