Pencils

This section has four groups. Graphite pencils are the classic sharpenable kind in a range of grades – from hard 4H to very soft 14B, plus HB pencils with an eraser tip. Mechanical pencils keep an even line and never need sharpening; their leads sit in a separate group and are chosen by diameter and grade. Special-purpose pencils cover Lyra and Edding carpenter’s, stone and glass pencils.
