Koala ToolsBear Claw Pencils (Pack of 6) - Fat, Thick, Strong, Triangular Grip, Graphite, 2B Lead with Eraser Suitable for Kids, Art, Drawing, Drafting, Sketching & Shading

My favorite pencil of all time. Why? So, I've always loved to draw, but my handwriting skills and long term stamina always decrease as I go. The unique shape of the pencil really eases the grip issue I have with regular, thin pencils. This just fits in your hand in such a weighty and satisfying way.The graphite is really smooth, and gives you a great point and a large level of greys that you'd want in a pencil. I appreciate the way it can get super sharp of a point for maximum control, but at the same time, keep that point for a while. It's obviously not "unlimited" sharpness, but for a pencil to stay this comfortable and sharp and durable and flexible at this price point, is hard to beat.I'm going to definitely try out their other products.

We got these for our 5yo who was struggling with drawing and writing (was late to choose a hand). The triangular shape and soft lead makes these a great choice for learners! They are just really nice pencils and I frequently grab them to make quick notes. I have some arthritis in my hands and they're actually much easier for me to write with when I have joint pain also! Only issue is we needed to get a larger barrel pencil sharpener (obviously?) and even then they don't quite fit without some convincing and tend to leave some sharp burrs around the edges that need to be picked or scraped off. Overall, I think these are a great product.

Great pack of pencils for little ones still developing their fine motor skills. The body is more like a soft triangle so very easy to grip. My son just started grade one and he loves these. I will definitely be picking up more when we run out. The only draw back in the don’t fit a generic circular pencil sharpener easily. It takes more focus to sharpen them is all

Larger pencil, easy for my little to grip. Much better than standard pencils. Nice big eraser too. Hard to break, we love them. Will buy again.

My two boys (6&7) use these pencils for their handwriting practice. We like that they are shorter, thick and triangular shaped to help with gripping. We also like the quality of the wood used and also the way the graphite writes, it’s very smooth and also very dark without having to apply so much pressure. They are a must have for beginner writers.
