General's Cedar Pointe No. 1 / B Extra Soft Pencil

General's Cedar Pointe Extra Soft #1 Pencils are made entirely at General Pencil Company's Jersey City, New Jersey factory using California-grown incense cedar that has been sustainably harvested for over a century. The raw, uncoated natural wood barrel — free of any lacquer or sealant — gives a warm, natural grip that flows seamlessly into the tip, while the No. 1/B extra-soft graphite core lays down a smooth, dark line ideal for writing, sketching, and shading. The signature Semi-Hex® shape prevents rolling off desks, and the soft black eraser and black ferrule give the pencil a clean, minimalist look unchanged since 1889.
