Uni-ball Penmanship Writing Wooden Pencil - Hexagonal Body - 6B - Pack of 3

So far the best woodcased pencil I have ever used; You think Mitsubishi Hi-Uni is the best or Tombow Mono 100, well I think this pencil beats those by at least a notch. The lead is very wide [maybe 4mm] dark, and very stirdy [have never broken it even I tried with pretty heavy force], does not require frequent sharpening and is the smoothest graphite I have ever used. This is basically a pencil brush in my opinion. Simply FANTASTIC pencil.

Very wide lead, skims over the page. Agree with another reviewer that this is almost a lead brush. I really wish the body was wider and round, rather than hexagonal, but this is the perfect pencil for those of us who don't want to gouge our notes onto the page.

Yes, it smudges, but I'm using this to write marginalia in books where I don't scrub my hand over the writing, so I'd rather have the ease and comfort. Don't have to press down to write with this at all.

Back for more as these are now my go-to pencils.

Very thick lead, hard to write with when it becomes dull, it also smudges the paper. :(
