Dixon Ticonderoga tried and true %23 2 pencil

When I get pencils I prefer Dixon Ticonderoga. Tried and True. They're good quality, and inexpensive. This pack of 24 will probably last me a couple years. They sharpen nice and write smoothly and leave a nice dark "mark" on the pages. The erasers work good as well.

These are %232 pencils. Get out your Scrantrons!

Title: 24 Pack of Yellow %232 Pencils — For When You Refuse to Be Defeated by a Blank Page Review: If you’re reading a review for basic yellow %232 pencils, life has brought you to a fascinating crossroads. Maybe you’re stocking up for school, preparing for a standardized test, or finally admitting that pens are just permanent mistakes waiting to happen. These pencils are exactly what you think they are: yellow, pointy, and suspiciously optimistic. They sharpen without drama, write smoothly, and the erasers remove errors with the quiet dignity of pretending the mistake never happened. The graphite is reliable, the wood doesn’t splinter, and they won’t judge you for spelling “definitely” wrong for the 700th time. Are they fancy? No. Do they connect to Bluetooth? Also no. Will they survive a backpack, desk drawer, or mild existential crisis? Absolutely. Perfect for classrooms, offices, crossword puzzles, and anyone who enjoys the comforting scratch of graphite on paper. Five stars for doing exactly what pencils have done since the dawn of homework. ✏️

I've heard that teachers and schools like this brand of pencil because it doesn't disappear as quickly as most pencils when it comes to sharpening, and the lead is the most accurate %232 as far as test taking goes. So I put Ticonderoga to the test, since both schools that my son has attended required Ticonderoga exclusively. Well, wouldn't you know, both things are true! They are good, sturdy pencils that stand up to all that my rough and tumble 5th grader and his friends have put their Ticonderoga pencils through all these years! So even though they aren't the cheapest, I don't mind buying them, because I know I will get at least half of the 24 pencils back at the end of the school year, so we are never without a pencil in our household.

Ticonderoga Pencils are %231

Ticonderoga pencils are hands-down the best pencils I’ve ever used and bought for my kids. They sharpen easily without breaking, write smoothly, and the erasers actually work without smudging or tearing the paper. The quality feels way better than cheaper brands, and they last a long time. Whether for preschoolers, for teachers, work, or for artists, these pencils are always reliable for all assignments— definitely worth the few extra cents.

Teacher and Parent's Best Friends

This may not be the cheapest brand, but you really can't beat the quality and durability of a Ticonderoga pencil. As a teacher and a parent, we don't use any other pencil brand. You can buy the cheaper brand, but you'll be going through pencils a lot faster.

Great writers

They sharpen nicely and don’t break. Only downfall is the erasers are falling out easily. I think it’s just this batch as I’ve never had this issue with them before.

Not as good as they used to be

Ticonderoga pencils used to be the best - with a nice size circumference providing a reasonably comfortable grip, a good eraser and dark lead that writes clearly and fluidly. Unfortunately, all of these features seem to have gone downhill; the pencils are skinnier and less comfortable to hold; the lead is little scratchier, lighter and doesn't seem to last as long, requiring more frequent sharpening. The eraser, although sturdy, is less effective; I can still see the markings after erasing. It's really too bad. Ticonderoga used to be the gold standard for pencils. While these new ones are adequate, they are just not as good as they used to be.

Worth the extra cost

There is a reason why teachers prefer these pencils. The lead doesn't break when you sharpen them, they don't dull as quickly, and the eraser actually erases. Don't believe me,? Try sharpening these to pencils and using them and comparing these pencils to ones that cost half the price of these Ticanderoga pencils; You will see and feel the difference

Ticondaroga pencils used to write much darker therefore visible on all my various papers but they seem to be off their game, maybe skimping on something. They just don't write as dark and at times you can barely see the writing at all.8
