Ticonderoga Wood-Cased Pencils, Pre-Sharpened, #2 HB Soft, Yellow, 30 Count

Our go-to pencils every year for school supplies. They are reliable, high-quality, and always meet our needs. The #2 HB lead is perfect for everyday writing, and these pencils are pre-sharpened, which is a huge time-saver. I haven’t had any issues with the lead breaking or snapping, which is something I’ve experienced with other brands. The grip is smooth, and the lead writes clearly without any skipping. Amazon is the only place I can consistently find the exact quantity and specifications that are required by my child’s school. The 30-count pack is a great value, The price on Amazon is competitive, and the pencils always arrive in perfect condition.

These pencils are a classic for a reason. They write smoothly, sharpen easily, and the graphite is consistent without being too hard or too soft. The pre-sharpened feature is especially convenient, making them ready to use right out of the box without the hassle of sharpening before class or work. The wood casing is durable and resists splintering, and the erasers are soft yet effective, removing marks cleanly without smudging or tearing the paper. The pencils are comfortable to hold for long periods, which is important for students and anyone who writes frequently. Teachers, parents, and students all seem to agree that these are among the best pencils you can buy. They may cost a bit more than generic brands, but the reliability and quality make them well worth it.

I’ve been using Ticonderoga pencils for years, and they never disappoint. The graphite writes smoothly and evenly, the wood sharpens cleanly without splintering, and the erasers actually remove marks without smudging. You can really feel the quality compared to cheaper brands. Whether it’s for schoolwork, note-taking, or sketching, these pencils always perform perfectly. Definitely worth the few extra cents for something that lasts and works every time!

This is by far my family's favorite writing pencil. The graphite is smooth and fluid when you write. You can really tell the quality of the pencil when you sharpen it, too. Cheap pencils break easily and sharpen unevenly leading to broken graphite tips. We used to use cheap pencils, but when I realized my kids were going through them too fast and the leads kept breaking, I did a little research and decided to buy these. Now this is all I buy for them. They sharpen great and don't break right after sharpening like the cheap ones. If you're on the fence, I say, just buy these. You'll thank me later because these are quality pencils that last. Now, if only someone could create an eraser that lasts longer.

Great pencils, better eraser than the Amazon brand. Eraser doesn't fall apart after one use

Ticonderoga never disappoints! These #2 HB pencils write smoothly and feel comfortable to hold, even during long writing sessions. The wood casing sharpens evenly without splintering, and the graphite produces a consistent, dark line without breaking easily. The pre-sharpened feature is super convenient — they’re ready to use right out of the box. I also appreciate the high-quality erasers, which remove pencil marks cleanly without tearing the paper. A classic, reliable choice for school, office, or home.

Still the best pencils out there! They come pre-sharpened, write smoothly, and the erasers actually work. I always keep a box on hand for school, work, and home. Reliable and high quality every time.

Best pencils ever and the lead don’t break as easy

Excellent pencils

They are well made, professional, and work well

Previously got a set of these pencils from the States and found them very good. After a couple of years using them for Sudoku, crosswords etc needed replacements and was delighted to find them on Amazon. What I liked about them was a good black soft lead and the erasers do not perish over time. Well worth the price.
