The selection of pencils is huge today – not least because the demands on the products are low. Almost every day, a new supplier throws its hat into the hard-fought ring. However, there are a few models that have been able to establish their rank and name over the course of their long history. They almost always come from Germany or Japan, the still unchallenged world market leaders, and differ from the inferior competition in a number of ways: The high-quality lead is easy to sharpen, yet difficult to break, and it produces an even line without crumbling. The wooden shaft lies comfortably in the hand and does not splinter under the influence of a good sharpener. Our small selection is limited to the best models on the market.
