The Best Pencils for Trim Carpentry!! 😃👍💖

Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2024

Style: 8 mmVerified Purchase

I’ve been using these for years 😃

These pencils are #2.5 lead and sharpen to a beautiful point. If you use FastCap tape measures with the built in sharpener that works.

But I HIGHLY recommend getting the Red FaberCastell sharpener as well it will sharpen both sizes of the FC pencils and you have the option of standard point or narrower point sharpening.

Give them a try. 👍

THIS pencil is wonderful.... No... it REALLY is the BEST!

Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2014

Style: 8 mmVerified Purchase

So silly that I am Sooooo happy with a pencil, but I am! I hold my pencil very odd, right handed, resting on my ring finger with middle and pointer finger on top of pencil with thumb straight up and thumb "print" on top of pointer knuckle. So the triangle shape is perfect for comfort level. Another plus is the gripper feature, I didn't think of this at time of purchase, but I just went to put lotion on my hands and guess what? ... No slipping! With winter coming and doing hours of college algebra per day, it makes it much easier to hold a pencil for long periods of time. I've actually bought other pencils and did a bunch of searches for the " best pencil", obviously many people take their pencils seriously, funny enough, I am one of them now! The wood is smooth, point stays sharp, I press hard on my pencils, so it takes less force with this pencil. The lines are clear, and for leftys, there is minimum smearing and clean eraser( important for algebra). Funny how one of the longest reviews I have ever written has been for a pencil but the right one makes all the difference!

A better pencil !

Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2023

Style: 8 mmVerified Purchase

I thought it would be impossible to tell the difference between brands of pencils, but these actually do feel stronger than my normal brand, and the point stays sharp (or sharper). The eraser works better than many others; it does not smear, but does remove the pencil cleanly.

Great for sensory and grip issues

Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2021

Style: 8 mmVerified Purchase

My child hates writing and has sensory issues so wanted to try these out. They haven’t solved his hate for writing but they have improved his penmanship when he does write. The nodes give his hand the stimulation feedback he needs to not fidget so much and hold his grip. I have noticed a slight adjustment to his grip as well. So all in all, it was worth it for me and he loves them. He switches between these, the black Ticonderoga pencils (smooth sensation) and the First Ticonderoga #2 Pencils (for weight). The eraser isn’t a big issue for us because I bought him the white hi-polymer Faber castell white erasers as they erase better than those pink ones required by elementary schools.

Very smooth writing. Packing was terrible.

Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2022

Style: 8 mmVerified Purchase

These write very smoothly. I love the feel. Two things about my order were off-putting. The box these pencils came in had obviously gotten wet on one end at some point. The flap was water stained and crinkled and looked as if it had been handled quite a bit. The pencils seem to be in good shape. The packing that Amazon did was horrible. There were several items in one large paper padded envelope and the flap was barely sealed. It came open of it's own accord as soon as I lifted it from the post office box. Another envelope I received from Amazon at the same time was seal perfectly and very secure. Amazon just doesn't have much consistency concerning their shipping practices.

Great Comfortable and Competent Pencils

Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2024

Style: 8 mmVerified Purchase

Competent? You might question the description. These give you a good feel of quality graphite, they are comfortable to hold, the little nubs are interesting and I enjoy writing with it. I find myself doing more of my notes and entries in record books with it than with my Pilots as I would do in the past, as I like the pencil flow. So, in my determination, they live up to their description by the manufacturer and do their job immensely well.

Sharpen well, look good on my desk, and were not an extravagant purchase. Thus far, they seem perfectly durable.

Who would have thought a pencil could be better, well this one is. I have been using them for months and not only have they not broken, I have not needed to sharpen them yet, awesome. Plus I like the added stipple bumps for added grip. All in all a great buy, Best Buy of 2023 for me.
