WHY DO YOU CALL THEM "RED PENCILS"??????

When I ordered a RED pencil was it a reasonable assumption that it would have RED lead????? Apparently not, these pencils have black lead!!!! I thought I inadvertantlly had a backup plan when I ordered a package of red leads because mechanical pencils usually only come with 1 or 2 leads in them. When after a few choice words for the copy writer, checking the description on Amazon and finding "color-RED",  I decided since I now had red leads to put in my VERY red pencils. The RED leads snap off with the slightest pressure so now I have a dozen unusable pencils which will cost me more to return than it is worth. Never will buy another Pentel product!!!!

Best pencils for school ever!  I teach 3rd grade, the barrel is perfect for handwriting.  Wish they would come out with replacement erasers!

Sheesh!  Is that how much this piece of junk costs?  $78?!  I don't know how long the one in the office been sitting there but I can tell you we don't use pencils a whole heck lot.  I think we go through 100 pens before we go through a pencil.
There's another Bostich one in the office, smaller, but just another piece of junk!

I'm looking for one to use in my class that I teach as volunteer.

Another post mentioned its being $34, I dunno....$10?

crayola colored pencils kit..................... the kit is handy, it keeps them neat in the case, and neat to chose another color.  The pencils made for a better art piece, keeps you in the lines more.  Being an older person, who loves to color, all but cartoon characters, the books I order with Amanzon, have been greatl  Many types to choose from,, floweres, birds, animal secenes, farm house, old building, you name they have it............ I've given them as gifts as well.

More than half were
The "R" for Robin....least popular I am sure! Only two batman and two flash. They do not even work on the pencil very well as they pop off every time you go to erase. Boo.

A teacher's favorite pencil! These sharpen well, the lead is solid and doesn't snap easily, and they have perfect erasers! A pencil is such a little thing, but they make a huge difference in your classroom. So many parents get the cheap pencils ( I used to as well!!) but these really will last longer! The biggest thing with a cheap pencil is the lead breaking, because then you sharpen, use more, etc. It is worth the money to avoid that!

Not like crayons used to be. Rather "waxy" and not real "colorful".  The Crayola company ought to go back to making "old fashioned" crayons that colored like they used to.  They'd probably sell more and certainly make more people happy - even if they had to pay more to get the "good stuff".

I don't have much experience with colored pencils, however I feel like I am constantly sharpening these. Other than that they work well. I do wish that they had less green and more reds/yellows and purple.

It's a cute dust collector...no pencil we tried fits in far enough to actually sharpen the pencil, and the grips that are meant to hold a pencil were obviously made for a smaller-diameter pencil. Apparently pencils are thinner in China, or wherever this thing was made.

Be careful of the red ones. They've dyed my white chairs red after several months of use.

They're really great. But what I hate is the white pencil. And its ONLY the white pencil that I've had a problem with. I've barely been using if in the 4 days that I've had it and its already down to 3 inches. Why? Becuase ive had to repeatedly sharpen the pencil and everytime it would break. Being as one of the most important pencils I used this is really stressful.

These are RED ink.  I am very disappointed.  I use many colored ink pens in special education.

Pencils do not sharpen well.  Pencils are bent and lead not centered in pencil causing uneven sharpening and splitting. Pencils made in Brazil. Company making shoddy product and using slave labor.  Not worth buying money wise or morally.

Well..they're pencils. Lots of tiny pencils, can't say there is anything wrong with them.

I love the feel of these pencils on the page.  Sometimes it feels just like satin as I stroke.  I was disappointed in the gold ... I was working on a Christmas picture with gifts, and the bow ended up looking brown rather than gold.  While there are several reds, what I really want would be more "zingy" -- I'm currently experimenting with various combinations to get a more "box of 8 red" red.  Other than that, good color selection.  For sure also buy the good sharpener!

I own the 72 set of Marco Reniors. I hope these came packaged as well as my set came and I was willing to wait for the shipping. Use if an oil based pencil is a wildly different experience from any other. I was using only prismacolors - now I have different options. I love a good pencil. Be careful and hand sharpen all colored pencils  that's my own personal opinion and I did not buy these I bought the Marco Reniors -  but from what I read these are the same and if they are we should buy them.
