  1. This is a brand new pencil – announced by press release in 2008. There is also a companion ruler pencil that I haven’t shown. Pencil products from the (current) Eberhard Faber company, which is owned by Staedtler, don’t seem to be exported. FIMO clay, on the other hand, is sold in several markets.

  2. This Futura? I wasn’t aware that this was such a distinguished pencil.

    It seems to be sold in units of 72 in Germany, which is probably more than most of us want. Let’s hope someone decides to sell it online.

    I also wish there were some nicely designed pencils that displayed some slightly more advanced math.

  3. There is an advanced math pencil on the market. It`s the Eberhard Faber/EFA pencil No.1822 displaying Algebra, Exponents, Trigonometry and Right-angled Triangle formulas.
