Ticonderoga Wood-Cased Pencils, Unsharpened, #2 HB Soft, Black, 12 Count

I've been using Ticonderoga pencils since grade school, and they continue to be my go-to for writing and sketching. This 10-count pack of black wood-cased, pre-sharpened 2 HB pencils is perfect for anyone who values smooth writing and reliable performance. 🖊️ Pros: - Pre-sharpened tips save time and are ready to use right out of the box. - The graphite is soft enough for smooth writing but firm enough to avoid constant breakage. - The black finish gives them a sleek, professional look. - Erasers are high-quality and don’t leave smudges or tear the paper. - Wood casing feels sturdy and sharpens cleanly without splintering. 📦 Cons: - Slightly pricier than generic brands, but the quality more than makes up for it. 💬 Disclaimer: I am not being paid or incentivized to write this review. Just sharing my honest experience as a longtime fan of Ticonderoga pencils. Whether you're jotting notes, sketching ideas, or filling out forms, these pencils deliver consistent results. Ticonderoga continues to set the gold standard for pencils. Highly recommend!

Excellent pencils. Worth the price! The only ones that actually stand up to a 10 year old boy who’s rough on things and loves to draw!

Excellent product and wrll delivered

Having seen some poor reviews I was prepared to be disappointed with the black pencils but they are not too bad. I have used the yellow ones for drawing and find them quite good and feel quite nice and the yellow are made from cedar. The black ones, however, are not made from cedar and the finish is not quite as good but for drawing they are still OK. I would not swap a yellow (made in Mexico from cedar) for a black (made in China from ?) But hey use what you have and close your eyes!

These are beautiful pencils. I would HIGHLY recommend a nice quality sharpener because they work exceptionally well when sharpened with a nice sharpener versus a not-nice sharpener. Work great for fine-point drawing as well as shading by using the side of the pencil. Love these for drawing out the sketch before ink. Erases quite clean, even after numerous pencils lines and attempts at an especially vexing drawing. Great value for the number of pencils you get. They do NOT arrive sharpened so please, grab yourself a nice sharpener as well. You'll be glad you did.
