Klein Tools 86501 - Skribes™ Mechanical Marker with Spare Lead - Built-In Sharpener
The Klein Tools 86501 Skribes™ is a mechanical marker built for precision, made to handle tough jobsite surfaces like OSB, concrete, steel, drywall, and timber. Its 2.8mm durable graphite lead leaves clear, bold marks that stay visible even on rough, dirty, or uneven materials.
Designed with the trades in mind, it includes a built-in sharpener inside the cap, and a metal extended needle nose tip that fits into holes, tight spaces, and hard-to-reach areas. The triangular anti-roll body stops it from sliding away, and the clip-on holster with grip teeth keeps it close at hand-on your belt, apron, or pocket. It's tough, practical, and ready for real work.
