pencil talk

The fourth in our series on Korean pencils.

The Fable is the top of the Dong-a line. It has the slogan, “The highest quality for general use.” Does this mean they are the highest quality, and can be used for general purposes, or does it mean that among the pool of “general use” pencils, the Fable has the highest quality?

The pencil is a rounded hexagonal shape, with black varnish and gold colored lettering. The pencil grade is highlighted with a grey band.

As to the quality - hmm, I am not able to convince myself that it is better than the regular Dong-a office pencil.

I would call it an unexceptional pencil.
