General’s Charcoal Drawing Pencils are handcrafted in the USA with General’s “Original” Charcoal formula dating back to 1889. They are handcrafted with responsibly harvested, straight grained, incense cedar wood to ensure smooth sharpening and strength. General’s Charcoal cores are bonded to the wood with an exclusive “Carbo-Weld” bonding process for added strength and reliability.

The set comes with six charcoal pencils: two 6Bs, and one each of 4B, 2B, HB, and charcoal white. The set also includes one Little Red All-Art Sharpener.
