description OHTO Horizon (MS01) Overview
The OHTO Horizon (also known as the MS01) is a distinctive mechanical pencil that features a slender wooden barrel that exposes the lead mechanism through a window, creating a sleek, modern look. The wood (often walnut or beech) provides a warm, comfortable grip. It uses a push-click mechanism and comes in 0.5mm lead. The pencil is lightweight (about 10g) and well-balanced.
The Horizon stands out for its minimalist design and is a joy for those who appreciate aesthetics. However, the wood is unprotected and can be damaged by water, and the clip is removable rather than fixed.
