Sanford Natural. Good hold, good lead, good wood, good eraser. (not the best eraser, but good)

I have a precision Plus I use at home...I think it may be a bic. I guess that would be my only pencil I still use.

I don't use pencils... I mostly use a Bic Atlantis pen... it's one of those silent click ones with the rubber grip and clear plastic.

I'll second the ticonderoga real wood pencils... I hate the yellow painted ones... the natural wood pencils have a better feel to them...... and they taste better if you chew on them while concentrating.

I never use Pencils, but when I used to, I liked those Sanford click pencils... regular HB works best in such a thin lead.

Rxemedy. It is a huge pencil that fits my big hands, and the eraser almost never runs out and you can refill it. They never break on me but I end up losing one every 3-6 months.

Reminds me of my 11th grade history teacher. When handing out pencils before a test he would yell...

"THESE ARE GENUINE TICONDEROGAS !!"

Keep in mind that he was also the football coach, scary as hell, and a little bit crazy.

Sanford Clickster Grip

The grip is damn comfortable plus the side clicker allows for convenient clicking. I hate the bic's with the clicker on the top. Plus, when the eraser is gone, the Pentel eraser refills from Officemax can be persuaded to fit (about a 30 second operation) giving it long life. After awhile though, the grip starts to feel grody (sp?), probably from absorbing the oils from my skin.
