For me, it started with fountain pens. Now, I’ve rediscovered the joys of pencils, as well!3yr ⋅ neur0mancer ⋅ r/pencils
Looking for new pencil suggestions! Scratchy and dark graphite is my preference. These are the pencils I use- the Mitsubishi & Brunnen are to soft. The Russian made ones give Scratchy feedback and are my favorite. Any suggestions welcome3mo ⋅ Duzer98 ⋅ r/pencils

New pencil day! Mitsubishi 9800, right on time for my almost finished Conte Indiana stub :D3yr ⋅ robinisbatman ⋅ r/pencils
The Mitsubishi 9850 has no business being as good as it is, given its price. Conversely, Palomino, et al should be ashamed of either their product or their pricing, maybe both.3yr ⋅ fugazidave ⋅ r/pencils
First time sharpening with a knife, is this bad? Will be used for baseball scorecards. (Note, this pencil came with a crack in the wood which is why I did this one first)2yr ⋅ jped ⋅ r/pencils

My ancient pencil sharpener, weighs almost a kilo and could power a hand drill. Has served me reliably for two decades and was old when I got it. (A little HDR to highlight the grit.)3yr ⋅ Dark-Arts ⋅ r/pencils
New pencil day, but Musgrave forgot the sample pencils. I'm so hurt but excited!1yr ⋅ Mrdrewit ⋅ r/pencils

My daily carry for the last 5 years or so - the tin is closer to 15 years old though!2yr ⋅ perspicus ⋅ r/pencils
Removed the paint from a Black Polymer 999 and gave it a few coats of clear lacquer. Next to the unlacquered 9800EW. Both pretty nice pencils.2yr ⋅ IntelligentCattle463 ⋅ r/pencils

What’s your opinion on these pencils (look wise)? I’ve seen some say that they’re lackluster, but I think they’re cool looking, they do look boring but they remind me of like 80s math textbooks (it feels for some reason very stand and deliver ish to me)1yr ⋅ roybean99 ⋅ r/pencils

After only using ye old cheap school pencils, I decided I wanted to try some nicer ones, and sort of impulse bought all of these! Safe to say I probably won't be running out of pencils any time soon...2yr ⋅ _TheEyeOfCthulhu_ ⋅ r/pencils
Nobody asked, but I consider this to be ideal pencil length. I actually keep a reserve of pencils around this length to enjoy when I'm in a really good writing groove and can especially appreciate them3yr ⋅ fugazidave ⋅ r/pencils
