Ticonderoga Wood Pencils, Unsharpened, #2 HB .3 mm Lead, Yellow, 24 Count

When I get pencils I prefer Dixon Ticonderoga. Tried and True. They're good quality, and inexpensive. This pack of 24 will probably last me a couple years. They sharpen nice and write smoothly and leave a nice dark "mark" on the pages. The erasers work good as well.

Take it from a teacher, don't skimp. Or else your child will just be breaking off lead right after sharpening, or having an off centered lead, or the plastic decorative outer layer that sticks in the sharpener. Ticonderoga are THE name in pencils for a reason.

These are the better pencils in the market all teachers recommend for all my school kids and didn't take long to sharpen keep in mind these are not pre sharpened

Works great! High quality pencil, with consistent lead. Easy to sharpen, and the wood doesn't split in electric or mechanical sharpeners. Easy to hold. Great for art. Fantastic eraser.

They sharpen nicely and don't break. Only downfall is the erasers are falling out easily. I think it's just this batch as I've never had this issue with them before.

There is a reason why teachers prefer these pencils. The lead doesn't break when you sharpen them, they don't dull as quickly, and the eraser actually erases. Don't believe me,? Try sharpening these to pencils and using them and comparing these pencils to ones that cost half the price of these Ticanderoga pencils; You will see and feel the difference

Ticonderoga pencils used to be the best - with a nice size circumference providing a reasonably comfortable grip, a good eraser and dark lead that writes clearly and fluidly. Unfortunately, all of these features seem to have gone downhill; the pencils are skinnier and less comfortable to hold; the lead is little scratchier, lighter and doesn't seem to last as long, requiring more frequent sharpening. The eraser, although sturdy, is less effective; I can still see the markings after erasing. It's really too bad. Ticonderoga used to be the gold standard for pencils. While these new ones are adequate, they are just not as good as they used to be.
