Uni Hi Wooden Pencil - 10B - Box of 12 (HU10B)

It is very good in quality.

I like 10B pencils. There is a lot of variety in what different companies call a 10B pencil. This is my favorite so far for a very dark, soft and smooth writer. It’s excellent for drawing.

10B! And lovely to use. Packaged beautifully. Perfect gift for any artist you know.

These are really lovely pencils. Very soft, black lines. Super smooth with no grittiness.Come in a very cool plastic box that would cost at least a fiver in stationers shop. 12 pencils in the box all the way from Japan for under fifteen quid. They are £3.50 each in hipster pencil shops. Bargain!

I recently got into the world of pencils after being a pen-only writer for years. I like dark, bold lines (for pens, I use Pilot G2 1.0mm) and I bought this pencil in 10B because it was the darkest lead I could find for a decent price—after tax, this set was $1.71 per pencil).To compare the more well known pencils, I also purchased Palomino BlackWing pencils—a 12 set is $2.08 per pencil; Mitsubishi 9850 HB pencils—a set of 12 is $0.68 per pencil; and a rOtring 600 mechanical pencil 0.7 for $26.40.This set is BY FAR my favorite! The case it comes in is overly impressive case to simply house a set of pencils. The little black divider that keeps the pencils in place isn't connected to the housing, this did get on my nerves because the divider would come out whenever I removed a pencil so I cut some strips of tape and connected the divider to the housing and now it's perfect.This pencils do smudge a little when writing so it may not be the best option for left-handed writers (I'd recommend Mitsubishi 9850 HB for lefties). The lead is super soft so don't expect the tip to stay sharp; for me, the tip is already dulled when I start my second letter. This doesn't bother me because I prefer bold, thick lines. I bought a set of cheap white (not pink perils) erasers at Walmart and the lines erase very well.Is the set worth the price? With the insanely good carrying case that you can repurpose long after you use up the pencils, yes. The pencils are nice and dark and the best alternative to a Pilot G2 pen. My coworkers make fun of me because now, when I pick up a standard #2 pencil, I cringe and start looking around for my good pencil! The difference in quality is a lot more drastic than I would have ever guessed.

These are some of the best pencils that I've ever used, the core is soft and smooth to draw with but strong, I've not yet broken one. I like to draw softly and the 10B is a dream. I highly recommend these Mitsubishi Hi-Uni 10B pencils.
