I wrote about my red example a couple years ago (http://leadheadpencils.blogspot.com/2012/05/will-gentleman-from-bulgaria-please.html); here it was compared to a normal Automatic . . .
To learn more, this full article is included in The Leadhead's Pencil Blog Volume 3, available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble and everywhere else you buy books, or you can order a copy signed by yours truly through the Legendary Lead Company HERE.

The Eagle Wizard features a unique gravity mechanism to extend and retract the nozzle holding the lead. I'll call the mechanism an automatic dropper. Instead of pressing a mechanical release button exposing (or retracting) the nozzle, using gravity, the Wizard senses up or down (gravity) and extracts or retracts the nozzle into the body of the pencil. The patent is probably on the
catch that holds the mechanism locked at the writing angle. The catch releases when the angle of the body changes. The mechanism was a great find. I kinda like Eagles, too. Joe
