Pasler Professional Graphic Sketching Drawing Pencils 12 Count (9B)

I got these based on the reviews that they were really black. I don't find them so. They are darker then other 9B's but not really completely black.

Our daughter has Albinism and these work great for her! We just added pencil top erasers to them since they do not come with erasers given they are really meant for drawing/art. Erase just like a regular #2, but so much easier to when writing with them. Winner!

WOW, had no idea that you could buy a pencil like this. don't use it for art or anything, but for lists or notes, awesome. love the thick dark lines

Finally - a whole box of pencils with dark lead! Each one is 9b - not a variety pack. These pencils are great for doing crossword puzzles on paper, which is what I've been looking for forever.

I'm draw on newsprint and need soft lead pencils. I was using "all graphite" pencils which required constant resharpening and whittled down within an hour's use. These Pasler pencils are far superior. They are sturdier and have creamier lead. I've used my first one for several hours now with very little sharpening needed. I'll continue to buy this brand from now on!

These pencils come 12 to a box and are pre-sharpened. I use them for lubricating my violin strings at the contract points of the bridge and nut. Perfect.

Great product with dark lead. This is what my mother needed to do her many daily puzzles.

It goes on very, very smoothly and BLACK - not a darkish gray. It blends to about any value you want. And it erases with a white eraser leveraging no shadows behind.
