STAEDTLER Norica Pencil Class & Eraser Class Pack, 144ct

Exactly as expected.

Pencils are hard to sharpen and break easily.

Every school year we get those incredibly long supply lists. I think my 6 grader needed 6 dozen pencils or something. When I saw this I knew that I had better jump on the bargain. I sharpened 3 with a hand sharpener and 3 with the electronic sharpener. Both sharpeners produced perfect tips and no broken or uneven sharpened pencils. I like have the STAEDTLER blue pencils so my kids pencils won't get mixed up with their other classmates. The set includes the white eraser which are the standard now for classrooms. All the pencils functioned well and maintained sharpness for about a page of writing. Good deal definitely buy again at this price point.

Bought this for my students, almost 80% of the pencils are broken inside so they have to constantly sharpen it because the lead is broken…

As a teacher, these are my go to pencil and best for sharpening and eraser life. The other go to brand is not up to the quality control standards any more. I also like that I can easily identify "my" pencils when kids borrow them and need to return them.
