this set is a great value to me, i love the price and color selection.

Best pencils I’ve tried so far.

I have used Stabilo for over 30 years, thought I would give these a try. I am very pleased with them. The color range seems to fill in where the Stabilo is weak(flesh tones). They are comparable with Stabilo in quality. They feel like they may be slightly softer than Stabilo but do not crumble under stress. They sharpen wonderfully, and transfer to the ground with finesse. Highly recommend-although they are not made in Holland, as is printed on the heel of the pencil but in the Czech Republic.(absolutely love the cardboard case with drawers).
