The upside of these pencils is that they are probably okay for high school students because at this level, quality makes no difference. The downside is everything. Ferrules that fall off and do not stay put, junky graphite, horrible paint, varnishing and imprinting, and lastly the wood is light...it's not a good hardwood. I'm a big fan of the TURQUIOSE pencil but until the Newell Corp. brings them back to the USA for manufacturing, Mexico will continue to make rotten TURQUIOSE pencils. The first TURQUIOSE pencil was made by the great Eagle pencil Co. in 1901 right here in the US. These were some of the best drawing pencils made. Superior in every way and manufactured until the late 1960's. A serious artist and drafter will seek out these pencils.
