I bought a whole bunch of different types of pencils to see which one might be right for me. I love this Tri-Conderoga and feel like all those other pencils are just going to stay in the drawer. I like that it is a heavier pencil–the Tri-write seems too light for me. I’ll be sticking with this pencil for the foreseeable future.

You can’t beat anything by KUM, especially a magnesium or brass wedge.

I am DESPERATE for a great handheld pencil sharpener. Could you give me any advice?

[...] it’s a great sharpener, and I think the Dixon Tri-Conderoga would have been better with this than with the cheap-looking (though nicely-performing) plastic [...]

Could you possibly inform me as to who in my area would carry your variety of triangle shaped pencils? I live in the area of Smithfield. North Carolina. My zip code is 27577 and my area code is 919. The larger towns that surround me are Raleigh, Cary, Garner, Clayton and Goldsboro in the other direction. Thank you for any information that you might be able to provide. Have a Great Day and again, Thank You !

We bought a package of these for the workplace,and suddenly my colleagues have all become Triconderoga Hoarders and very possessive of their writing utensils even though we have a shared workspace. At one point, the Triconderogas started to disappear, and we found them stockpiled on our manager’s desk. The nerve! I’m going to have to carve my initials on mine. I agree with the above comments: an electric sharpener needs to be developed to sharpen these without wasting them.

Is there a pencil extender (with clip) that fits these pencils?

I am very happy to hear that some are still enjoying the comfort of the Tri-design. My late grandfather designed and engineered the original tri-design pencil called the Tri-Rex” for the Richard Best Pencil company in Springfield, NJ in the 1950′s. I know he took great pride in producing a quality product.

As I am a long time fan of the yellow and green Dixon Ticonderoga standard pencil, it was a natural progression to try the black and gold triconderoga. What a revolution! Comfort, quality and excellent design. BUT the revolution needs a companion product like an battery powered electric self centering sharpener. For my Ticonderoga pencils I use a Radio Shack desk sharpener powered by four AA cells that sharpen them quickly and perfectly every time. The only sharpener I have found beside the barely-acceptable)manual sharpener included in the box, is the old standby adjustable round hole sharpeners that allow the pencil to be mis-alined even with the closest fitting sized hole on the selection wheel. Where is the good old fashioned engineering excellence that produced the Radio Shack unit. Someone should step up and fill the need for a Triconderoga electric desk sharpener. Respectfully. John
