Why would I need a Swiss Army Pencil if I’ve purchased a Swiss Army Pen?

Needing a Swiss Army Pencil

The Swiss Army Mechanical Pencil features the same lacquer as the Swiss pens. The Swiss Army Pencil offers the same Swiss Army tools and the same stainless steel clip with lasting spring power. Why do you need a Swiss pencil when you have a Swiss pen and possibly a mechanical pencil from, say, Faber Castell? Some jobs require more precise tools. The Swiss mechanical pencils have an aluminum top and brass bottom for proper writing balance, a design unique among mechanical pencils. Swiss Army Pencils feature .7 mm leads with HB hardness that allow soft freehand drawing.
