Metallic pencil sets are exactly what you need when you are completely tired of standard wooden tools breaking all the time. We have all experienced it. You are right in the middle of finishing a drawing or taking fast class notes, and your lead just snaps. Then you try to use your sharpener, and the tip breaks off inside it again. It is incredibly frustrating and ruins your focus. Most cheap market pencils are made with weak wood and low-grade graphite that simply cannot survive a heavy daily routine. If you want reliable stationary that actually lasts, you need a much stronger option.
