Great for drawing!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter loves art. She's always doodling, sketching, and drawing things. At only 11 years old, these were a great find for her. They're great for beginners for sure. We are no professionals, but for our needs, they work perfect!

Charcoal shatters
Recent purchase of Orange soft wrapped charcoal pencils in a box. Each one I've used thus far shatters when used to render tone. Very disappointing.

Fabulous Pencils to Work With
I've used these pencils for over two decades and I wouldn't use any other charcoal pencil. I ask my students to purchase these as well.

Great Quality
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Prang Charcoal Pencils are a great quality. The pencils have a dark rich black color and write smoothly.
It's easy to achieve a spectrum of different shades and great detail with these pencils. They work very well on
canvas or paper. I am very impressed and I highly recommend these pencils.

Artist quality
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They work nicely, but they have a bit of a squeak to them. The self sharpening is great for people who dont know how to sharpen a charcoal pencil. I'vee used Prang products before, but these are by far my favorite. I would recommend them to anyone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils work well all the same hardness but a good level of hardness for many different uses. My son and I love using these pencils during art time. We use charcoal and chalk to create pictures on black paper

Smooth drawing

My son loves to sketch anime so I thought these pencils would be perfect for him to do so with. The charcoal pencils are very smooth feeling while sketching or drawing. They are perfect for shading in areas and getting into detail. They are very simple to peel whe...

Awesome Charcoal Pencils
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoyed this Charcoal Pencils and there so easy to use and have such a clean fine smooth writing. I enjoyed that they don't need to sharpen it. Just remove the string. I also like that there none toxic. My son enjoy it to draw his anime in his sketch book. He enjoys the black and white effect.

Perfect
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent pencils for sketching. They've worked very well on a variety of media for me, and I especially love the performance and level of control these pencils give me for shading gradients. Superb choice for beginner and intermediate artists.

Really nice finish
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These soft Prang charcoal pencils have a much darker and richer black color than any other charcoal pencils I've tried! The ease of the paper wrap as opposed to the kind you have to sharpen is amazing!! These pencils are good for any stage of artistry - beginners through to experienced artists! Some brands seem to h...

They are just okay
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I guess I was expecting more from these pencils but my main issue is they were scratchy . I had to keep going over areas again because the pencils seem to skip long strokes. These should usually be smooth.

Awesomeness!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got my Ticonderoga Charcoal Pencils a few weeks ago and can't put them down! I love how smooth they are. I love the color depth of charcoal that they provide it's not heavy and not too light. Works great and very pleased

Smooth
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really great. I haven't worked with charcoal in a long time, but this re-energized me to start again. They're smooth and predictable. Really like the feel and diameter as well. Just a nice, solid pencil that I'd definitely come back to.

Fun!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had never used paper wrapped charcoal pencils like these before and was a bit apprehensive about the process, but the paper unwraps easily if you pull the little string, revealing more charcoal. How have I never seen these before? This is SO much better and less messy than holding charcoal sticks where you get stuff ...

Very easy to handle and made a big difference in the quality of my sketches. They don't seem to wear down very fast either, which is a big plus.

The design for unwrapping them is neat, but at times it is frustrating if it doesn't peel of right. Overall, these are fantastic with thick charcoal and endless possibiliti...

Great product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had the chance to try these charcoal pencils and they are amazing! I can sketch and draw like a pro. They are not messy, and the self sharpening feature is the neatest thing I've ever seen. Just pull the string and peel. The charcoal is strong, not flaky at all, and they don't make a mess.
