[Staedtler](https://www.staedtler.jp/?ref=news.knockology.com) Japan will raise prices on selected products on **July 1**, including familiar drafting pencils and the parts that keep them working. Its June 1 notice cites repeated increases in raw-material and transport costs.

The accompanying list goes well beyond complete pencils. It includes leads, erasers, nose assemblies and knock parts—a useful reminder that a price revision can reach the maintenance drawer, too.

## The small components add up

Listed silver-series replacement nose assemblies move from **¥350 to ¥400**. The corresponding 925 25 knock parts rise from **¥300 to ¥350**. The list also includes selected [Avante-garde](https://www.staedtler.jp/?ref=news.knockology.com) components and drafting equipment.

This is a selected-product revision, not a blanket percentage increase across Staedtler. Model codes matter: the 925 15 rows, for example, should not be treated as a price announcement for every limited metal edition carrying that family name.

Price basis cross-check: [Staedtler’s drafting-pencil specifications](https://www.staedtler.jp/products/sharp/seizu.html?ref=news.knockology.com) distinguish base prices from tax-inclusive prices.

These are Staedtler Japan’s prices. The notice does not announce a corresponding U.S. price change; U.S. retail prices and imported stock depend on the seller.
