TiconderogaWood-Cased Pencils, Pre-Sharpened, 2 HB Soft, Black, 10 Count

The pre-sharpened feature is a great convenience, allowing me to use the pencils straight out of the box without any hassle. The HB 2 softness provides a smooth writing experience with just the right amount of dark, legible lines, making them perfect for both writing and sketching.The black finish gives the pencils a sleek and professional look, and the wood casing feels sturdy and durable. The erasers are also top-notch, effectively removing graphite without leaving smudges or tearing the paper.

Great product

These have become my favorite pencils and I even found out that the schools require this brand now. I like the feel of the lead and it's nice and dark as well. They sharpen properly too. They're a #2/HB and if you draw or do artwork, HB has always been a nice pencil. They aren't cheap, but I'll pay more for quality.

These are great pencils and write smoothly with good dark lead color. Much better than yellow pencils. Better erasers too. If but these over yellow #2 any day!

These pencils are wonderful! We have been using them for about 10 years now and I don't really ever plan on using any other kind of pencil. Put it this way, if this company ever stops making these pencils, I will consider buying a bulldozer and outfitting it with a concrete shell.

My son does not put much pressure down when writing, which resulted in his writing being so light it was hard to read. I researched and found these pencils and figured I would give them a try. Much to my surprise, all pencils are not created equal. You can definitely see his writing MUCH better now that we are using these...its much darker and easier to see. The only negative is when we sharpen it it never seems to sharpen evenly on all sides. It's a bit annoying, but I will deal with it to be able to see his work.

Great strong pencils

Good product, it last easy to use.
