Review: Good quality, very comfortable, easy to grip. - I bought a pack of these for my 5-year old, who has difficulty holding the pencil in the 'beaky' position (the term that her teacher uses to describe a proper tripod grip). These are perfect for that purpose. Firstly, the dimensions are different from a normal pencil: it's almost triangular in cross-section, so it's easy to put the fingers in the right place. Secondly, the repeating dot pattern really does help improve her grip (which is surprising, since it seems to be just a layer of slightly thicker paint). In fact, they are so good, I have nabbed one for my own use. A great pencil for sketching and drafting. They sharpen easily, and the lead never seems to break. Really impressed. Will buy again.
Review: Perfect for a tough environment - As a carpenter one of my pet hates is poor quality pencils. There is nothing worse than sharpening a pencil only for the lead to pop out just as you get a good point (particularity if this is the 3rd or 4th attempt). This happens a lot with cheap run of the mill pencils as they tend to get dropped a lot on site and the lead cracks/breaks inside on impact with the floor so when you come to sharpen them it can be a really frustrating experience. Thankfully I don't suffer this problem any more using these Faber ones everyday for second fix/finish carpentry. I love the shape and quality and the grip really does work. They are often dropped and sometimes from a good height but I have yet to suffer the dreaded cracked lead syndrome. Happy days. :o)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is  there is a price error with pk of 10**
A: Total advertising error! And even then when I ordered 10 I only got sent 6!

**Q: hello are these pencils smudge proof ?**
A: HI Bobby, those pencils not 100% smudge proof, but there are the best once what I have found. The quality is very good, but you need a good pencil sharper. I have bought one from Faber Castell and I had no problem at all - The wood used for this pencil is very high quality. Worst to spend the money.

**Q: Are these jumbo pencils or regular thin ones? Thank you**
A: They are regular thin ones. They are a triangular  shape so there is more surface area for the fingertips to press against. They are excellent quality.

**Q: Is it right £2.90 for six? Bit confused as some reviews say this is expensive but for six I thought it sounded a good price?**
A: It's cheap I bought 6 packs with 12 pencils in each. :)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality, very comfortable, easy to grip.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great shaped pencil that helps kids hold it properly
*by C***S on 27 May 2022*

The triangle shape of this pencil, with little bumps for greater grip, helps children learn how to hold a pencil properly. This makes writing easier (and less painful) as they progress to pens.
