About the Pentel Art Multi 8 – Designer Set

The Pentel Art Multi 8 is widely considered the greatest multi-function sketch tool ever made. It solves the artist's oldest problem: "How do I carry a full color palette without a bulky pencil case?"

By consolidating eight robust 2.0mm leads into a single barrel, the Art Multi 8 gives you the freedom to sketch, highlight, and annotate anywhere—from a coffee shop table to a park bench—with zero friction.

The "Complete Studio" Box Set (PH804ST)

This is the Official Designer Set. It transforms the pen into a complete ecosystem, providing enough materials to keep you creating for years.

• 1. The Lead Holder (Pre-Loaded): Comes ready to use with 8 essential colors: Red, Blue, Brown, Orange, Yellow, Light Green, Sky Blue, and Pink.
• 2. The Expansion Pack (12 Refills): A separate case containing replacements for the standard colors, PLUS 4 Exclusive Colors: Black (Graphite), Green, Pale Orange (Flesh Tone), and Violet.
• 3. The Lead Pointer: A specialized pocket sharpener that restores a needle point to your leads for fine detailing.

Why It Wins for Journals & Thin Paper

The Multi 8 uses Pentel’s CH2 "Dry" Polymer Leads. Unlike felt-tip markers or ballpoints, these leads contain no liquid solvents.

• Zero Bleed-Through: You can safely use bold colors on delicate pages—like Bibles, Hobonichi Techos, or Tomoe River paper—without the color soaking through to the other side.
• Erasable & Blendable: Because it is graphite-based, you can blend colors with your finger or lift them with an eraser, giving you artistic control that ink cannot match.
