General's Woodless Graphite Pencils

2 Graphite Pencils + Sharpener

Softness: 8B (extra dark, very rich tone)

General’s Woodless Graphite Pencils are designed for sketching, shading, and creating bold, expressive strokes. Since they are made of solid graphite, you can use every side of the pencil for wide coverage or detailed drawing, giving you full control over your lines and textures.

For those new to art materials, woodless graphite pencils are pure graphite sticks with no wooden casing. Instead, they are coated with a thin layer of plastic to keep your hands clean. This protective layer comes off as you sharpen the pencil, just like a regular pencil.

A quick reminder: be careful when sharpening, as the exposed graphite can turn into fine powder. This can get messy on fabric or carpets, so it’s best to use a sharpener with a built-in container or catch guard. On the bright side, this loose graphite powder can also be used creatively for unique shading and blending effects.
