Faber-Castell9000 Jumbo Graphite Pencil Set - 2 Graphite Sketch Pencils (2B, 4B), Double Hole Pencil Sharpener, Dust Free Art Eraser - Graphite Pencils for Drawing, Sketching and Shading

Package includes one 2B and one 4B with sharpener and eraser.These are great pencils-smooth graphite, and larger than regular, which I like bc my hand gets less tired. I love that a sharpener is included since the jumbo size is hard to find. Also the green eraser produces less eraser worms than a standard eraser-yay!

Good graphite, great for quick sketches

This is the only sharpener I’ve found so far that will sharpen the jumbo 9000 pencil which is my favorite pencil. It’s a great overall pencil. Really hope they come out in a greater variety of hardnesses. Could use a harder pencil.

Two quality, darker jumbo pencils with a sharpener and eraser leaves me very happy.

I have the Faber castell Magnus watercolor pencils. They are big pencils. I wanted this larger sharpener to use with them because my Kum sharpener is too small. It's not the best sharpener. I think mine has a blade screwed in slightly akimbo. It's kind of choppy as it sharpens instead of a totally smooth motion. It does the job though without breaking the softer watercolor leads in the dürer Magnus pencils.The pencils included are good. Also the eraser. Worth the money as a set.

love these

I bought this set for the pencil sharpener to use with my Faber Castell Albrecht Durer and Polychromos pencils and it works great. It doesn't crack or break the pencils and I can get a sharp point without chewing up my pencils. The eraser has become my favorite because it doesn't stain the paper and erases both the Albrecht Durers and Polychromos with ease. The pencils are are great bonus as they write like butter and don't smear at all.

My son likely has dysgraphia, and as a part of that he has significant pain when he writes. (He’s in 6th grade.) He does love to draw though, so I decided to get these larger/thicker pencils. It is easier to write and easier to make a darker mark than many kinds of drawing pencils. He does sharpen them a lot to have a finer point though because these have thicker graphite. I bet these would be great for younger kids and might be worth trying for other pain like arthritis. I injured my writing arm/wrist in an accident and have writing pain since, and I was also able to use these without pain for longer than regular size pencils. The pain came eventually, but I was happy it held off.
