Write Dudes USA Gold Premium Cedar No. 2 Pre-Sharpened Pencils 12-Count (DDR56)

Better quality than I expected. Worked great for my classroom.

These are some of my favorite pencils, they’re durable, and sharpen well.

So my son is doing his homework and about every two minutes he stops to sharpen his pencil. . . I'm thinking he is just procrastinating and losing focus so I get on him about it and he shows me that his pencil keeps breaking and the lead just falls out. I tell my wife we need to purchase Dixon pencils because those are the best . . . surprise, surprise all his crappy pencils are Dixons. They just don't make them the same anymore.So I do a little research on what the best pencils are and not to my surprise I find a bunch of posts by school teachers saying they lose so much time because Dixon pencils along with so many other poorly made pencils force the kids to keep sharpening their pencils when the lead falls out frequently. Most of them had similar recommendations so I decided to purchase a few different brands to see which ones worked best for us. And so far we have been really happy with the quality of each of the following types that we tried.-Write Dudes USA Gold Premium Cedar No. 2. (Great all around pencil)-Write Dudes USA SIlver Wooden #2 (Great all around pencil)-Staedtler Rally Graphite #2 (Top notch)-General Pencil Company Cedar Pointe No. 2 Pencil (Very well priced and still great quality)-Paper Mate 12 Count #2 Mirado Black Warrior Lead Pencils, Medium Soft (Great pencils, nice darker color)I'd purchase any of the above again as long as they continue to make them the same way. I found a few other reviews by teachers who recommended others, but those few were in a much higher price range. Keeping it in a realistic price range the above 5 pencils are awesome. They write well and the lead does not break every two minutes. Perfect for keeping kids focused while doing their school work.

I don't have a pencil sharpener. Need to get one. But these came already sharpened and they work great. They're all the brown color pencils and easy to write and doesn't break. Buy the pencils worth the money

These are good pencils but the erasers are kind of squishy. I do Sudoku puzzles so I erase a lot. Lots of lateral movement when erasing with these pencils. If they were a little firmer I'd give it 5 stars.

These pencils are the best! I use them every day at school for writing, math, and even drawing. They come already sharpened, which is super helpful because I can use them right out of the box. The wood smells nice and they sharpen really well without breaking. The erasers work great too and don’t leave smudges.

Great price for good pencils for my son for Christmas. I don't know how, but he manages to lose pencils quickly at school, so I'm always looking for them 😂

Love the fact they're made in the USA!
