Did the BIC Matic Strong mechanical pencil just fly in from planet Krypton? One thing is for sure: the 3 super-tough HB leads that come with each pencil in this box of 12 make them the perfect pencils for copious note-taking and extended drawing sessions. Brilliantly coloured mechanical pencils with barrels in yellow, orange and pink that include a white eraser to make any writing task fun. They are retractable, so never need sharpening. The ever-ready 0.9 mm leads create wide deep black lines. Use the handy clip to hook it onto notebooks and pockets. Proudly made at the BIC plants in Europe based on unmatched expertise passed down the generations. When BIC acquired specialist pencil brand Conté in 1979, it carried on a long legacy of expertise in graphite lead. Box Contains 12 x Bic Matic Strong 0.9mm Mechanical Pencils
