I cannot find any difference in quality between these and Dixon Ticonderoga pencils other than the color which supposedly indicates the Ticonderoga is considered a premium pencil. I tried them side by side even did a blind test. Couldn't tell them apart. Both write smooth and quiet. Both are the same shade of darkness. The erasers were perfectly fine on the ones I bought. I use manual pencil sharpeners and The Tru Red takes a fine point without breaking off in the sharpener. The lead is centered in the pencil. The Ticonderoga has a nice woody smell when sharpened which the Tru Red does not but the quality of the Tru Red wood seems perfectly adequate. I think it's a great quality pencil at a great price.

Seriously hobbies still need regular pencils and the pack was economical enough to have them on hand. Not having to deal with initial sharpening was a plus.
