The Camlin Kokuyo Drawing & Sketch Pencil Pack of 6 provides six specific grades from HB to 10B. Crystalline graphite cores allow for consistent shading and high-contrast tonal work. Hexagonal wood casings prevent these tools from rolling off work surfaces during use.
Key Features
- Crystalline Graphite Core: Compressed crystalline structure for high-density marks. Dark tones stay consistent without applying heavy pressure.
- Break-Resistant Lead: Bonded core construction within the wood barrel. Pencils survive drops on hard floors during long sketching sessions.
- Hexagonal Grip: 17.5 cm length with a six-sided outer profile. Provides a stable grip when performing complex cross-hatching or detail work.
- Six-Grade Range: Includes HB, 2B, 4B, 6B, 8B, and 10B options. This set covers the full spectrum from light outlines to deep shadows.
- Smudge-Resistant Coating: Matte outer finish on the pencil body. Reduces grip slips caused by high humidity or hand sweat.
